21 Lumbar Spinal Stenosis: X-STOP IPD and Aperius PercLID Systems Karen Talmadge, Ph.D., Chief Science Officer 21

22 Impact of Lumbar Spinal Stenosis (LSS) Narrowing of passageways for spinal nerves Causing nerve compression Leads to back pain, leg pain and weakness, walking difficulty 8-11% of the population has LSS in the U.S. 1 Most common reason for spine surgery in older people 2 Financial impact and lost work hours reaches billions of dollars each year in this country 3 1. Murphy et al, BMC musculoskeletal Disorders, 2006, Jennis et al, Spine Murphy et al, BMC musculoskeletal Disorders, Szpalski, European Spine Journal, Knowledge Enterprises, Inc. 22

23 LSS Symptoms Caused by Nerve Compression Soft tissues and bone surrounding nerves degenerate and get bigger or more lax Example: Normal nerve passageway Narrowed nerve passageway Normal Stenotic 23

24 Classic Symptoms of LSS Standing provokes symptoms Pain/weakness in the legs Patients lean forward while walking to walk more comfortably Sitting relieves symptoms in mild, moderate disease 24

25 Symptoms Standing but Not Sitting: Area Around Nerves DECREASES while standing 25

26 Symptoms Standing but Not Sitting: Area Around Nerves DECREASES while standing INCREASES when sitting 26

27 Conventional LSS Treatment Options Non Operative Care Physical therapy Injected painkillers Other drugs Lifestyle modification Low success rate longterm Surgery (Decompression) Open or Minimally Invasive (MI) Remove bone and soft tissue to make space for nerves Greater success long-term but with nerve and other complications, even MI 27

28 X-STOP IPD Procedure Option Fills the Gap Non Operative Care Physical therapy Injected painkillers Other drugs Lifestyle modification Low success rate longterm X-STOP IPD Implant Surgery (Decompression) Open or Minimally Invasive (MI) Remove bone and soft tissue to make space for nerves Greater success long-term but with nerve and other complications, even MI 28

29 X-STOP IPD Procedure Relieves Nerve Compression Without Removing Bone or Soft Tissue X-STOP Device 29

30 X-STOP IPD Product Provides Mechanical Relief: Moves the Vertebrae Apart - Reduces Passageway Narrowing - Without Altering Spinal Alignment Standing without X-STOP Implant Standing with X-STOP Implant 30

36 X-STOP IPD Procedure Has Low Complication Rate: Operation Is Not Near the Nerves Back Back Spinal canal, where nerves reside, exit Abdomen 36

37 Low Complications IDE Study: X-STOP IPD Procedure Group* Operative-Site Related (post surgery/discharge) Incisional pain (1) Hematoma (1) Wound swelling (1) Wound dehiscence (1) Implant Related Implant dislodgement (1) Implant malpositioned (1) Spinous process fracture (1) Resulted in a secondary intervention * See X-STOP IPD Device Instructions for Use for complete listing Zucherman Spine

38 Radiographic Outcomes IDE Study No significant difference between control and X-STOP IPD procedure groups at 12 and 24 months in: Disc height Curvature of spine Angulation of spine Degree of spondylolisthesis X-STOP implant maintained distraction in 96% of all levels measured (defined as loss of 4 mm in interspinous process distance) No Difference - Sagittal Alignment!

40 Patients with Spondylolisthesis IDE Study Sub-analysis Anderson J Neurosurg Spine year follow-up of 75/191 patients in IDE study with 5-25% spondylolisthesis (Grade 1) X-STOP IPD procedure group had better QOL 40

41 Long-Term Disability Improvement IDE Study Sub-analysis Kondrashov J Spinal Disord Tech year follow-up of 18/23 IDE study patients at inventor s site Conclusions Mean 30-point (67%) improvement in function Measured by change in Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) Baseline ODI: 45 4-year ODI: 15 14/18 (77%) of patients experienced at least a 15 point drop (improvement) in ODI Nearly every patient (94% or 17/18) had improved function and only 1 patient s ODI score remained unchanged 41

42 X-STOP IPD Procedure Studies In Progress or Planned Condition of Approval Studies - United States OUTLAST: Follow-up IDE study COAST: Post-market study of 240 additional subjects X-STOP IPD procedure vs. laminectomy* Sweden Netherlands Norway UK Some randomized, some not X-STOP IPD procedure for facet pain UK, Germany *Some are company-sponsored 42

43 X-STOP IPD Procedure Summary Mechanical relief of major LSS symptoms now possible Proven to achieve superior outcomes to non-operative care Associated with a low rate of complications Negligible intervertebral angle changes - i.e., no evidence of kyphosis Procedure is reversible - does not compromise further surgical options X-STOP IPD procedure superiority over non-operative therapy consistent and sustained at two-year follow-up 43

44 Next Generation Treatment Option for LSS: Aperius PercLID System First PERCutaneous Stand-Alone Lumbar Interspinous Decompression System Ability to treat two levels of spine with single small incision CE Mark and available in Europe 44

45 Next Generation Aperius PercLID System Percutaneous access and implantation using image guidance Series of four access tools matched to four implant sizes Stabilizing wings deployed in situ via actuation mechanism Undeployed Deployed 45

46 Aperius PercLID Percutaneous Access Access Tools Preloaded Implants 46

47 Standing Spinal X-Ray Before Aperius Implant After Aperius Implant 47

48 Standing Spinal MRI Before Aperius Implant After Aperius Implant 48

49 Aperius PercLID Procedure Summary First percutaneous extension limiting device 1-cm incision Over a hundred cases to date INCA clinical study ongoing in Europe single-arm, multicenter clinical follow-up study designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Aperius device in 40 degenerative LSS patients We believe the availability of the Aperius System, combined with the X-STOP IPD Device, will play a key role in establishing and maintaining our leadership position in LSS symptom treatment 49
