Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.

HIV-HCV (ION-4)
Liver-related complications remain a leading cause of death
among HIV/HCV-coinfected patients1
Safe and effective oral treatments compatible with multiple
antiretrovirals are needed for the eradication of HCV in
HIV/HCV-coinfected patients
Aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of
LDV/SOF for the treatment of HCV in patients coinfected with
HIV-1, currently on antiretroviral therapy

ION-4 – LDV/SOF in HIV/HCV
SVR12 by ARV Regimen and Race
15. PK and Other Exploratory Analyses

16. Results: HCV Sequence Analysis
HIV-HCV (ION-4)
Deep sequencing of NS5A at baseline identified 59 (18%) patients with
NS5A variants (RAVs)
– 55 (93%) of patients with NS5A RAVs achieved SVR12
Post-treatment NS5A RAVs were observed in 10 of the 12 patients with
virologic failure
No NS5B S282T was observed in any patient at baseline or virologic
failure

20. Conclusions
HIV-HCV (ION-4)
In this Phase 3 study of 335 HIV/HCV-coinfected patients, 96%
achieved SVR12 after 12 weeks of a once-daily, single-tablet
regimen of LDV/SOF
– Prior HCV treatment status or the presence or absence of cirrhosis
did not impact outcome
– In contrast to larger studies among monoinfected patients, a lower
response rate was observed among coinfected black patients
treated with LDV/SOF (SVR12 90%)
LDV/SOF was well tolerated, with no treatment discontinuations
due to adverse events and no adverse impact on HIV disease or
its treatment

Editor's Notes
Transition:
Now looking at the primary endpoint of SVR12 for both groups.
Main Message:
Overall SVR 12 was 98% (49/50)
In HCV/HIV co-infected patients, a 12-week regimen of LDV/SOF elicited rapid HCV suppression, was well tolerated, safe and efficacious mirroring rates observed in HCV mono-infected patients (99% SVR12 in ION-1 and 96% SVR12 in ION-3)
Only one subject did not obtain an SVR12, relapsed post-treatment Week 2
One subject had detectable HCV at SVR36
No clinically significant CD4 T-cell count, HIV RNA changes, or renal toxicity were observed
The use of LDV/SOF was well tolerated in this HIV co-infected cohort with no deaths or discontinuations due to AEs
Background:
Used Abbott RNA assay for HCV RNA monitoring with a LLOQ 12 IU/mL
Patients will be followed for a total of 48 weeks after post-treatment week 12
One patient did not achieve an SVR (in the ART group)- relapsed post-treatment Week 2 of follow-up
63-year old African American female with HAI 1 fibrosis, GT1b, IL28B TT, baseline HIV VL<40, CD4 count 395 on Complera; baseline HCV VL 5,338,580 IU/mL and Week 20 VL 175,750 IU/mL
One patient had a late relapse at post-treatment Week 36
45-year old White male, HAI 1 fibrosis, GT1a, IL28B CC, baseline HIV VL<40, CD4 605 and TVD+RAL; baseline HCV VL 2,363,226 IU/mL and Week 48 VL 1,544,468. Cause still be investigated by study staff, patient is an MSM although denied any high risk behavior after stopping HCV therapy.
Looking at HIV parameters:
Overall, no changes in CD4 counts/CD4 % for either group
No clinically significant changes in HIV RNA during HCV treatment in the ARV untreated arm
One subject in the ART treated arm had HIV viral breakthrough on therapy, missed 4 days of ART, was restarted and suppressed on same regimen
No differences between the groups in terms of on-treatment HCV RNA decline
Overall safety:
No SAEs, deaths or discontinuations due to AEs
Minimal Grade 3/4 events: one Grade 4 (elevated CPK) and eight Grade 3 events reported (elevated AST, lipase increased, amylase increased, right upper quadrant pain, pneumonia and neutrophil count decreased)- CPK and AST occurred in same patient who started vigorous exercise program during treatment
Most common AEs reported were pain, fatigue, nasal congestion, and nasopharyngitis
Reported renal parameters in ART group (n=37) were serum creatinine, CrCl, GFR, beta-2 microglobulin levels and proteinuria. Overall, no changes in serum creatinine, mild decrease in CrCl and GFR of 3-4 mL/min, negligible changes in beta-2 microglobulin levels and 3 patients had proteinuria over the 12 weeks of therapy. Concluded that there was no evidence of renal toxicity.
43% (n=16) of subjects in the ART group were receiving Atripla or an Atripla-like regimen
Pooled mono analysis 16% BL RAVS
96% of those without BL RAVS achieved SVR (just a difference of numbers)
