DALLAS (PRWEB) SEPTEMBER 10, 2020–The Taiwan Food and Drug Administration (TFDA) has granted CTL Amedica Corporation a license for three silicon nitride spine products – the Valeo II Lumbar Interbody Fusion Device, number 033665; the Valeo C+CSC Cervical Interbody Fusion Device, number 033666; and the Valeo II Cervical Interbody Fusion Device, number 033667. The official license enables CTL Amedica to market these products in Taiwan, a crucial medical device market, particularly for spinal technology.
“We began laying the groundwork for entrance into this important, thriving market upon participating in the 14th Annual Meeting of the Taiwan Neurosurgical Society in 2019, and we are pleased to see these efforts coming to fruition,” says Daniel Chon, CTL Amedica Corporation president and CEO. “The Valeo product line features our proprietary silicon nitride spine technology – the ideal biomaterial for fusion.”
CTL Amedica is the world’s exclusive provider of silicon nitride spine products. Silicon nitride demonstrates unique bacteriostatic properties, provides superior imaging across all modalities and promotes an enhanced osteogenic response.
“We are very excited to put CTL Taiwan in motion and look forward to working with our Taiwan distributor partner, Watson Biomedical Technology of New Taipei City, to make this unparalleled technology readily available throughout the country and eventually in markets throughout Asia.”
The Valeo product line is projected to commercialize late 2020 in Taiwan.

How come Sintx (where the implants come from) says they are developing new Si3n4 spine products for other potential companies. How exclusive is your Si3n4 deal with Sintx. Was it for just the existing products you purchased or is it for exclusivity for all future Si3n4 spine products as well?
