BORDEAUX, France & BOSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Regulatory News:

IMPLANET (Euronext Growth: ALIMP, FR0013470168, eligible for PEA-PME equity savings plans) (Paris:ALIMP), a medical technology company specializing in vertebral and knee-surgery implants, today announces that its JAZZ Cap® technology has been patented in Japan.

Ludovic Lastennet, CEO of IMPLANET, commented: “Japan represents the world’s third largest market in the treatment of spinal disorders after the United States and China. We felt that it was essential to protect this new generation of Jazz Cap® products in this high potential market. Being granted this patent is a major step for the development of our solution, which is now covered in the United States, Europe and Japan, and also provides us with a major opportunity on the Japanese degenerative spine surgery market.”

Primarily developed to facilitate the treatment of adult degenerative disorders, JAZZ Cap® is an exclusive, unique and comprehensive solution for protecting the fixation of screws in poor quality bone, a factor in 10 to 30% of vertebral fusion cases¹. This technology, which has already received CE mark in Europe and FDA clearance in the United States, represents an alternative to cement augmented pedicle screws and addresses a potential market estimated at 2.5 billion dollars².

The JAZZ Cap® solution has been used in the United States in surgeries in complex adult deformity indications and has provided encouraging post-operative clinical results. This latest protection further expands Implanet’s patent portfolio, which includes 31 patents specifically devoted to the JAZZ^TM platform.
