or the "Company"), a medical technology company that develops breakthrough treatment alternatives for Obstructive Sleep Apnea
(OSA), today announced that it has filed a lawsuit against Inspire Medical Systems, Inc. ("Inspire") alleging that the Inspire
IV and Inspire V devices infringe the following three patents held by the Company; U.S. Patent Nos. 8,700,183, 9,415,215, and 9,415,216.
The suit was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, seeking injunctive relief and damages for infringement.
"We will defend our intellectual property
portfolio and the proprietary, minimally invasive Genio system, which does not rely on traditional pacemaker hardware but is a differentiated
solution offering bi-lateral stimulation, full body MRI compatibility and an upgradable technology platform that does not require re-surgery
for battery replacements," said Olivier Taelman, Chief Executive Officer. "At Nyxoah, we remain committed to putting patients
first and offering physicians an alternative, trusting them to make the best decision for their patients suffering from OSA. We're
excited about the positive feedback we have received from both physicians and patients in the first month post-US commercial launch and
look forward to introducing the Genio system to more physicians and OSA patients so they can choose the best solution for their needs."
Nyxoah is a medical technology company focused
on the development and commercialization of innovative solutions to treat OSA. Nyxoah's lead solution is the Genio system, a patient-centered,
leadless and battery-free hypoglossal neurostimulation therapy for OSA, the world's most common sleep disordered breathing condition
that is associated with increased mortality risk and cardiovascular comorbidities. Nyxoah is driven by the vision that OSA patients should
enjoy restful nights and feel enabled to live their life to its fullest.
Following the successful completion of the BLAST
OSA study, the Genio system received its European CE Mark in 2019. Nyxoah completed two successful IPOs: on Euronext Brussels in September
2020 and NASDAQ in July 2021. Following the positive outcomes of the BETTER SLEEP study, Nyxoah received CE mark approval for the expansion
of its therapeutic indications to Complete Concentric Collapse (CCC) patients, currently contraindicated in competitors' therapy.
Additionally, the Company announced positive outcomes from the DREAM IDE pivotal study and U.S. FDA approval of a Premarket Approval application.
