Tivic Health, Feinstein Institutes Partner To Advance Its Patent-Pending, Non-Invasive Cervical Vagus Nerve Stimulation; Begins Optimization Of ncVNS For Use In Clinical Indications
Tivic Health® Systems, Inc. (("Tivic Health", NASDAQ:TIVC), a health tech company that develops and commercializes bioelectronic medicine, announced today it has initiated the second phase of its clinical work to advance its novel non-invasive cervical vagus nerve stimulation ("ncVNS"). The company has entered into a collaboration agreement with The Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research at Northwell Health to optimize its ncVNS device therapy for use in specific clinical indications.
Tivic Health will conduct a second 20-person clinical trial in collaboration with Theodoros Zanos, Ph.D., Associate Professor in the Institute of Bioelectronic Medicine and Head of the Neural and Data Science Lab at the Feinstein Institutes. Physiological measurements will be used to identify optimal device specifications, including refining electrode positioning and key electrical waveform parameters utilized in its successful Phase 1 study.
