SUNNYVALE, California, August 1, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --

- Fondos para el permiso de la FDA y lanzamiento de POGO™, el primer y único sistema de control de glucosa todo en uno

Intuity Medical, Inc., una compañía de propiedad privada que desarrolla novedosas tecnologías de control de glucosa para el tratamiento de la diabetes, ha anunciado hoy que se ha asegurado unos fondos adicionales con el cierre del segundo tramo de su financiación de valores preferentes de serie D anunciados anteriormente, aumentando la serie D hasta llegar a un total de 76 millones de dólares. Un nuevo inversor, Accuitive Medical Ventures (AMV), se ha unido a la impresionante lista de inversores ya existentes, Investor Growth Capital (IGC), Thomas McNerney and Partners, Venrock, Versant Ventures y U.S. Venture Partners, que también han participado en el cierre.

Intuity Medical utilizará los fondos para conseguir el permiso de la FDA y para preparar la comercialización y distribución en Estados Unidos de POGO All-in-One System. POGO integra de forma única todos los suministros de pruebas de glucosa en sangre tradicionales dentro de un sistema adecuado y auto-contenido, proporcionando una facilidad de uso superior y discreción para millones de pacientes que deben comprobar su glucosa de forma regular para tratar su diabetes. Cuando se combina con Patterns™, la herramienta de gestión de datos propia basada en la web de Intuity Medical, POGO proporciona a los profesionales de la salud y pacientes una plataforma completa compartida para detectar y gestionar conductas importantes y tendencias que impactan en el control general de la glucosa.

"Hemos conseguido una cantidad destacada con la finalización de nuestro envío 510(k) y en la actualidad estamos pendientes del permiso de la FDA en relación a  POGO System", comentó Emory V. Anderson, director general y consejero delegado de Intuity Medical. "Con el aumento adicional en los fondos, seguiremos construyendo la infraestructura de la compañía para el lanzamiento en el mercado de Estados Unidos de POGO. Nuestro objetivo es conseguir que el tratamiento de la diabetes sea menos costoso gracias al suministro de una solución sencilla One-Step™ para los actuales test de glucosa en sangre".

Control de la glucosa

El autocontrol de la glucosa en sangre se estima como un mercado mundial de unos 8.000 millones de dólares. Ensayos clínicos han demostrado que las pruebas frecuentes de glucosa reducen el riesgo de complicaciones relacionadas por diabetes. La American Diabetes Association (ADA) recomienda que las personas con diabetes que utilizan inyecciones de insulina diarias comprueben su glucosa tres o más veces al día para un control glucémico óptimo.

Acerca de Intuity Medical

Intuity Medical se ha comprometido a simplificar el tratamiento de la diabetes por medio del desarrollo de tecnologías propias e innovadoras que ayudan a eliminar la mayoría de las principales barreras de las pruebas de la glucosa. POGO, de Intuity Medical, el primer sistema todo en uno diseñado para automatizar las pruebas dentro de un solo paso, sin necesidad de separar las suministros de pruebas. El diseño integrado único de POGO proporciona a los pacientes una discreción superior y flexibilidad para realizar pruebas, en cualquier momento y en todos los lugares y con la frecuencia recomendada por los profesionales de la salud, pudiendo así mejorar el control glucémico.
