• Early feasibility work demonstrates Focal One system's ability to generate histotripsy lesions ex vivo
  

LYON, France, November 22, 2024 - EDAP TMS SA (Nasdaq: EDAP), the global leader in robotic energy-based therapies, today announced a scientific presentation which demonstrated the technical feasibility of performing non-thermal histotripsy energy delivery and generating histotripsy lesions in biological tissues ex vivo using the Company's Focal One Robotic HIFU technology. The results from the study were presented on November 19th at the 187th Acoustical Society of America meeting, which is taking place virtually from November 18 - 22, 2024.

Histotripsy is a non-ionizing, non-thermal and noninvasive technique for tissue ablation that generates controlled acoustic microcavitation using microsecond ultrasound pulses leading to mechanical tissue destruction.1 Over the last several years, the technology has been increasingly evaluated for applications in cancer as well as benign conditions.

"The results from this initial technical feasibility study demonstrate EDAP's continued commitment in driving innovation in our core focused ultrasound energy delivery technology," said Ryan Rhodes, Chief Executive Officer of EDAP TMS. "As focal therapy continues to evolve for the treatment of multiple conditions, histotripsy represents an expansion in energy-based therapies that we plan to further invest in and develop as part of our innovation roadmap. This technical milestone, in addition to our clinical development of real-time elastography to enable ablation treatment confirmation, demonstrates our commitment towards remaining the innovation leader in focal therapy."
