Company closes deal with Italian hospital.
August 3, 2016
By: Business Wire
TransEnterix Inc. announced the first global sale of its ALF-X Surgical Robotic System to Humanitas Hospital in Milan, Italy. “We are pleased to announce the first global sale of our ALF-X System,” said Todd M. Pope, president and CEO of TransEnterix. “Humanitas is an academic hospital with a respected multi-specialty surgical program. The ALF-X enables an enhanced surgical program through the use of advanced robotic technology with responsible procedural economics.” The ALF-X System is CE Marked and is indicated for use in general surgery, gynecology, urology and thoracic surgery. The company is actively preparing a submission for U.S. Food and Drug Administration clearance for the ALF-X System. “The initiation of sales of ALF-X represents an important milestone towards realizing our vision to transform surgical robotics,” continued Pope. “We have made substantial progress building out our global commercial, distribution and service capabilities throughout 2016.” Humanitas is a highly specialized research and teaching hospital partnered with Humanitas University Medical School. Humanitas University trains globally-oriented healthcare professionals through interactive teaching methods and close integration with their clinical and research community. Humanitas believes that it is essential to unite organizational efficiency and clinical quality. For this reason, it was the first Italian general hospital and one of the few in Europe, to be certified for quality by the International Joint Commission. TransEnterix is a medical device company pioneering the use of robotics to improve minimally invasive surgery by addressing the clinical and economic challenges associated with current laparoscopic and robotic options. The company is focused on the commercialization of the ALF-X Surgical Robotic System, a multi-port robotic system that brings the advantages of robotic surgery to patients while enabling surgeons with innovative technology such as haptic feedback and eye sensing camera control. The Research Triangle Park, N.C.-based company is also developing the SurgiBot System, a single-port, robotically enhanced laparoscopic surgical platform. The ALF-X Surgical System has been granted a CE Mark but is not available for sale in the United States.
