Chris Kallos's questions to AVITA Medical Inc (RCEL) leadership • Q1 2025
Question
Chris Kallos from MST Access sought clarification on the current status of the vitiligo initiative, specifically asking about the company's efforts to pursue reimbursement and whether discussions with agencies have been suspended.
Answer
CEO James Corbett explained that AVITA has paused commercial investment in the vitiligo indication due to the high uncertainty of achieving reimbursement in the office-based setting. He emphasized that the company is redirecting resources to the larger acute wound care market. While not an "absolute zero" in terms of discussions, he advised that no revenue from vitiligo should be included in future estimates until a defined path forward is announced.
