Business Wire
Vivani Medical, Inc. (NASDAQ: VANI) (the “Company” or “Vivani”),
an innovative, preclinical-stage biopharmaceutical company that
develops novel, long-term drug implants, announced today that it
will present at the upcoming Annual Boulder Peptide Symposium at
11:20 am PST at the Napa Valley Marriott Hotel and Spa in Napa,
California on September 19, 2023.
Dr. Adam Mendelsohn, CEO, will provide updates on the company,
its proprietary NanoPortal™ implant technology and the company’s
lead program, NPM-119, a miniaturized, 6-month, GLP-1 implant
currently under development for the treatment of type 2 diabetes
and obesity.
About Vivani Medical, Inc.
Leveraging its proprietary NanoPortal™ platform, Vivani develops
biopharmaceutical implants designed to deliver drug molecules
steadily over extended periods of time with the goal of
guaranteeing adherence, and potentially to improve tolerance to
their medication. Vivani’s lead program NPM-119 is a miniaturized,
6-month GLP-1 implant under investigation for the treatment of
patients with type 2 diabetes and is also under consideration for
the treatment of obesity. NPM-119 is designed to provide patients
with the opportunity to realize the full potential benefit of their
medication by avoiding the challenges associated with the daily or
weekly administration of orals and injectables. Medication
non-adherence occurs when patients do not take their medication as
prescribed. This affects an alarming number of patients,
approximately 50%, including those taking daily pills. Medication
non-adherence, which contributes to more than $500 billion in
annual avoidable healthcare costs and 125,000 potentially
preventable deaths annually in the U.S. alone, is a primary and
daunting reason why type 2 diabetes treatments face significant
challenges in achieving positive real-world effectiveness.
Vivani’s wholly owned subsidiary Cortigent, formed to continue
the business of Second Sight, is developing targeted
neurostimulation systems intended to help patients recover critical
body functions. Investigational devices include Orion®, designed to
provide artificial vision to people who are profoundly blind, and a
new system intended to accelerate the recovery of arm and hand
function in patients who are partially paralyzed due to stroke. The
company has developed, manufactured, and marketed an implantable
visual prosthetic device, Argus II®, that delivered meaningful
visual perception to blind individuals. Vivani continues to assess
strategic options for advancing Cortigent’s pioneering
technology.
