Important events during the quarter · In the period, SciBase submitted the premarket approval (PMA) application for Nevisense to the FDA (US Food and Drug Administration). FDA has now accepted the application (according to press-release in January 2016) and is now moving on to the evaluation phase. The PMA is the FDA’s most rigorous process for approval of new medical devices for the US market and is required for most class III devices. Class III devices are usually based on a new method that has not been approved by the FDA yet. Due to the complex and resource-intensive process only about 30 companies per year apply for a PMA. If successful, SciBase will be one of only a handful Swedish companies that have completed the PMA process. Important events after the end of the period · After the end of the period a change in the Company’s board of directors was communicated. Viktor Dvrota, as a result of his appointment as Head of Investment at Karolinska Development, has resigned from SciBase’s Board of Directors. Alternate director Andreas Pennervall will take his place.
