Sparton to Provide Manufacturing Services to AIT Therapeutics
August 9, 2018 | Globe NewswireEstimated reading time: 2 minutes
AIT Therapeutics, Inc. (AITB), a clinical-stage medical device and biopharmaceutical company focused on developing inhaled Nitric Oxide (NO) for the treatment of patients with respiratory conditions including serious lung infections and pulmonary hypertension, has begun commercial development for its ventilator compatible NO generator and delivery system with Sparton Corporation. AIT and Sparton expect to complete the process in approximately 6 months, and AIT will make a 510(k) submission to the FDA shortly thereafter.
“AIT and Sparton have been working together on the NO generator and delivery system for more than a year with excellent results to date,” said Steven Lisi, chairman and chief executive officer of AIT Therapeutics. “We are looking forward to a 510(k) submission to the FDA early next year for the ventilator compatible system, as well as initiating studies in both bronchiolitis and NTM with the commercial mask compatible system in 2019. Over the past 18 months the AIT team has successfully executed on three separate programs, and we are looking forward to our efforts resulting in improving the lives of patients over the next several years.”
“Sparton is proud to play a key role in bringing a product that will positively impact the health of many people to the market,” said Mike Gaul, group vice president, Manufacturing and Design Services. "We look forward to our continued partnership with AIT through the regulatory and manufacturing processes.”
About Nitric Oxide (NO)
Nitric Oxide (NO) is a powerful molecule proven to play a critical role in a broad array of biological functions. In the airways, NO is believed to play a key role in the innate immune system at concentrations of approximately 200 ppm. In vitro studies suggest that NO possesses anti-microbial activity not only against common bacteria, both gram-positive and gram-negative, but also against other diverse organisms including mycobacteria, fungi, yeast and parasites, and has the potential to eliminate multi-drug resistant strains.
