Symphony showcases its community innovations at flagship conference, including interoperability with Microsoft Teams

Symphony Communication Services

Symphony, the leading markets’ infrastructure and technology platform, will be interoperable with Microsoft Teams, it was announced at the company’s flagship event Symphony Innovate in New York on April 18th. The solution demonstrated two distinct capabilities to connect users on Symphony securely with Teams: connecting internal Teams users natively through Symphony’s directory and bi-directional chats with external contacts on WhatsApp, SMS and WeChat, through the embedded Symphony Connect app, complementing the firm’s existing video integration. Video. For the first time, Symphony showcased the power of AI when used with its Cloud9 Trader Voice product. The new generative AI-powered and AI noise-suppressed solution provides high-accuracy transcription and intelligence to voice trading interactions, extracting detailed analysis with models trained in trading floor jargon, informing strategic decisions, improving trader efficiency, and simplifying customer risk management. Through the use of AI, the solution supports deal tagging, allowing users to extract deal-related information from voice calls such as price, quantity, and asset class, to build a comprehensive, concise transaction summary. Symphony’s specialized language models are being used to identify relevant keywords, phrases, or context to mark a conversation as a deal confirmation call. Video. With the T+1 settlement cycle fast approaching, the operations directory showcased the ease of finding and connecting with peers, expediting issue resolution, and exception management on Symphony. The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation took to the stage to help share Symphony’s embedded collaboration platform (ECP) integration with Central Trade Match (CTM), DTCC’s platform to allocate and centrally match transactions globally. This integration - currently being piloted - will allow users to communicate with counterparties directly, reducing context switching and manual data entry to streamline post-trade matching and confirmation, an important aspect of T+1. Video. Another five ECP use cases were shown on stage in a clear validation of the relevance of Symphony’s interoperability play to the industry. CEO Brad Levy said: “Innovate is the forum where Symphony’s industry-leading customers and partners get to showcase the innovations built on our platform. We are proud to be connecting people and companies in a distributed, flexible, and interoperable way, through the right tech stack and infrastructure.” He explained: “In a time where firms must choose to disrupt or be disrupted, Symphony has the right technology to drive innovation and move with precision in a time of uncertainty.” CEO keynote video. Among the industry leaders on stage showcasing the community innovations were John Hoffman from DTCC, Guilis Aquino, Ella White, and David Feldman from Citi, Afzal Memon and Kate Finlayson from JP Morgan, Mike Torregrossa from UBS, Peter Williams and Anand Gupta from Wells Fargo, Brandi Love from RBC, Nigel Someck from MDXT, Sid Bhandari from Loanbook, Omar Gazarin and Rahul Ravikrishnan from Eidosmedia, Paul Taylor from HUB, Eslam Gebriel from Goldman Sachs, Steve Surdykowski from Capital One, Mauricio Sada-Paz and Robert Mackenzie Smith from Bank of America, Sarah Schaffer from BlackRock, Venu Bolisetty and Thomas Dolan from 28Stone, Philip Slavin and Kishan Bharwad from Taskize, Miguel Ferreria from Euroclear Bank, Colin Duggin from TP ICAP, Matthew Cheung from ipushpull, and Mohamed Khalifa from JP Morgan Private Bank.

New Standard of Care? IceCure Submits Final ICE3 Data To FDA, Minimally Invasive Cryoablation Shows Similar 5-year Recurrence Outcomes To Surgery With Hormone Therapy

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga IceCure Medical Ltd. (NASDAQ: ICCM), the Israeli medical device developer of ProSense®, an advanced liquid-nitrogen-based cryoablation therapy that destroys tumors (benign and cancerous) by freezing them, is one step closer to getting U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval to market ProSense® to treat patients with early-stage T1 invasive breast cancer with cryoablation and adjuvant hormone therapy. IceCure just reported final clinical trial results of 100% patient and physician satisfaction with the minimally invasive procedure. At the 5-year follow-up evaluation, 96.3% of the subgroup of patients treated with ProSense® cryoablation, followed by hormone therapy, were estimated to be free from local recurrence Earlier in April, the company submitted its final data to the FDA which included five-year follow-up data from its ICE3 study, a sub-analysis of the ICE3 results compared to studies that evaluated the risk of recurrence in patients with low-risk Luminal A breast cancer who were treated with lumpectomy surgery and received hormone therapy and real-world data from the use of ProSense® globally, including post-market commercial use as well as data from independent third-party studies. ProSense®, which received the FDA's Breakthrough Device Designation, is already cleared for use in the U.S. for several other indications, including treating benign tumors of the breast and tumors in the kidney and liver. Positive Topline Results IceCure’s ICE3 study was the largest controlled multicenter clinical trial ever performed for liquid nitrogen (LN2) based cryoablation of low-risk, early-stage malignant breast tumors. The five-year recurrence-free rates from the study, which evaluated IceCure's minimally invasive 20-to-40-minute outpatient cryoablation procedure, were in line with expectations and showed similar outcomes to lumpectomy, the current standard of care for early-stage breast cancer patients, which is breast surgery that requires an operating room and hospital stay. In the ICE3 study, 96.39% of patients (187 out of 194 patients) were local recurrence-free with no significant device-related adverse events or complications reported. A comparison of this result from the ICE3 study shows similar outcomes in five-year recurrence rates compared to patients in other studies who were treated with lumpectomy followed by hormone therapy. The LUMINA study reported a 97.7% recurrence-free rate at five-year follow-up and the PRISMA meta-study, which included Lumina, reported a 97.19% recurrence-free rate at five-year follow-up. ICE3 results are also in line with data from real-world use of ProSense® by third parties in territories where IceCure's cryoablation system is used to treat early-stage breast cancer. In the final ICE3 analysis, no significant device-related adverse events or complications were reported, and all patients and physicians reported satisfaction with the ProSense® procedure, the company said. That means 100% of physicians and patients were happy with the treatments they received. Dr. Richard Fine, ICE3’s lead investigator, presented final data from the ICE3 study at the American Society of Breast Surgeons 25th Annual Meeting, where he commented, "Cryoablation is a safe, minimally invasive ablative procedure with acceptably low five-year same breast recurrence similar to that of lumpectomy for similar patient populations, with the benefit of being an office-based, nonsurgical treatment. Further study within a clinical trial or registry is needed to confirm cryoablation as a viable alternative to surgical excision in the appropriately selected patients.” Dr. Fine’s presentation, which received the conference’s Scientific Impact Award, was well received by breast surgeons who are constantly looking for treatments that are minimally invasive and effective. A New Way To Treat An Old Problem What makes cryoablation so attractive to freeze and destroy tumors is that it is minimally invasive, has little pain associated with it and thanks to an ultrasound or computerized tomography can accurately destroy diseased tissue within the tumor zone. Cryoablation also costs less than a lumpectomy and reduces the risk of follow-up surgery. With a lumpectomy, the re-excision rate is between 14-21%. IceCure’s ProSense® has the potential to become a new standard of care treatment for women with early-stage T1 invasive breast cancer, marking a major improvement to the care available today. Some researchers have even called cryoablation the “ ultimate esthetic solution for breast cancer ” because it reduces the need for pre-emptive or corrective surgical procedures to maintain or restore breast volume, contour and symmetry. "Initial reimbursement codes are already in place and our U.S. marketing and commercial team is ready, as we await the FDA's response. Driven by favorable healthcare economics combined with patient satisfaction and demand, we expect rapid adoption pending FDA granting the DeNovo Classification Request for Marketing Approval," stated IceCure CEO Eyal Shamir. With Reimbursement In Place, IceCure Is Ready To Go With the final data submitted, IceCure is ready to go once the FDA gives it the green light. The company received what it said was the first Medicare coverage approval of a cryoablation procedure for breast cancer. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) set the reimbursement payment at about $3,400 for the facility alone. Additional coverage, including payment for the physician, is expected upon establishment of the permanent CPT Category I code, which is conditioned on factors including the company's receipt of FDA marketing authorization of ProSense® for breast cancer. Having that reimbursement should enhance the usage of the ProSense® system. Nearly 300,000 women are diagnosed with invasive breast cancer yearly, and the majority have to undergo invasive treatments and deal with follow-up surgeries in the quest to live cancer-free. IceCure is changing that by freezing tumors to destroy them. IceCure seems poised to do exactly what it set out to do: provide women with an alternative minimally invasive treatment option.

INSIDER BUYING: Vuzix (NASDAQ: VUZI) Executives Including CEO Snap Up Shares

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga Vuzix Corp. (NASDAQ: VUZI), the maker of smart glasses and augmented reality (AR) products, seems to be off to a good start in 2024 with several potential big deals in the works for both its enterprise products and original equipment manufacturing projects. At the same time, the Rochester, New York-based smart glasses maker with more than 375 patents is in a judicious cost-cutting mode, reducing expenses, improving margins and extending its operational runway. "In 2023, Vuzix made important advancements in our product development, core optics technologies and manufacturing, all of which uniquely position Vuzix to play an important role in the expected to become multibillion-dollar AR smart glasses market," said Paul Travers, President and CEO of Vuzix, when reporting full-year 2023 results. “We have a good book of business with identified opportunities, representing large potential deals and cornerstone customers for our enterprise products. And on the OEM side of our business, we expect to enter into several new projects with new and existing defense and consumer product-focused customers over the course of the year.” Insider Buying Signals Confidence Travers and other executives at Vuzix believe in the company not just as employees but also as investors. They have been showing their confidence in the company’s prospects by buying up stock during the past month. When insiders, namely CEOs, buy shares of their company, it signals executives have confidence in the business and/or think the stock is undervalued. It’s something investors pay close attention to. If insiders were selling shares rather than purchasing them, it could be a red flag that something is amiss. Based on Travers’ recent share purchases, he’s confident of the value Vuzix offers. On April 18, the CEO purchased 7,500 shares at $1.34 per share for $10,062. Days later, Travers was buying more, purchasing 14,500 shares at $1.25 each, for a cost of $18, 163. All told the CEO spent $28,225 to buy 22,000 shares over a few days. Meanwhile, director Timothy Heydenreich Harned purchased 20,000 shares on April 22 at $1.31 per share, totaling $26,188. The moves on the part of the executives demonstrate leadership’s strong confidence in the company’s future. After all, if they weren’t so upbeat about the company and thus its stock’s prospects, they wouldn’t spend thousands of dollars to increase their holdings. It's worth noting that Vuzix’s executives aren’t deterred by volatility in the stock either. Travers spent $1.34 per share one day and when he saw an opportunity to acquire more again when the stock fell to $1.25 per share, he pounced on the opportunity. Winning Deals, Making Tech Inroads There seem to be many reasons for executives expressing confidence in Vuzix, given its 20-plus-year leadership position in the smart glasses market and the growth potential of that industry. Vuzix reports that it pioneered workforce AR and still continues to have the industry’s most diverse portfolio of enterprise smart glasses, with form factors ranging from lifestyle (Vuzix Z100), to sporty (Blade 2), to safety (Shield), to industrial and medical (M series). All of their AR products offer users a portable, high-quality viewing experience, and they expect their product portfolio, OEM and display system offerings to continue to diversify. They are also operating in an industry poised for more growth. The global smart glasses market is forecast to reach $13.68 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 10.3% from 2024 through 2031. Vuzix’s success with customers for its existing and future technology is another reason Travers and other executives are so optimistic. Consider its Incognito™ Waveguide Technology, which effectively conceals any forward-facing content displayed on smart glasses. Vuzix waveguides are renowned for their exceptional brightness, clarity and performance. They can accommodate larger fields of view (FOVs) and are adaptable to a diverse range of form factors. These waveguides necessitate a robust display engine specifically designed for this purpose. Consequently, has engineered and introduced the world's smallest and most advanced display engine, which is about the size of a pencil eraser and has been recognized in the media as the tiniest microLED projector available. Vuzix reports it is engaged with potential customers and development partners ranging from U.S. and international defense organizations to a number of well-known brands and OEM supply companies. Orders Continue to Flow Then there are its Vuzix M400 smart glasses. The company just received additional orders for the smart glasses from a Fortune 100 global retailer that is using the glasses to support its warehousing and logistic needs. The smart glasses are being used in multiple locations globally including the U.S., Canada, Mexico and throughout Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA). Vuzix reports that customers have continued to expand across an increasing number of their company locations since the start of 2024. This year is shaping up to be a busy one for Vuzix both on the enterprise and OEM fronts. So much so that executives, including CEO Travers, are buying up shares, signaling their confidence. With more news expected in the months to come, investors may want to pay close attention to what insiders do next. Featured photo by Sabri Tuzcu on Unsplash.

The Bitcoin market cap surged from $1.26T to $1.28T during that time. The former CEO of MicroStrategy, Michael Saylor, stated that Bitcoin is refreshing.
