ClearPoint Neuro to Present Investigational Research and Showcase Novel Innovations at the 26th American Society of Gene & Cell Therapy Annual Meeting in Los Angeles
SOLANA BEACH, Calif., May 10, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ClearPoint Neuro, Inc. (NASDAQ: CLPT) (the “Company”), a global therapy-enabling platform company providing navigation and delivery to the brain, today announced it will present investigational research and exhibit at the 26th American Society of Gene and Cell Therapy being held in Los Angeles, CA from May 16 to May 20.
The following original research abstracts will be presented in the Poster Session:
- May 17 from 12 PM – 2 PM at Board 367: Translational Volumetric Capacity of the Cerebrospinal Fluid Compartment Between Clinical and Pre-Clinical Subjects
- May 18 from 12 PM – 2 PM at Board 1160: Data Compilation and Novel Methods for Convection-Enhanced Delivery Using a SmartFlow® Cannula for Gene Therapy Products to the Nervous System in the Pre-Clinical Setting
Additionally, the Company will speak at PTC Therapeutics’ Exhibitor Showcase “Pioneering in Targeted Gene Delivery to the Brain” on May 17 from 8:15 AM – 8:45 AM in room 511.
Innovations to be showcased include the ClearPoint Maestro® Brain Model which will be shown at ASGCT for the first time since full market release. Maestro is designed to enable highly accurate ClearPoint interventions under MRI guidance by facilitating patient-specific, multi-modal fusion of anatomical information for accurate target identification and trajectory planning. The software, which was originally licensed in 2020 from Philips, a global leader in health technology, gained FDA clearance in 2022. Recent announcements related to Maestro include a partnership with NE Scientific to integrate a gene therapy infusion tool into the model. Attendees who visit the booth (#454) will experience hands-on how Maestro can assist the Company’s pharmaceutical partners with volume calculations for drug delivery trials. The software is currently integrated into pre-clinical and clinical trials and installed for clinical use at select hospitals in the United States.
The Company will also showcase the ClearPoint Pre-Clinical Orchestra™ Frame. This head fixation device and “floating” frame provides study directors with versatile options for pinning and positioning, enabling multiple/bilateral simultaneous infusions, access to hard-to-reach entry points and faster adjustment of frame positioning and re-positioning for multi-trajectory procedures.
Conference attendees are invited to pre-book meetings with the ClearPoint Neuro team directly here.
“At last year’s ASGCT annual meeting we were absolutely overwhelmed by the interest from the pharmaceutical community in ClearPoint’s solutions for CNS gene and cell therapy,” stated Jeremy Stigall, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Biologics and Drug Delivery at ClearPoint Neuro. “We look forward to sharing original research, as well as showcasing novel innovations like Maestro and Orchestra, tools we believe will help streamline drug delivery procedures and reduce variability that may lead to sub-optimal delivery of therapeutics to targets in the brain.”
