The first non-surgical repair for Pelvic Organ Prolapse
Escala Medical's Apyx aims to provide a minimally invasive solution for early-stage pelvic organ prolapse, enhancing quality of life and preventing condition progression through clinical trials and commercialization.
Projectdetails
Introduction
Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP) affects nearly 50% of women over 40 years old globally. 89% of the cases seek treatment for symptomatic early-stage prolapse.
Current Challenges
Despite the high prevalence and the progression of POP over time, patients currently cannot be offered a repair solution until the condition worsens enough for surgical intervention.
Surgical Interventions
However, the surgical interventions for prolapse have several side effects, including:
- Prolonged recovery
- Pelvic pain
- Relapses of POP
Innovative Solution
Escala Medical has developed a minimally invasive and incision-free repair intervention for early-stage POP repair - Apyx.
Apyx Overview
Apyx is the first medical device for treating early-stage prolapse, regaining quality of life and preventing prolapse deterioration for the vast majority of currently unaddressed POP sufferers.
Project Goals
The EIC project will:
- Finalize the development of Apyx
- Conduct clinical trials
- Support scale-up and commercialization activities
