HINGHAM, Mass., June 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Microbot Medical Inc. (Nasdaq: MBOT), developer of the innovative LIBERTY Endovascular Robotic System, today announced the continued expansion of its commercial team in preparation for the anticipated U.S. launch of the LIBERTY System, which is projected during the third quarter of 2025. The Company remains actively engaged with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), with a 510(k) decision now expected during the third quarter of this year. This updated FDA decision timeline remains within the FDA’s original scheduled review window and is not expected to affect the Company’s planned launch upon clearance.

“Our recent interactions with the FDA have been productive, and we remain confident in the process and outcome,” said Harel Gadot, Chairman, CEO & President. “We continue to operate with full momentum and position the Company for an anticipated launch during the third quarter of this year, which includes the continued build out of our commercial infrastructure and preparing the organization to deliver on our strategy.”

As part of the Company’s ongoing launch preparation, it recently expanded its commercial team with the addition of Michael Lytle as the head of Sales Operations & Analytics. Mr. Lytle brings deep experience in sales support, data analysis, and operational excellence. He is expected to play a key role in shaping market intelligence tools and processes to optimize the sales cycle and drive strategic growth.

Prior to joining Microbot, Mr. Lytle held increasing leadership roles at ZOLL Cardiac Management Solutions (CMS), a division of ZOLL Medical Corporation, where he supported the rollout of innovative cardiac care technologies.

“We believe that Michael’s addition will strengthen our launch readiness plans, and that his expertise will help us target the right markets, allocate resources effectively, and accelerate commercial execution,” concluded Mr. Gadot.

The LIBERTY System is currently under FDA review, is not available for sales in the US, and clearance is not guaranteed.
