Mainstay Medical International plc announced that it has received regulatory approval from the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) for ReActiv8, its implantable restorative neurostimulation system to treat disabling Chronic Low Back Pain. This approval confirms inclusion of ReActiv8 in the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG), enabling commercialization throughout Australia. The Company plans to submit an application for ReActiv8 to be included in the Prostheses List of reimbursed products, with a reimbursement decision expected in the third quarter of 2020. The Prostheses List identifies implantable devices eligible for reimbursement from all private health insurance funds in Australia. ReActiv8 is an active implantable medical device designed to treat people with chronic low back pain (CLBP). ReActiv8 electrically stimulates the nerves that supply the lumbar multifidus muscle, a key stabilizing muscle of the low back, to elicit contraction of the muscle which can lead to restoration of control over time, allowing the back to recover from CLBP. Low back pain is the number one cause of years lived with disability worldwide and is a leading cause of activity limitation and work absence throughout much of the world, imposing a high economic burden on individuals, families, communities, industry, and governments. While treatment options exist for patients with CLBP of a predominantly neuropathic origin, for the large portion of patients whose pain is predmoniantly nociceptive (or mechanical) in nature there are few therapies beyond drugs and injections, both of which offer temporary relief at best. ReActiv8 is intended for those patients without indications for spine surgery or spinal cord stimulation and who have continuing pain despite medical management. Mainstay is a medical device company focused on commercializing an innovative implantable restorative neurostimulation system, ReActiv8®, for people with disabling Chronic Low Back Pain (CLBP). The Company is headquartered in Dublin, Ireland. It has subsidiaries operating in Ireland, the United States, Australia, Germany and the Netherlands, and is listed on the regulated market of Euronext Paris (MSTY.PA) and Euronext Growth operated by Euronext Dublin (MSTY.IE).
