Max Mortenson will replace Alicia Napoli as vice president of Clinical and Regulatory Affairs. Cary Hagan, former vice president of EMEA Commercial Operations, will be replaced by Aurelio Sahagun.

David Stevens, the company’s interim Medical board chairman and CEO, maintains that compliance is a focus of the company’s efforts.
