Regulatory News:

IMPLANET (Euronext Growth: ALIMP, FR0013470168, eligible for PEA-PME plans), a medical technology company specializing in implants for orthopedic surgery and the distribution of technological medical equipment, announces the launch of its surgeon training program with a view to marketing its JAZZ® range in China.

Ludovic Lastennet, IMPLANET’s Chief Executive Officer, stated: “We are proud to welcome Professor Huanxiong Chen, Head of the Hainan Medical University’s Department of Spine Surgery, for two months. He is the first Chinese surgeon to receive training related to the JAZZ® platform. This program includes immersion training in French hospitals that use JAZZ® and are recognized for their spine surgery expertise. This training is dispensed by the JAZZ Academy, our structure devoted to training. This is a major new step to best prepare the upcoming marketing of our JAZZ® range in China by our partner Sanyou Medical. We are eagerly awaiting feedback from the Chinese health authorities regarding the registration of our products. Professor Chen should be able to begin the first surgical interventions during the first quarter of 2024”.

Professor Huanxiong Chen, Department of Spine Surgery, Hainan Medical University, added: “I am honored to be the first Chinese surgeon trained by IMPLANET in the JAZZ® range. I’m delighted to have this opportunity to talk with French surgeons about their experience with JAZZ® and to discover the various surgical indications. I hope to be able to use the JAZZ® range once I return to China in my day-to-day work in pediatric and adult surgery”. The JAZZ® Academy, helps surgeons expand their knowledge of the JAZZ® range and sub-laminar techniques. During training, different surgical strategies are addressed depending on indications. Each session is supervised by a surgeon who is an expert in this field and by an experienced technical team. During his stay in France, which began in late November 2023, Professor Chen will thus have an opportunity to participate in several spine surgery operations performed in prominent French university hospitals, including those in Paris (APH) and Lyon (HCL).

This first training of a Chinese surgeon in JAZZ® technologies is one of the final stages before the marketing of IMPLANET’s JAZZ® range is initiated in China, the world’s largest spine surgery market by volume. As a reminder, the distribution of the JAZZ® range by Sanyou Medical on the Chinese market is dependent on its approval by the Chinese health authorities, whose initial feedback is expected in 2024.
