REGULATED INFORMATION\u00a0<\/strong> Nyxoah BETTER SLEEP Trial Reaches its Primary Endpoints<\/strong><\/p>\n Mont-Saint-Guibert, Belgium \u2013 7 June 2021, 7:00 am CET \/ 1:00 am ET \u2013 Nyxoah SA (Euronext Brussels: NYXH)<\/strong>\u00a0(\u201cNyxoah\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d), a medical technology company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative solutions to treat Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), today announced that the BETTER SLEEP trial reached its primary safety and performance endpoints.<\/p>\n The BETTER SLEEP trial was designed to assess the long-term safety and performance of the Genio\u00ae bilateral hypoglossal nerve stimulation system (the \u201cGenio\u00ae system\u201d) in 42 adult OSA patients with and without Complete Concentric Collapse (CCC) of the soft palate.<\/p>\n Top-line results from the BETTER SLEEP study showed:<\/p>\n The Company expects to announce additional data with respect to the study as further analyses are conducted.<\/p>\n Dr. Richard Lewis, MBBS, FRACS, Principal Investigator of the BETTER SLEEP study, from Royal Perth Hospital and the University of Western Australia commented: \u201cThe top-line results of the BETTER SLEEP study are extremely encouraging. The most impressive aspect of the results is the responder rate of the CCC patient subgroup. These patients are excluded from unilateral hypoglossal nerve stimulation, but the BETTER SLEEP results showed a significant reduction in AHI in these patients following treatment with the Genio\u00ae system, which is the first device designed to deliver bilateral stimulation of the hypoglossal nerve. Overall, we have achieved a very high responder rate in both CCC and non-CCC patients, and the treatment with the Genio\u00ae system was well tolerated. We look forward to publishing this data in a leading medical journal.\u201d<\/p>\n Olivier Taelman, CEO of Nyxoah, stated: \u201cWe are excited by the top-line data, with the primary performance and safety endpoints met, supporting our belief that the Genio\u00ae system\u2019s bilateral stimulation of the hypoglossal nerve, has the potential to provide positive clinical outcomes for patients with CCC. We already engaged with the EU Notified Body to review these study data, with the goal of expanding the CE-marked indication to include CCC patients. In parallel, we plan to initiate dialogue with the FDA to further discuss the Genio\u00ae system as a potential treatment option for patients with CCC.\u201d Mr. Taelman continued, \u201cAdditionally, we observed a 70% responder rate in the non-CCC patient subgroup based on the Sher criteria, which strengthens our confidence in ongoing study outcomes.\u201d<\/p>\n About BETTER SLEEP Trial<\/strong> About Nyxoah<\/strong> Following the successful completion of the BLAST OSA study in patients with moderate to severe OSA, the Genio\u00ae system received its European CE Mark in 2019. The Company is currently conducting the BETTER SLEEP study in Australia and New Zealand for potential CE-mark indication expansion, the DREAM IDE pivotal study for potential FDA approval and the post-marketing EliSA study in Europe to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of the Genio\u00ae system.<\/p>\n For more information, please visit\u00a0www.nyxoah.com<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n Caution<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 CE marked since 2019.

\nINSIDE INFORMATION<\/strong><\/p>\n\n
\nBilatEral Hypoglossal Nerve StimulaTion for TreatmEnt of ObstRuctive SLEEP Apnoea, or BETTER SLEEP, is a multicenter, prospective, open-label, two-group clinical trial, designed to assess the safety and performance of the Genio\u00ae system for the treatment\u00a0of OSA in adult patients with and without CCC. The BETTER SLEEP trial includes a subgroup of CCC patients who are currently contraindicated for unilateral hypoglossal nerve stimulation. The trial was authorized by the Australian and New Zealand regulatory authorities and is being conducted in nine local medical centers. The primary safety endpoint was the incidence of device-related serious adverse events six months post-implantation. The primary performance endpoint was the change in the AHI score from baseline to six months post-implantation measured by counting the number of events (apnea or hypopnea) that occur per hour collected during an overnight sleep study. Patients with moderate to severe AHI scores between 15 and 65 and aged between 21 and 75 years were eligible for enrollment if they failed, refused, or did not tolerate PAP treatment. Patients with a body mass index above 32 kg\/m\u00b2 were excluded.<\/p>\n
\nNyxoah is a medical technology company focused on the development and commercialization of innovative solutions to treat OSA. Nyxoah\u2019s lead solution is the Genio\u00ae system, a CE-marked, patient-centered, minimally invasive, next generation hypoglossal neurostimulation therapy for treatment of moderate to severe OSA. OSA is the world\u2019s most common sleep disordered breathing condition that is associated with increased mortality risk and comorbidities including cardiovascular diseases, depression and stroke.<\/p>\n
