CARLSBAD, Calif., March 15, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Alphatec Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATEC), a provider of innovative solutions dedicated to revolutionizing the approach to spine surgery, announced today the launch of the InVictus\u00ae<\/sup> Occipital-Cervical-Thoracic (OCT) Spinal Fixation System, which extends the sophistication of the InVictus Posterior Fixation Platform to the entire spine. \u00a0The InVictus System is engineered to provide adaptable, predictable surgical treatment of a range of pathologies through open, MIS, or hybrid approaches.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe speed by which we have created and fully launched a comprehensive occiput-to-ilium fixation system with InVictus is unprecedented,\u201d said Pat Miles, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. \u201cIn less than two years, ATEC has orchestrated, from design to commercialization, the largest system our teams have ever released. This speaks to the prowess of the Organic Innovation Machine. With the release of InVictus OCT, we are obviating the last of the legacy Alphatec products and can now offer a clinically distinct platform capable of seamlessly treating the entire spine.\u201d<\/p>\n

The first new product to launch within ATEC\u2019s posterior cervical portfolio, InVictus OCT minimizes potential tulip splay and cross-threading, utilizing helical flange technology. The system uniquely gives surgeons the option of utilizing single- or dual-rod tulips to create multi-rod constructs that cross the occipito-cervical junction with increased biomechanical stability. To address the challenges commonly associated with crossing the cervico-thoracic junction, the system features multiple favored-angle screws, a variety of rod-to-rod connectors and seamlessly integrating transition rods. To enhance predictability and optionality, the system is fully compatible with the SafeOpTM<\/sup> Neural InformatiX System, Arsenal\u00ae<\/sup> Spinal Fixation System, and the InVictus Spinal Fixation System.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe commercial release of InVictus OCT cements ATEC as the emerging leader in spine,\u201d affirmed\u00a0Dr. Timothy Kuklo, principal spine surgeon and co-director at the Denver International Spine Center at Presbyterian \/ St. Luke’s Medical Center.\u00a0“InVictus OCT extends the InVictus Posterior Fixation System, creating a single system that can address the entire spine from occiput to ilium with the familiar and consistent instrument design, color coding, and nomenclature that surgeons have become accustomed to through the InVictus Thoracolumbar systems. Expertly designed for ease of use, InVictus OCT offers a thread design that simplifies screw insertion, visual and tactile feedback, proximal thoracic transition options and a 4-rod occipital module.\u00a0\u00a0ATEC has clearly developed a best-in-class occipital-cervical solution.\u201d<\/p>\n
