Nyxoah Announces CE-Mark Indication Approval to Treat\u00a0<\/strong>Complete Concentric Collapse (CCC) Patients<\/strong><\/p>\n

Notified Body DEKRA approves IFU changes to remove warning regarding CCC patients<\/em><\/p>\n

Mont-Saint-Guibert, Belgium \u2013 October 4, 2021, 10:30pm CET \/ 4:30pm ET \u2013 Nyxoah SA (Euronext Brussels\/Nasdaq: NYXH)\u00a0<\/strong>(\u201cNyxoah\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d), a medical technology company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative solutions to treat Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), today announced that DEKRA Notified Body has approved the Company\u2019s proposed indication for the Genio\u00ae system to treat patients with a Complete Concentric Collapse (\u201cCCC\u201d). DEKRA attributed the updated Genio\u00ae therapeutic indication to the BETTER SLEEP study data presented by the Company, concluding that \u201cthe effectiveness results and safety profile for both CCC and non-CCC patients are comparable\u201d. Patients, therefore, do not have to undergo a Drug-Induced Sleep Endoscopy (DISE) procedure to determine if they have CCC at the soft palate level prior to Genio\u00ae implantation.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are thrilled that the Notified Body has approved the Genio\u00ae system as a treatment option for the large population of CCC patients. This will expand our total addressable market by at least 30%.\u201d, said Olivier Taelman, CEO of Nyxoah. \u201cCombined with the Breakthrough Device Designation granted by the U.S. FDA last month, the DEKRA approval provides further validation that our bilateral approach is well suited for both non-CCC and CCC patients. This broader indication will help accelerate our commercial activities in key European markets while we continue to pursue a clinical and regulatory pathway to make Genio\u00ae available to both non-CCC and CCC patients in the U.S.\u201d<\/p>\n

Prof. Dr. med. Clemens Heiser, MD, PhD \u2013 Head of ENT Sleep Laboratory at Klinikum Rechts der Isar \u2013Technical University of Munich and worldwide recognized Key Opinion Leader in sleep surgery commented: \u201cUntil now, Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) patients presenting a CCC were not suitable for marketed unilateral hypoglossal nerve stimulation systems and had to be excluded from this technique. With previous research from my group, bilateral stimulation seems to open the soft palate even with CCC. Bilateral neurostimulation solution is a new hope for these patients in need for a safe and efficient therapy.\u00a0\u00a0A full-body 1.5T and 3T MRI compatibility combined with CCC indication for the Genio bilateral stimulation solution will change a lot in the future for hypoglossal nerve stimulation therapy.\u201d<\/p>\n
