Vericel Corporation Announces FDA Approval and Commercial Availability of MACI Arthro Vericel Corporation announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved a supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) expanding the MACI® (autologous cultured chondrocytes on porcine collagen membrane) label to include arthroscopic delivery of MACI to repair symptomatic single or multiple full-thickness cartilage defects of the knee up to 4 cm2 in size. MACI ArthroTM provides a less invasive technique compared to the current approach, allowing surgeons to evaluate and prepare the defect site as well as deliver the MACI implant through small incisions using custom-designed MACI Arthro instruments. MACI is the first FDA-approved cellularized scaffold product that applies tissue engineering processes to grow cells on scaffolds using healthy cartilage tissue from the patient's own knee. MACI is the only restorative biologic cartilage repair product approved for arthroscopic administration. MACI Arthro incorporates the advantages of an arthroscopic approach with the long-term durability and established clinical results of MACI. The custom MACI Arthro instruments are designed to treat the most common defects in the MACI addressable market, which are 2-4cm2 defects on the femoral condyles, representing approximately 20,000 patients per year or one-third of the $3 billion addressable market for MACI.

Vericel Corporation Announces U.S. Commercial Availability of NexoBrid (Anacaulase-Bbb) for the Treatment of Severe Thermal Burns in Adults Vericel Corporation announced the U.S. commercial availability of NexoBrid®? (anacaulase-bcdb) for the removal of eschar in adults with deep partial- and/or full-thickness thermal burns. Eschar removal is a critical first step in the treatment of burns as it can reduce inflammation, stop burn progression, as well as mitigate infections and sepsis. Surgical excision, which is the current standard of care for eschar removal, often results in the removal of viable tissue. NexoBrid selectively targets eschar while preserving viable tissue, enabling more rapid and precise eschar removal, which may reduce the need for subsequent skin grafting and lessen patient trauma. Each year, approximately 40,000 people are hospitalized in the U.S. for burn-related injuries, and of those patients, more than 30,000 of them require some level of eschar removal, representing a $300 million addressable market for NexoBrid. NexoBrid can be applied in up to two applications of four hours each. A first application of NexoBrid may be applied to an area of up to 15% body surface area. A second application of NexoBrid may be applied 24 hours later, with a total treated area for both applications of up to 20% Total Body Surface Area (TBSA). Reported Earnings • Aug 03

Vericel Corporation Announces Publication of Positive Results from Retrospective Study by the Burn and Reconstructive Centers of America of Patients with Large Posterior Trunk Burns Treated with Epicel Vericel Corporation announced the publication of results from a retrospective study conducted by the Burn and Reconstructive Centers of America (BRCA) of 40 patients with large posterior trunk burns treated with Epicel® (cultured epidermal autografts) in the Journal of Burn Care & Research. Severe burns on posterior trunk surfaces present special consideration since the posterior surfaces bear the major portion of the body weight. The study evaluated the success of engraftment in patients receiving Epicel for posterior trunk burns with total burn surface area (TBSA) =30% treated at three high-volume burn centers within the BRCA between March 2016 and December 2019.The retrospective study consisted of 40 patients with a mean age of 38 years (68% male, 32% female) with burn etiology fire/flame (78%). The mean TBSA was 56% (range 30% to 95%), with a mean revised BAUX Score of 97 (range 49 to 141). The location of the burns on the posterior trunk were ‘back only' (55%), ‘back and buttocks’ (27.5%), and ‘buttocks only' (5%). The median percentage of area covered by burn in all three categories was 100%. Key findings include: 83% (33/40) of patients with posterior burns had successful engraftment after one or two applications of Epicel. 70% (28/40) of patients treated had successful engraftment after one application of Epicel. These patients had younger mean age, lower mean %TBSA, burn location on the posterior trunk of the back only (vs. back and buttocks or buttocks only), and Epicel was applied over split thickness skin graft (STSG). 90% survival rate following one or two applications with Epicel and/or Epicel plus STSG. Of the four patients who died, three were =55 years of age (range 55 to 71 years) with %TBSA =42% (range 42% to 74%), the fourth patient was under 18 with 95% TBSA. The mean revised BAUX Score for these four patients was 122 (range 111 to 129) which is associated with an approximately 67% mortality (33% survival) rate. Epicel® (cultured epidermal autografts) is authorized for use in adult and pediatric patients who have deep dermal or full thickness burns comprising a total body surface area greater than or equal to 30%. It may be used in conjunction with split-thickness autografts, or alone in patients for whom split-thickness autografts may not be an option due to the severity and extent of their burns. The effectiveness of the device for this use has not been demonstrated. Announcement • Jul 21
