This group of 10 patients will continue to be followed as a separate cohort throughout the study, and their safety and efficacy data will be reported publicly from time to time. The second stage of the study, which will begin immediately after the 30-day safety results for the first group are reported to the FDA, will enroll 220 patients, with 165 patients receiving the enVVe valve, and 55 patients randomized into a control arm who will receive standard of care treatment. The results from the patients who receive the enVVe valve will be compared to the results from the patients in the control arm of the study. The TAVVE study will enroll patients at up to 40 U.S. clinical sites and will include vascular surgeons, interventional radiologists and interventional cardiologists. One year after the 220<sup>th</sup> patient is enrolled in the second stage of the study, the Company would be eligible to file for FDA post-marketing approval.</p><p>Key features of enVVe system include:</p><ul style="list-style-type:disc;"><li><p>Minimally invasive procedure requiring no general anesthesia or overnight hospital stay;</p></li><li><p>Self-expanding frame made from a specially formulated biocompatible nickel and titanium alloy;</p></li><li><p>Frame geometry that accommodates the natural dilation and contraction of the vein;</p></li><li><p>3 enVVe valve sizes to ensure a proper fit across a broad range of vein sizes;</p></li><li><p>Unique, mono-cusp leaflet design that is laser cut from porcine pericardium tissue;</p></li><li><p>Delivery profile of only 13 Fr (4.3 mm) when crimped, giving it the smallest profile of any replacement valve currently in use for the cardiovascular system; and</p></li><li><p>Delivery via an over-the-wire, coaxial, single-stage pull system for ease of use.</p></li></ul><p>enVVeno also announced that as of March 31, 2026, the Company had approximately $25 million cash and investments on hand which is expected to fund operations into the third quarter of 2027.</p><p><strong>About CVI</strong><br/>Deep venous CVI occurs when insufficient blood is returned to the heart and lungs from the lower leg. The disease is most often caused by blood clots (deep vein thromboses or DVTs) resulting in permanently damaged valves in the deep veins of the leg. When valves inside the deep veins of the leg fail, blood flows in the wrong direction and pools in the lower leg, causing pressure within the veins of the leg to increase (venous hypertension).</p><p>Symptoms of severe CVI include leg swelling, pain, edema, and in the most severe cases, recurrent open sores known as venous ulcers. The disease can severely impact everyday functions such as sleeping, bathing, dressing and walking, and is known to result in high rates of depression and anxiety. There are currently no effective treatments for severe CVI of the deep vein system caused by valvular incompetence. Estimates indicate that there are approximately 3 million patients in the U.S. with severe deep venous CVI, costing the U.S. healthcare system in excess of $20 billion each year.</p><p><strong>About enVVeno Medical Corporation</strong><br/>enVVeno Medical (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NVNO">NVNO</a>) is an Irvine, California-based, clinical-stage medical device Company focused on the advancement of innovative bioprosthetic (tissue-based) solutions to improve the standard of care for the treatment of deep venous disease. The Company is currently developing enVVe system, which includes a first-in-class non-surgical replacement venous valve being developed for the treatment of severe deep Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI). The enVVe valve is designed to act as one-way valve, to help assist in propelling blood up the leg, and back to the heart and lungs. As a transcatheter delivered device, the enVVe procedure will be performed under light sedation and should not require an over-night hospital stay.</p><p><strong>Cautionary Note on Forward-Looking Statements</strong><br/>This press release and any statements of stockholders, directors, employees, representatives and partners of enVVeno Medical Corporation (the "Company") related thereto contain, or may contain, among other things, certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
