Regulatory News:
THERACLION (ISIN: FR0010120402; Mnemo: ALTHE) (Paris:ALTHE),
an innovative company developing a scalable robotic platform for
non-invasive ultrasound therapy, today announced that 1000
patients suffering from varicose veins have been treated with the
SONOVEIN®. These patients have received non-invasive echotherapy
treatment in several centres in Europe and Asia, all led by
key-opinion leaders in their field.
The SONOVEIN, CE marked in 2019, is the only non-invasive
ablation therapy device for varicose veins. Since 1998, vascular
doctors have been looking for alternatives to the endovenous
thermal ablation. This device allows a treatment without the use of
a catheter, chemical injections, or incisions, thus leaves no
scars. The procedure can be performed in a non-sterile
environment.
“Without doubt, over the next few years, non-invasive treatment
of leg veins using High Intensity Focused Ultrasound, also called
echotherapy, is going to have a major impact on the way that
varicose veins and venous leg ulcers are treated by specialist
doctors and clinics. I am delighted to be involved with this
revolution in treatment” explains Prof. Whiteley, consultant venous
surgeon and founder of The Whiteley Clinics, UK. “Despite being
launched just as the Covid pandemic hit, the team at Theraclion has
done an amazing job at supporting the development of this exciting
non-invasive technique.” Prof. Whiteley, a renowned key opinion
leader in varicose vein treatment has been an early adopter, using
this disruptive technology since the CE mark of the 1st generation
of the SONOVEIN.
Theraclion’s ambition is to revolutionize the $10 billioni
varicose vein treatments and to give all patients access to
non-invasive treatments.
As part of its strategy, Theraclion keeps exploring key
partnership with significant corporate able to speed up the spread
of its technology in the USA (seeking FDA clearance), in Europe and
in Asia
Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI) and venous ulceration is a
common health problem causing significant patient morbidity. Apart
from the chronic physical and psychological disability caused to
the individual, it also results in an enormous economic burden to
the health care administration. Global prevalence rates of CVI are
variable but may be as high as 40% among females and 17% among
males1. Venous pathology generates around 5 million treatment
procedures per year 2.
About Theraclion At Theraclion we believe that surgery,
as we know it, is outdated. It converts optimistic patients into
anxious individuals, brilliant doctors into exhausted system
executors and stretches healthcare systems to the limit. We have
disrupted this convention by creating extracorporeal treatment
platforms. We replace surgery with a robotic treatment from outside
the body using High Intensity Focussed Ultrasound (HIFU). Our
leading edge echotherapy platforms are currently CE marked in
non-invasive treatment of varicose veins with SONOVEIN® and of
breast fibroadenomas and thyroid nodules with Echopulse®.
Located in Malakoff, near Paris, our employees live and breath
innovation by extensive clinical research and harness artificial
intelligence. The market of varicose veins treatment alone requires
around 5 million procedures annually. It is a dynamic market in
which we change paradigms by making non-invasive echotherapy the
new standard.
