LOUVAIN LA NEUVE, Bélgica, 7 de junho 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Neurotech s.a. (http://www.neurotech-int.eu), uma desenvolvedora e fabricante de aparelhos de neuroestimulação, anuncia que obteve a marca CE européia para seus sistema ADNS-300, dedicado ao tratamento da epilepsia refratária. O cirurgicamente implantado sistema ADNS-300 envia impulsos elétricos suaves ao nervo vago no pescoço. Operando como um marca-passo, ele produz estímulos em direção ao cérebro.

"A terapia Advens" usa o estimulador ADNS-300 como uma opção terapêutica para aqueles pacientes que são refratários às drogas anti-epilépticas e não são indicados para cirurgia (cerebral) de epilepsia. O ADNS-300 é o primeiro neuroestimulador recarregável para estímulo do nervo vago do mundo. O aparelho inclui um eletrodo inovador e um promissor recurso "sensor", que poderão comprovar ser um significativo ineditismo tecnológico no controle da resposta à terapia. Pacientes usam um controle remoto e um carregador para ligar e desligar o sistema, e recarregar o neuroestimulador. "Sistemas recarregáveis podem revelar-se mais eficientes em custos, especialmente se intervenções cirúrgicas para substituir baterias são evitadas com o tempo. Isto ajuda pacientes a manterem uma vida mais independente, com um baixo risco de potenciais complicações associadas com a cirurgia de substituição de baterias". 'The role of Rechargeable Systems in Neuromodulation Paul Eldridge et al' ('O papel dos sistemas recarregáveis em neuromodulação Paul Eldridge et al').

"Estamos satisfeitos de termos alcançado este importante marco no desenvolvimento de nossa linha de produtos próprios e estamos na expectativa de disponibilizar esta terapia para todos os pacientes indicados de importantes centros europeus de excelência", disse o Sr. Michel Troosters, CEO da  Neurotech s.a. "Estamos convencidos que este aparelho médico singular, de ponta, provará ser uma importante ferramenta no cuidado a pacientes sofrendo de epilepsia refratária. O recurso sensor, uma vez clinicamente validado, poderia representar uma mudança de paradigma no campo da  estimulação do nervo vago (VNS, sigla em inglês)", adicionou o Sr. Troosters. Testes clínicos iniciais do aparelho e seus diferentes recursos apresentaram resultados promissores (El Tahry R, Raedt R, Mollet L et al, A novel implantable vagus nerve stimulation system (ADNS-300) for combined stimulation and recording of the vagus nerve. Epilepsy Res 2010;92:231-9) (El Tahry R, Raedt R, Mollet L et al, Um novo sistema implantável de estimulação do nervo vago (ADNS-300) para estimulação combinada e registro do nervo vago. Epilepsy Res 2010;92:231-9)

A prevalência da epilepsia ativa é, grosso modo, da categoria de 5-10 por 1.000 pessoas, de acordo com a Organização Mundial de Saúde. Aproximadamente 1/3 dos pacientes epilépticos são considerados "refratários" e assim potenciais candidatos à terapia Advens.

"A perspectiva comercial da Neurotech é muito atrativa na Europa, com aplicações diversificadas na linha de produtos. Estamos agora prontos para abrir o capital da empresa a novos investidores que posicionarão a Neurotech como a empresa de neuromodulação de categoria mundial", de acordo com o Sr. Philippe Durieux, CEO da Sopartec e membro do Conselho da  Neurotech. O lançamento de mercado deste novo produto está programado com uma apresentação gradual  à maioria dos países europeus.

Sobre Neurotech s.a. e a terapia  Advens para estimular o nervo vago:

Neurotech s.a. é uma divisão da Universidade Católica de Louvain ( Université Catholique de Louvain) (http://www.uclouvain.be) e foi fundada pela  SOPARTEC (http://www.sopartec.com), VIVES (http://www.vivesfund.com) e SRIW (http://www.sriw.be).

Neurotech ADNS-300, seu primeiro produto comercial, apresenta dois diferenciais essenciais: o ADNS-300 usa uma bateria recarregável e o aparelho não somente estimula o nervo mas também registra a atividade neural do nervo vago esquerdo, usando um inovador eletrodo de pulso. Este recurso de sensor exclusivo permite que o médico capture o "potencial de ação composto" (CAP, sigla em inglês) gerado pela estimulação, que deveria proporcionar um tratamento melhorado e personalizado.

A Neurotech desenvolve e fabrica seus produtos em colaboração com um consórcio cuidadosamente selecionado dos melhores fabricantes europeus de aparelhos médicos.

ADNS e Advens são marcas comerciais registradas.
