SINTX Technologies erhält FDA-Zulassung für SINAPTIC® Fuß- und Sprunggelenk-Implantatsystem

Das von der FDA zugelassene und in den USA hergestellte Implantatsystem positioniert SINTX für den Eintritt in den milliardenschweren US–Markt

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Oct. 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SINTX Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: SINT) („SINTX“ oder das „Unternehmen“), ein führender Anbieter von Hochleistungskeramik mit Spezialisierung auf biomedizinische Anwendungen von Siliziumnitrid (Si₃N₄), gab heute bekannt, dass die US–amerikanische Food and Drug Administration (FDA) die 510(k)–Zulassung für das SINAPTIC® Foot & Ankle Osteotomy Wedge System erteilt hat, wodurch SINTX der kommerzielle Eintritt in die rekonstruktive Fuß– und Sprunggelenkchirurgie in den Vereinigten Staaten ermöglicht wird. SINTX plant die Markteinführung in den USA für das erste Quartal 2026 und will dabei seine Produktionsstätten in den USA nutzen, um das Umsatzwachstum und die betriebliche Effizienz zu steigern.

Das SINAPTIC–Implantatsystem kombiniert das von SINTX entwickelte Siliziumnitrid–Biomaterial mit von Chirurginnen und Chirurgen mitgestalteten Implantatdesigns und einem geplanten sterilen Einweg–Instrumentenset, das die Effizienz, Präzision und Reproduzierbarkeit von Operationen verbessern soll. Durch die Kombination von differenzierter Materialwissenschaft mit praktischer chirurgischer Innovation veranschaulicht das SINAPTIC–Implantatsystem die Strategie von SINTX, seine einzigartige Biomaterialplattform für skalierbare, hochwertige medizinische Lösungen zu nutzen, die den ungedeckten klinischen Bedarf decken und langfristiges Wachstum fördern.

„Die Orthopädie entwickelt sich über traditionelle Materialien hinaus“, so Lisa Marie Del Re, Chief Commercial Officer. „Angesichts der wachsenden Nachfrage nach nichtmetallischen Lösungen bietet das SINAPTIC–System die bewährte Leistung von Siliziumnitrid für die Rekonstruktion von Fuß und Sprunggelenk und erhöht damit die Erwartungen an chirurgische Ergebnisse.“

Gemäß der FDA–Zulassung umfassen einige der Materialansprüche von SINTX in Bezug auf Siliziumnitrid für das Gerät:

  • Pro–osteogen: Einzigartige oberflächenchemische Mechanismen haben im Vergleich zu herkömmlichen Biomaterialien eine überlegene Proteinabsorption und Osteointegration bewiesen.
  • Bakteriostatisch: In Labor– und Tierversuchen hat sich gezeigt, dass die Oberflächeneigenschaften das Wachstum verschiedener Bakterienarten aktiv abwehren und/oder hemmen.
  • Hydrophil: Zieht Flüssigkeiten an, wodurch die Ansiedlung von Bakterien weiter verhindert und die Knochenbildungsmechanismen verbessert werden.
  • Verbesserte Sichtbarkeit bei der Bildgebung: Im Gegensatz zu Metallimplantaten ermöglicht Siliziumnitrid eine klare Darstellung des umgebenden Gewebes in Röntgenaufnahmen und CT–Scans.

„Die FDA–Zulassung unseres SINAPTIC–Portfolios ist ein entscheidender kommerzieller Meilenstein für das Unternehmen“, erklärt Eric Olson, Vorsitzender, Präsident und CEO. „Durch den Eintritt in den hochwertigen, verfahrensorientierten Markt mit einem differenzierten Biomaterial und von Chirurginnen und Chirurgen validierten Ausführungen erwarten wir, im Rahmen der Umsetzung unserer kommerziellen Strategie bedeutende klinische Auswirkungen zu erzielen und den Shareholder–Value zu steigern.“

Branchenschätzungen gehen davon aus, dass der weltweite Markt für Fuß– und Sprunggelenkimplantate im Jahr 2024 ein Volumen von etwa 4,75 bis 5,4 Mrd. US–Dollar erreichen wird. Obwohl Osteotomiekeile nur einen Teil dieser Kategorie ausmachen, ist SINTX davon überzeugt, dass das Wachstum der Eingriffe, die Verlagerung hin zu ambulanten Operationszentren und die workflowoptimierenden Einweginstrumente gemeinsam eine attraktive Umsatzchance bieten.

La FDA autorise le système d’implant de pied et de cheville SINAPTIC® de SINTX Technologies

Fabriqué aux États–Unis et désormais approuvé par la FDA, ce système d’implant conçu par SINTX s’ouvre les portes d’un marché américain valorisé à plusieurs milliards de dollars

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, 20 oct. 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SINTX Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ : SINT), ci–après « SINTX » ou la « Société », un leader du domaine des céramiques avancées spécialisé dans les applications biomédicales à base de nitrure de silicium (Si₃N₄), annonce ce jour que l’institution américaine chargée de la surveillance des denrées alimentaires et des médicaments, la Food and Drug Administration (ou FDA) a délivré un avis préalable à la mise en marché de type 510(k) visant son système de cale d’ostéotomie pour le pied et la cheville SINAPTIC® Foot & Ankle Osteotomy Wedge System. Cette avancée fait entrer SINTX sur le marché de la chirurgie reconstructrice du pied et de la cheville aux États–Unis. SINTX prévoit sa mise en marché aux États–Unis au premier trimestre 2026, et s’appuiera sur son unité de production américaine afin d’optimiser l’efficacité opérationnelle et le chiffre d’affaires.

Le système d’implant SINAPTIC allie le biomatériau de nitrure de silicium breveté de SINTX à des modèles d’implant conçus en partenariat avec des chirurgiens et un kit d’instruments stériles à usage unique pensé pour garantir une efficacité, une précision et une reproductibilité optimales en salle d’opération. En conjuguant ingénierie de matériau différenciée et innovation chirurgicale pragmatique, le système SINAPTIC illustre parfaitement la stratégie de SINTX, à savoir valoriser sa plateforme unique de biomatériaux dans l’objectif de développer des solutions médicales de haute valeur répondant à des besoins cliniques non satisfaits, tout en dégageant une croissance durable.

« L’orthopédie ne se limite plus aux matériaux traditionnels » observe Lisa Marie Del Re, directrice commerciale. « Au regard de la demande croissante en solutions non métalliques, le système SINAPTIC met les performances cliniquement validées du nitrure de silicium au service de la reconstruction du pied et de la cheville et relève les attentes en matière de résultats chirurgicaux. »

Dans le cadre de l’autorisation délivrée par la FDA, les principales propriétés attribuées au nitrure de silicium de SINTX et pertinentes à ce dispositif ressortent de la manière suivante :

  • Pro–ostéogénique : des mécanismes uniques de chimie de surface ont révélé une absorption des protéines et une ostéointégration supérieures par rapport aux biomatériaux traditionnels.
  • Bactériostatique : les propriétés de surface ont démontré sa capacité à ralentir voire inhiber la croissance de divers types de bactéries dans des études in vitro et animales.
  • Hydrophile : le matériau attire les fluides, ce qui limite la prolifération bactérienne et joue en faveur des mécanismes de formation osseuse.
  • Meilleure visibilité en imagerie : à l’inverse des implants métalliques, le nitrure de silicium donne une visualisation nette des tissus environnants en radiographie et en tomodensitométrie.

« L’autorisation de la FDA de notre solution SINAPTIC marque pour nous une avancée majeure vers la commercialisation » commente Eric Olson, président, directeur général et PDG. « En faisant notre entrée sur un marché à forte valeur et porté par des procédures, avec un biomatériau différencié et des modèles approuvés par des chirurgiens, nous prévoyons un fort impact clinique, de même qu’un net dégagement de valeur pour les actionnaires tout en répondant à notre stratégie commerciale. »

En 2024, les estimations sectorielles chiffrent le marché mondial des dispositifs pied et cheville entre 4,75 et 5,4 milliards de dollars. Si les cales d’ostéotomie n’en représentent qu’une part, SINTX considère que l’avancée des procédures, la tendance en faveur des centres de chirurgie ambulatoire et le matériel opératoire à usage unique se traduisent conjointement en une opportunité commerciale convaincante.

SINTX Technologies Receives FDA Clearance for SINAPTIC® Foot & Ankle Implant System

FDA cleared and U.S. manufactured implant system positions SINTX to enter billion–dollar U.S. market

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Oct. 20, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SINTX Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: SINT) (“SINTX” or the “Company”), a leader in advanced ceramics specializing in biomedical applications of silicon nitride (Si₃N₄), today announced U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k) clearance for the SINAPTIC® Foot & Ankle Osteotomy Wedge System, enabling SINTX’s commercial entry into reconstructive foot and ankle surgery in the United States. SINTX plans a U.S. commercial launch in Q1 2026, leveraging its U.S.–based manufacturing to drive revenue acceleration and operating efficiency.

The SINAPTIC implant system combines SINTX’s proprietary silicon nitride biomaterial with surgeon–informed implant designs and a planned sterile, single–use instrument kit engineered to enhance surgical efficiency, precision and reproducibility. By combining differentiated material science with practical surgical innovation, the SINAPTIC implant system exemplifies SINTX’s strategy to leverage its unique biomaterials platform into scalable, high–value medical solutions that address unmet clinical needs and drive long–term growth.

“Orthopedics is evolving beyond traditional materials,” said Lisa Marie Del Re, Chief Commercial Officer. “With growing demand for non–metal solutions, the SINAPTIC system delivers the proven performance of silicon nitride to foot and ankle reconstruction—elevating expectations for surgical outcomes.”

As cleared under the FDA submission, some of the material claims of SINTX’s silicon nitride relevant to the device include:

  • Pro–osteogenic: Unique surface chemistry mechanisms have demonstrated superior protein absorption and osteointegration when compared to traditional biomaterials.
  • Bacteriostatic: Surface properties have been shown to actively repel and/or inhibit the growth of various types of bacteria in a laboratory and animal studies.
  • Hydrophilic: Attracts fluids, further deterring bacteria colonization and enhancing bone–building mechanisms.
  • Enhanced visibility on imaging: Unlike metal implants, silicon nitride allows for clear visualization of the surrounding tissues in X–rays and CT scans.

“FDA clearance of our SINAPTIC portfolio is a defining commercial milestone for the Company,” said Eric Olson, Chairman, President & CEO. “By entering the high–value, procedure–driven market with a differentiated biomaterial and surgeon–validated designs, we expect to generate meaningful clinical impact and build shareholder value as we execute our commercial strategy.”

Industry estimates place the global foot & ankle device market at approximately $4.75–$5.4 billion in 2024. While osteotomy wedges represent a subset of this category, SINTX believes procedure growth, ASC migration, and workflow–enhancing single–use instrumentation together create a compelling revenue opportunity.

UPDATE: SINTX stärkt sein Portfolio zur Infektionsprävention mit einem neu zugelassenen US-Patent, das einen adressierbaren Markt für Antipathogene im Wert von 30 Milliarden US-Dollar abdeckt

Neues US–Patent stärkt Wettbewerbsvorteil und ermöglicht umfassendere Lizenzierungs– und Produktmöglichkeiten in wichtigen Märkten

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, Oct. 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SINTX Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: SINT) („SINTX” oder das „Unternehmen”), ein innovativer Hersteller von Hochleistungskeramik, der sich auf biomedizinische Anwendungen von Siliziumnitrid (Si₃N₄) spezialisiert hat, hat heute bekannt gegeben, dass das US–Patent– und Markenamt (USPTO) eine Zulassungsmitteilung für eine Patentanmeldung herausgegeben hat, die Verfahrensansprüche enthält, welche die antipathogene Gewebetechnologie des Unternehmens abdecken.

Diese Entwicklung baut auf der zuvor angekündigten Patenterteilung für das Patent von SINTX für seine Zusammensetzung aus antipathogenen Fasermaterialien auf und erweitert das geistige Eigentum (IP) des Unternehmens, um sowohl das Material selbst als auch die Verfahren zu schützen, mit denen es auf den Markt gebracht wird. Diese doppelte Abdeckung stärkt den Wettbewerbsvorteil des Unternehmens, verbessert die Möglichkeiten für Lizenzen und Partnerschaften und erweitert die potenziellen Anwendungsbereiche auf medizinische Textilien, Filtermedien und andere infektionsanfällige Oberflächen.

Diese beiden Patentfamilien bilden eine umfassende IP–Wettbewerbsbarriere rund um die Technologie von SINTX zur Inaktivierung von Krankheitserregern auf Oberflächen und decken Anwendungen in den Bereichen Wundauflagen, OP–Abdecktücher und –Kittel, Filtermedien, persönliche Schutzausrüstung (PSA) und häufig berührte klinische Oberflächen ab.

„Wir freuen uns, die Zulassung unseres Verfahrenspatents für antipathogene Fasermaterialien bekannt zu geben. Dies ist ein wichtiger Meilenstein, der den Schutz unserer proprietären Siliziumnitrid–Technologieplattform stärkt und erweitert“, so Eric K. Olson, Chairman und CEO von SINTX Technologies. „Dieses neu erteilte Patent ergänzt das kürzlich erteilte US–Patent Nr. 12.433.356 vom 7. Oktober 2025, das die Zusammensetzung von Siliziumnitrid für antipathogene Fasermaterialien abdeckt. Zusammen stärken diese Patente die Führungsposition von SINTX im Bereich der Infektionsresistenz und erweitern den Schutz des geistigen Eigentums des Unternehmens sowohl auf die Zusammensetzung seiner Gewebe als auch auf die Verfahren zu deren Herstellung und Anwendung. Wir glauben, dass diese zweischichtige IP–Grundlage das Lizenzierungs– und Vermarktungspotenzial unserer Plattform erheblich verbessert.

Lisa Marie Del Re, Chief Commercial Officer, fügt hinzu: „Mit Verfahrensansprüchen können wir nun die Herstellungs– und Anwendungswege verteidigen und lizenzieren, die die antipathogene Wirkung von Siliziumnitrid in Textilien und Oberflächen freisetzen. Dies ist von entscheidender Bedeutung, wenn wir mit potenziellen Partnern aus den Bereichen Wundversorgung, Filtration und medizinische Textilien zusammenarbeiten.

Wissenschaftliche Grundlage und externe Validierung
„Peer–Review–Studien haben wiederholt eine schnelle Inaktivierung von Coronaviren und eine breite antimikrobielle Wirkung von Siliziumnitrid gezeigt, darunter aktuelle Daten, die eine Reduzierung der infektiösen SARS–CoV–2–Viren um bis zu 99,97 % innerhalb weniger Minuten unter Laborbedingungen belegen“, so Dr. Ryan Bock, Chief Technology Officer. „Vliesstoffe, die optimiertes Si₃N₄–Pulver enthalten, haben ebenfalls zu einer signifikanten Reduzierung der Viren geführt, was erneut zeigt, dass unsere Siliziumnitrid–Plattform geeignet ist, um die antipathogenen Eigenschaften in einer Vielzahl von Produkten freizusetzen.“

Hinweis: Die Ergebnisse der Laboruntersuchungen zu antiviralen/antimikrobiellen Eigenschaften stützen die Materialplattform und unterscheiden sich von den zugelassenen Indikationen für Medizinprodukte.

Marktkontext
Die Infektionsprävention bleibt ein großes, segmentübergreifendes Geschäftsfeld. SINTX hat den zugänglichen Markt für seine Plattform zuvor auf etwa 30 Milliarden US–Dollar in den Bereichen medizinische Textilien, Wundversorgung, Filtration/PSA und Gesundheitsinfrastruktur geschätzt – eine Chance, die nun durch die Zusammensetzung und die Abdeckung der Methoden untermauert wird. 

Auf der Ebene der Gesundheitsversorgung hat etwa jeder 31. Krankenhauspatient in den USA an einem beliebigen Tag mindestens eine nosokomiale Infektion (HAI), was eine erhebliche wirtschaftliche Belastung darstellt und die Nachfrage nach passiven Oberflächen–Lösungen verstärkt, die kontinuierlich am Kontaktpunkt wirken. (Daten der CDC; die Kosten variieren stark je nach Art der HAI.)

SINTX plant, Lizenzierungs– und Co–Entwicklungspartnerschaften mit Partnern aus den Bereichen Textil, Wundversorgung und Filtration/PSA einzugehen. Das doppelte Patent ermöglicht es SINTX, sowohl Materialausführungen als auch Verfahrensmethoden zu lizenzieren, was flexible Vertragsstrukturen einschließlich Vorauszahlungen, Meilensteinen und Lizenzgebühren an mehreren Punkten der Lieferkette ermöglicht.
