Company at a Glance<br />

www.elmedical.co.il<br />

Elmedical offers practical and better solutions for two unmet urological diseases: non-muscle invasive<br />

bladder cancer (NMIBC) and chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS). In both diseases,<br />

other emerging thermal treatments already showed proof of concept and resulted in multiple procedures<br />

for each patient over the years. NMIBC and CP/CPPS are treated successfully by the company's office-based<br />

system (compact console and disposable catheters), which is approved in Europe and <strong>Israel</strong> as a urological<br />

thermal treatment platform. Elmedical's innovative solutions in these diseases offer superior clinical results<br />

and better economics.<br />

In the future, the company's platform plans to cover two more unmet urological diseases: overactive bladder<br />

(OAB) and interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS). In addition, Elmedical is aiming for its "hot<br />

urology solutions" to become the market preferred solutions in the four unmet diseases.<br />

Technology & Product(s)<br />

Elmedical's proprietary non-ablative high temperature innovative technologies UniThermia and DuoThermia,<br />

covered by issued and pending patents, have clear and unique advantages over the other emerging thermal<br />

treatments in NMIBC and CP/CPPS.<br />

The company's BWT (Bladder Wall Thermochemotherapy) treats NMIBC with uniform hyperthermia<br />

(UniThermia) all over the bladder with a high flow of a heated chemotherapy solution. The BWT powerful<br />

heat-chemotherapy synergy is very effective and has practically no adverse events.<br />

DuoThermia provides simultaneous thermal treatments to the prostate (by a heated balloon) and bladder<br />

(by a heated saline circulation) to treat CP/CPPS where it prevails, the prostate and bladder, with dedicated<br />

heat sources and the other pelvic organs with the heated blood perfusion.<br />
