Movano Health Advances to Final Phase of FDA Review Process for EvieMED Ring

Following the positive outcome of a recent agency meeting, the Company will continue to work closely with the FDA to bring this pioneering healthcare product to market

PLEASANTON, Calif., Sept. 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Movano Health (Nasdaq: MOVE) announced today that a productive in-person meeting with the FDA on August 15, 2024, resulted in a positive outcome regarding the EvieMED Ring's wellness features and metrics. Following this development, the Company will be working with the agency to move forward with the review process. The EvieMED Ring is a wearable device designed to not only provide medical device functionality through its pulse oximetry feature, but also offer numerous wellness metrics related to sleep, activity and logging of mood, energy and other characteristics. 

"We are pleased that we have been able to work collaboratively with the FDA as we continue to seek a 510(k) clearance for EvieMED," said John Mastrototaro, President and CEO of Movano Health. "With a positive resolution to the ring's wellness features in hand, we look forward to completing the final review of our submission."

On April 21, 2024, Movano Health filed an updated 510(k) clearance application for the EvieMED Ring's pulse oximetry feature.  In late June, the FDA review team requested additional information related to the wellness aspects of EvieMED. In conjunction with the Company's regulatory advisors, Movano Health provided a draft response to the FDA's questions on July 10, 2024, and requested a meeting with the agency to review the Company's response.  The in-person meeting with the FDA was held on August 15, 2024.

Separately, Movano Health recently announced that it will begin taking D2C orders again for the Evie Ring on September 17, 2024. The expanded D2C launch will incorporate several product enhancements across sleep, activity and insights, as well as improved operations processes.
