Spermosens AB ("Spermosens" or the "Company") is pleased to announce strong progress in its ongoing clinical study at Reproductive Medicine Center (RMC) in Malmö, where the Company is evaluating its innovative JUNO-Checked technology. The study, designed to demonstrate the diagnostic relevance of JUNO-Checked in addressing male infertility, is progressing ahead of expectations with a strong recruitment rate.
The excellent collaboration between Spermosens and RMC has played a key role in exceeding recruitment goals, with couples now being enrolled at a faster pace than initially expected. The next generation JUNO-Checked technology is performing consistently which indicates good quality of clinical data.
Given the encouraging performance and recruitment progress, Spermosens is now aiming at interim results from the clinical trial by the end of the year, provided that the current pace and positive trajectory continue. These results will provide important insights into the technology's ability to predict the male fertility potential.
Tore Duvold, CEO of Spermosens, comments: “We are delighted with the progress of the clinical study and our collaboration with RMC. The rapid recruitment of couples, along with the strong performance of our next generation JUNO-Checked, strengthens our belief in the diagnostic potential of this technology. If the study continues to progress as we have seen so far, we anticipate being able to share interim results before year-end, bringing us a step closer to offering a new solution for male infertility diagnostics.”
Maria Liljander, CSO of Spermosens, comments: "The progress with recruitment at RMC, combined with the good performance of our JUNO-Checked technology, are highly promising. Working closely with the clinical team on-site allows us to monitor developments in real-time and ensure smooth execution. The early data we're seeing is encouraging, and I'm hopeful that we can share the interim results by year-end. This is a crucial step toward validating the technology and demonstrating its diagnostic potential for male fertility."
The JUNO-Checked technology addresses a major gap in male infertility diagnostics by measuring the sperm’s capacity to bind to the egg, providing a more comprehensive understanding of sperm function.
