MALAKOFF, France, June 06, 2024--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Regulatory News:

THERACLION (ISIN: FR0010120402; Mnemo: ALTHE innovative company developing a robotic platform for non-invasive high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) therapy, announces that its cutting-edge technology to treat varicose veins has recently been showcased at a number of prestigious medical conferences and in a new scientific journal:

  • Prof. Paolo Casoni and his team have achieved a 98% success rate with SONOVEIN®.

  • This result compares with other SONOVEIN studies, notably the US feasibility study’s 95% success rate, and with traditional treatments’ results, but being noninvasive lowers complication risks.

  • 5 Key Opinion Leaders presented on SONOVEIN at international conferences in the past month.

A new scientific publication on SONOVEIN® finds a 98.3% efficacy after 12 months

Prof. Paolo Casoni and his team conducted a 12-month study on the effect of High Intensity Focused Ultrasound on great saphenous vein (GSV) incompetence using SONOVEIN. Among the 188 limbs treated, the treated GSV segment showed a success rate of 98.3% at 12 months. The study was published in April in Phlebology, The Journal of Venous Disease, one of the most best-known peer-reviewed medical journal covering research on vascular diseases.

From New York to Venice, Key Opinion Leaders presented their results with SONOVEIN®

In the United States: Steve Elias, MD, one of main investigators of the Sonovein US feasibility study that ended in early 2023, presented his final results at the Venous Symposium: 100% feasibility result and 95% efficacy endpoint met. The event took place in central New York from May 8 to 11. It was attended by more than 600 people, mostly vascular surgeons, from 40 countries, predominantly the United States. An enthusiastic interest in the technology was forcefully communicated to the Theraclion team.

Steve Elias MD is also the main investigator in the Sonovein pivotal trial currently underway and with a view to receive FDA’s (Food & Drug Administration) approval by 2026.

In the United Kingdom: The College of Phlebology held a special event in Guildford on May 3 and 4, in which the Sonovein was introduced to a group of carefully selected vascular surgeons from all over the world. 35 attendees had the opportunity to witness a live case of Sonovein treatment on a patient, along with presentations from early adopters Luis Izquierdo Lamoca, MD, from Madrid, Spain, Guillaume Stalnikiewicz, MD, from Lille, France, and Prof. Mark Whiteley, from the UK. A successful event that generated significant excitement among potential new Sonovein users.
