InVivo Therapeutics Holdings Corp’s (OTCQB: NVIV) share volume surged on May 2nd, with 576,415 shares exchanging hands, more than three times more than its three month average of 165,982 shares per day.

This uptick in volume comes at the heels of the announcement by NVIV that it has begun shipment of its innovative investigational device, a degradable polymer Neuro-Spinal Scaffold for spinal cord injury (SCI) patients, for initiation of the company’s first clinical trial. 

InVivo has pioneered a new treatment platform utilizing a biocompatible polymer-based device that is intended to promote structural support for spinal cord regeneration while improving functional recovery and prognosis after a traumatic SCI.  In preclinical studies, the Neuro-Spinal Scaffold promoted cell adhesion, neurite sprouting, the growth of remodeled spinal cord tissue containing myelinated axons, and improved motor function.  There currently is no effective treatment for paralysis caused by SCI.

The company estimates the worldwide market for treating acute complete SCI to be over $500 million annually, and the chronic SCI market to be over $10 billion. This is the first in-human trial of InVivo’s novel investigational device, a critical step in addressing a major unmet need for patients with SCI.

NVIV closed at $1.92 on May 2nd, down $.27 (12.33%) from its previous close of $2.19.
