MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Dec. 04, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NeuroPace, Inc. (Nasdaq: NPCE), a growth-stage medical technology company focused on transforming the lives of people living with epilepsy, today announced a first of its kind strategic collaboration that will leverage RNS System’s unique biomarker monitoring and data analysis capabilities. This collaboration will evaluate biomarker changes in currently implanted RNS System patients that have enrolled in a clinical-stage biotechnology company’s (“Company”) clinical trial of its product candidate.
“This groundbreaking collaboration demonstrates the value that our RNS System can provide through its proven ability to collect and analyze data, which is then used to generate insights that can help inform treatment strategies,” said Joel Becker, President and Chief Executive Officer of NeuroPace. “We are excited to showcase the tremendous value of our data and look forward to further building on our artificial intelligence and machine learning capabilities to continue to harness the value of RNS System data in helping patients.”
Under the terms of the agreement, NeuroPace will make available certain information and insights about currently implanted RNS System patients that have also enrolled in the Company’s Phase 2a proof-of-concept study and consented to providing the Company data obtained through their RNS Systems. Information provided by NeuroPace will be used by the Company to help them evaluate the impact of their product candidate on certain biomarkers of patients with focal onset seizures. NeuroPace anticipates the total revenue from this collaboration to be approximately $3.7 million. The Agreement is broken out into four phases through the fourth quarter of 2025, with certain milestones correlating to each phase, the majority of which are planned to be completed prior to the end of 2024.
“Extending the benefit of the RNS System to improving clinical trial execution within the biotechnology and pharmaceutical space demonstrates NeuroPace’s ability to leverage proprietary, RNS-generated data to help more people living with epilepsy,” said Martha Morrell, M.D., Chief Medical Officer of NeuroPace. “Our team has analyzed retrospective data from thousands of patients demonstrating that biomarker changes captured by the RNS System may be predictive of clinical outcomes. We are excited to use these same tools to prospectively monitor patients to help determine the impact of this product candidate to patients implanted with the RNS System.”
"NeuroPace’s unique ability to monitor, sense, record brain activity and treat patients allows those implanted with the RNS System to benefit from optimized care as a result of clinicians having tailored insights into the impact of neuromodulation therapy, lifestyle and medical management on the patient’s epilepsy," Becker also noted. “This collaboration is our first opportunity to offer these same types of insights into potential future therapies and help further refine how patients implanted with the RNS System can be optimally treated. It is an initial step into extending the benefits of and generating value for patients and clinicians from our data monitoring and analysis capabilities with the potential to provide a basis for additional future collaborations.”
