MSAC concluded RECELL is as safe and effective as traditional autologous skin grafting and noted benefits including donor site sparing, reduced need for additional grafting, shorter hospital stays, less pain, and minimized scarring. Recommended uses include adults with ≥20% TBSA, pediatrics with ≥10% TBSA, and whole-of-face closure.
AVITA Medical (NASDAQ: RCEL) announced an immediate CEO transition: Board Chairman Cary Vance is named Interim CEO and will remain Chairman, while former CEO Jim Corbett is leaving the company.

The Company expects preliminary Q3 2025 revenue of approximately $17 million. AVITA secured a waiver from OrbiMed for the Q3 2025 trailing 12-month net revenue covenant and is negotiating revised future covenants. An earnings call is scheduled for November 6, 2025.

The NTAP designation was granted under CMS's alternative pathway for FDA Breakthrough Devices.

The technology prepares Spray-On Skin™ cells from a small sample of the patient's healthy skin.
