SubsidieMeestersThe first true minimally-invasive Spinal Fusion System
ZygoFix's zLOCK implant aims to revolutionize spinal fusion by offering a minimally invasive, outpatient alternative to traditional screw-and-rod methods, with plans for clinical validation and CE-marking.
Projectdetails
Introduction
Over 1M spinal fusion procedures are performed annually worldwide. Current spinal fusion procedures are highly invasive: they are based on building “screw-bridges,” connected by metal rods stabilizing motion between vertebrae.
Market Need
There are no effective treatments in the market that substitute the current invasive implants.
zLOCK Implant
zLOCK is a small implant that resolves spinal fusion by eliminating the need for screws and rods. zLOCK minimizes the invasiveness of procedures through a percutaneous approach, where only a small skin incision is required for implant placement, making it suitable for outpatient procedures.
Impact on Clinical Practice
zLOCK can revolutionize spinal fusion standard clinical practice and the market. The implant value propositions have been confirmed in a first-in-human trial.
EIC Accelerator Project
With the EIC Accelerator project, ZygoFix will complete the necessary upgrades and clinical validation activities, achieve CE-mark, and accelerate the time-to-market of zLOCK.
