Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure
On September 22, 2018, REVA Medical, Inc. (“REVA” or the “Company”) presented four key data sets demonstrating the capabilities of the Company’s Fantom® bioresorbable scaffold (“BRS”) at the Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics (“TCT”) conference being held September 21st through September 25th in San Diego, California, USA. The presentations included new procedural data from an indication expansion study in patients experiencing acute heart attacks as well as positive clinical and imaging results of the Fantom BRS through two years.
FANTOM STEMI Procedural Results
New data from the FANTOM STEMI pilot study showed procedural success and clinical utility of the Fantom bioresorbable scaffold in a series of nine patients with acute heart attacks called ST-segment elevated myocardial infarction (“STEMI”). Patients experiencing a STEMI are a new patient population for Fantom. While these patients have a higher risk of complications than stable patients, the characteristics of their arterial blockages are typically well suited to BRS. The data were presented by Dr. Lukasz Koltowski from the Medical University of Warsaw in Warsaw, Poland.
FANTOM II Clinical Results
Two-year clinical results from the FANTOM II study were presented by Dr. Yuichi Saito from the Yale University School of Medicine in New Haven, Connecticut, USA. The data demonstrated safety and efficacy of Fantom at two years with the following outcomes:
| • | Low 5.0% rate of Major Adverse Cardiac Events (“MACE”) |
| • | A single very late scaffold thrombosis event for a rate of 0.4% |
FANTOM II Imaging Results
Two-year optical coherence tomography (“OCT”) imaging results from the FANTOM II study were presented by Dr. Neils Holm from the Aarhus University Hospital in Aarhus, Denmark. The data showed an excellent healing profile for Fantom with sustained vessel lumen patency and no evidence of chronic scaffold recoil through two years.
FANTOM Clinical Review
Dr. Ulf Landmesser, Professor of Cardiology at Charité Universitätsmedizin Berlin in Berlin, Germany delivered a comprehensive presentation of the Fantom BRS program. In addition to reviewing available clinical data, Dr. Landmesser provided an update on the Fantom Post Market Trial which is currently enrolling in Europe to evaluate the safety of Fantom in routine clinical practice.
The presentation materials delivered at the conference are attached hereto. Copies of the presentations are also posted under the Investor Relations section of REVA’s website at www.revamedical.com.
