(Nasdaq: HUMA), a commercial-stage biotechnology platform company developing universally implantable, bioengineered human tissue at commercial scale, announced today the first sale of Symvess to a U.S. Military Treatment Facility. The facility is a state-of-the-art medical complex located on a major U.S. military base that provides health care to approximately 200,000 active-duty service personnel, retirees, and their family members. This sale follows the recent ECAT listing approval from the U.S. Defense Logistics Agency. ECAT is an internet system that provides the Department of Defense (DOD) and other federal agencies with access to manufacturers’ and distributors’ products. The ECAT approval makes Symvess available to healthcare professionals treating military service members, veterans, and other patients receiving care at approximately 35 Military Treatment Facilities and approximately 160 U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs hospitals. Symvess (acellular tissue engineered vessel-tyod) was approved in the extremity vascular trauma indication by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in December 2024. “We are excited to see the first purchase and use of Symvess by a military treatment facility,” said Dr. Laura Niklason, President and CEO of Humacyte, Inc. “We have great interest in improving the medical options available to healthcare professionals treating military personnel and their families, and look forward to advancing our discussions with additional DOD hospitals.” For uses other than the FDA approval in the extremity vascular trauma indication, the ATEV is an investigational product and has not been approved for use or sale by the FDA or any other regulatory agency.
