Boston Scientific is likely to invest in forming a dedicated sales team to commercialize the Endologix products and drive adoption, as part of the agreement.
On the other hand, Endologix will give commercial and clinical support and training to the Boston Scientific team, with an objective to ensure that the best possible clinical outcomes are achieved. Boston Scientific is likely to commence selling the products following local regulatory approval and subsequent commercial launch of the first product, expected in 2021.
Endologix’s current portfolio includes the Ovation iX Abdominal Stent Graft and the AFX2 Endovascular Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm System. Both the products are minimally invasive solutions designed for repairing aortic aneurysms and had secured US FDA clearance and CE mark.
