NetworkNewsBreaks – InVivo Therapeutics Holdings Corp. (NASDAQ: NVIV) Updates on INSPIRE Study; Pulls from New 52-Week Low

Company: InVivo Therapeutics Holdings Corp. (NVIV)
Category: News

Shares of InVivo Therapeutics (NASDAQ: NVIV) are down 27.5% mid-day, lifting off a new 52-week low of $1.70 set this morning. The company earlier today issued an update on the progress of its INSPIRE Study designed to demonstrate the safety and probable benefit of the Neuro-Spinal Scaffold™ for the treatment of complete thoracic spinal cord injury (SCI). InVivo reported overall patient improvements, as well as a temporary enrollment halt due to the death of a patient, unrelated to the company’s treatment. “The most recent patient to enroll into the INSPIRE study, who was implanted in late June 2017, passed away suddenly at a rehabilitation facility following discharge from the hospital. The cause of death was deemed by the Principal Investigator at the site to be unrelated to the Neuro-Spinal Scaffold™ or implantation procedure. This represents the third death in INSPIRE to date, all of which have been deemed to be unrelated to the investigational product or implantation procedure by each respective site’s Principal Investigators. The company has elected, based in part on discussions with the company’s independent Data Safety Monitoring Board, to implement a temporary halt to enrollment as it engages with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to determine whether any changes to patient enrollment criteria related to patients who may have a higher mortality risk or other study modifications are deemed necessary,” the company stated in the press release. InVivo trades in a 52-week range of $1.70-$7.93.
