(Nasdaq: VANI) (\u201cVivani\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d), an innovative, biopharmaceutical company developing novel, ultra long-acting drug implants, today announced the signing of a new agreement with Novo Nordisk to enable Novo Nordisk to evaluate NPM-139, the Company\u2019s semaglutide drug implant. NPM-139, which utilizes Vivani\u2019s NanoPortal\u2122 platform technology, is under development for chronic weight management. There are no exclusivity provisions for NPM-139, or Vivani\u2019s proprietary NanoPortal technology associated with this agreement.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">\n        \n      <\/p>\n<p>Adam Mendelsohn, Ph.D., Vivani President and CEO, stated: \u201cThe new agreement announced today supporting our semaglutide implant program in chronic weight management demonstrates Novo Nordisk&#8217;s interest in evaluating our technology and its lead semaglutide application. This agreement reinforces our confidence regarding the market opportunity for our GLP-1 implants under development. We believe that our NanoPortal implants under development, including NPM-139, could address a growing segment of patients who would prefer a convenient once- or twice-yearly treatment option and the peace of mind that treatment could be stopped at any time if that became necessary.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Separately, Vivani expects to initiate a Phase 1, randomized, first-in-human study evaluating the NPM-139 semaglutide implant, with Wegovy\u00ae injections as an active comparator, in mid-2026. The study\u2019s objectives are to characterize the safety, pharmacokinetics, and tolerability of NPM-139 to support the initiation of a Phase 2 dose-ranging study pending successful results of the Phase 1 study.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong> About Vivani Medical, Inc.<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p>Leveraging its proprietary NanoPortal\u2122 platform, Vivani develops biopharmaceutical implants designed to deliver drug molecules steadily over extended periods of time with the goal of guaranteeing adherence and improving patient tolerance to their medication. Vivani is developing a portfolio of GLP-1 based implants for metabolic diseases including obesity and type 2 diabetes. These NanoPortal implants are designed to provide patients with the opportunity to realize the full potential benefit of their medication by avoiding the numerous challenges associated with the daily or weekly administration of orals and injectables, including tolerability issues and loss of efficacy. Medication non-adherence occurs when patients do not take their medication as prescribed. This affects an alarming number of patients, approximately 50%, including those taking daily pills.
