[{"type":"text","content":"SOLANA BEACH, CALIFORNIA / ACCESS Newswire / August 4, 2025 / ClearPoint Neuro, Inc. (NASDAQ:CLPT) (\"Company\"), a global device, cell, and gene therapy-enabling company offering precise navigation to the brain and spine, today announced multiple key milestones demonstrating the progression of the Company's Biologics and Drug Delivery Portfolio including first commercial infusions in the United States, additional partners accepted for expedited review, creation of cell and gene infusion ICD-10 codes, and record clinical trial patients treated globally in the month of July.The first commercial treatments for KEBILIDI™ (eladocagene exuparvovec-tneq), a gene therapy approved for pediatric and adult patients with aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) deficiency-a rare, life-threatening neurological disorder, have been performed in the United States using the Company's SmartFlow® Neuro Cannula.
