Glucotrack selects cirtec medical as
manufacturer for its implantable continuous blood glucose
monitor
Rutherford, NJ & Brooklyn Park, MN, Feb. 27, 2024 --
InvestorsHub NewsWire -- Glucotrack, Inc. (Nasdaq:
GCTK), a medical device company focused on the
design, development, and commercialization of novel technologies
for people with diabetes, today announced the selection of Cirtec
Medical Corp, the leading medical device solutions provider of
implantable therapies, as manufacturer for the implantable
Continuous Blood Glucose Monitor (CBGM). The two companies have
signed a development agreement for clinical and commercial
manufacturing.
Glucotrack's CBGM is a long-term, implantable system that
continually measures blood glucose levels with a sensor longevity
of 2+ years, no on-body wearable component and with a once-only
calibration event. The company continues to reach significant
milestones, such as the recently announced completion of its first
preclinical study in animals.
"Cirtec is a leader in the design and manufacturing of
implantable medical devices in the fields of neuromodulation,
cardiology and drug delivery. They are a natural fit to be the
manufacturer of our CBGM, which leverages their deep experience in
implantable technologies and brings it to the diabetes market,"
stated Paul Goode, PhD, CEO of Glucotrack. "Their expertise has
already contributed extensively to our product design process, and
we expect this relationship to accelerate the pace at which this
technology becomes available for human clinical trials and then
scalable for commercialization."
Cirtec Medical is a vertically integrated, full-service
outsource partner that provides state-of-the-art product design,
development, and manufacturing services to a variety of medical
device OEMs. Cirtec boasts over three decades of expertise in every
phase of the product development lifecycle for complex medical
devices. As part of the development agreement, the companies will
collaborate to complete development and manufacturing activities to
support the first-in-human clinical studies of the implantable
CBGM, which are slated for later this year.
"Cirtec is proud to work with Glucotrack,
further cementing our expanding role into implantable devices in
the diabetes market," stated
Brian Highley, Cirtec CEO. "Our agreement
capitalizes on Cirtec's extensive expertise in implantable medical
device design, development, and manufacturing and Glucotrack's
innovation in CBGM. Together, we are committed to advancing
technology solutions for people living with diabetes
worldwide."
