Pantheon Spinal LLC announced on May 11, 2020 its acquisition of Incite Innovation, LLC., a Massachusetts-based spine device manufacturer. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Pantheon Spinal was formed by Dr. Scott Spann to commercialize the Anterior To Lateral Approach System (A.T.L.A.S.), which uses the Epiphany and Pontus implants. The current acquisition will add modular anchored cervical interbody devices to the Pantheon portfolio. The company will continue to develop its lateral and anterior lumbar systems under Eric Hansen’s leadership as well.
Pantheon plans to continue focusing on modular technology, such as multiple use trays and implant categories to become more sustainable and limit excess in the operating room. Pantheon plans to produce its implants through AR Fabricating, LLC. a “top go-to manufacturer” for the company. AR Fabricating is operated by several individuals previously associated with Summit Spine, which merged with Pantheon in April 2020.
Incite Innovation also produces the Pegasus anchored cervical interbody, which has been exclusively distributed by Alphatec Spine since 2014. The agreement with Alphatec will remain in place after the acquisition is finalized.
Pantheon’s Chief Executive Officer Eric Hansen says, “We are excited to complete the line with cutting edge implant and instrument technology for anchored lateral and anterior lumbar approaches. We will be adding a modular concept to the entire line, which will include a screw plate option.” An initial offering will be named Trident (pictured), a titanium or PEEK implant that attaches to an anchor. The implant is FDA 510(k) cleared and was previously named the Incite Anchored Cervical Interbody and has already been used in over 1,000 cases. It will soon be available in an anatomic shape in PEEK and titanium. The current iteration requires supplemental fixation. Pantheon expects the acquisition to further its goal to be a company “built by surgeons for surgeons.”
I am an independent healthcare consultant tied up with the company of The Ingenium Group,
I made a contract with Neuro Structures for assisting their new market entry into Japan a few years ago
Recently I came to know the fact that Neuro Structures was acquired by Incite Innovations and your company is
the parent company of Incite Innovations.
I wonder how your company will proceed your international business from now on.
Especially their ” Phusion Metal interbody fusion cage for Thoracolumber is very attractive to launch at our market.
but I realized this product was not approved yet by FDA.
I would like to know your future business policy how you will plan to handle an international business.
