Millions of adults in the United States live with depression and do not achieve adequate response to antidepressant therapy. While several next-step treatment options exist, real-world access remains limited due to clinic-dependent delivery models, infrastructure requirements, referral delays, and logistical barriers that limit patient uptake.
ProlivRx is a brain neuromodulation therapy designed for at-home use, addressing this critical treatment gap. FDA-approved in December 2025, the system is prescribed and supervised by a physician while being self-administered by the patient at home. This model expands access to next-step depression care for patients who are unable to reach specialized treatment centers, while maintaining the clinical oversight expected of prescription therapy.
"This investment enhances our ability to bring clinically validated brain stimulation therapy to patients who have not achieved adequate improvement with antidepressants," said Scott Drees, Chief Executive Officer of Neurolief. "ProlivRx was developed to close a critical access gap at a pivotal point in the depression care journey. With FDA approval and early commercial traction, we are scaling a model that delivers rigorous, evidence-based care in a way that is accessible and built for real-world adoption."
"As health systems shift toward value-based care, reaching high-need depression patients faster and more effectively is becoming increasingly critical," said Owen Muir, MD, Chief Medical Officer of Neurolief. "ProlivRx was developed with this reality in mind - delivering clinically supervised brain neuromodulation in the home, enabling clinicians to expand access, reduce treatment delays, and overcome the limitations of facility-based care."
