- First Sale to Major Global Distributor Represents Key Revenue Milestone and Paves the Way for Broader Commercialization -
AUSTIN, TX / ACCESSWIRE / November 28, 2023 / Monogram Orthopaedics Inc. (NASDAQ:MGRM) ("Monogram" or the "Company"), a medical technology company focused on reconstructive joint procedures and surgical robotics, has delivered its first surgical robot to one of the world's largest global robotics distributors.
"Delivering our first robot and realizing our first commercial revenues validates our technology and represents a pivotal milestone for our strategic roadmap," said Ben Sexson, Chief Executive Officer of Monogram Orthopaedics. "Our system is performing at an extremely high level. We now look forward to seeing how our robot competes and scales in the real world. We hope to see the mBôs robot contribute to advancing the standard of care for orthopedic patients worldwide."
Monogram aims to improve the standard of care in orthopedic joint replacement surgery with advanced, next-generation active surgical robotics. Approximately 88% of knee replacement surgeries (the Company's first addressable market) are still manual. The mBôs robot aims to combine safety, ease of use, streamlined cost, novel implant design, broad clinical functionality, and speed to help drive the next wave of robotic adoption in orthopedics.
About Monogram Orthopaedics
Monogram Orthopaedics (NASDAQ: MGRM) is working to develop a product solution architecture with the long-term goal of enabling patient-optimized orthopedic implants at scale by linking 3D printing and robotics with advanced pre-operative imaging. The Company has a robot prototype that can autonomously execute optimized paths for high-precision insertion of implants in synthetic bone specimens. Monogram intends to produce and market robotic surgical equipment and related software, orthopedic implants, tissue ablation tools, navigation consumables, and other miscellaneous instrumentation necessary for reconstructive joint replacement procedures. The Company has not yet made 510(k) premarket notification submissions or obtained 510(k) clearances for its robotic products. FDA approval is required to market these products, and the Company has not obtained FDA approval for any of its robotic products, and it cannot estimate the timing or assure the ability, to obtain such clearances.
Monogram Orthopaedics is working to advance the way orthopedic surgery is done. Our system is being developed to combine personalized knee implants with precision robotic surgical assistants to hopefully give patients a better-fitting knee replacement with minimally invasive surgery. One hundred thousand knee replacements failing each year in a $19.4B market represents an enormous opportunity for us.
