PLC's President and Chief Executive Officer, Mark R. Tauscher, said, "We are very pleased to extend the launch of our RenalGuard technology to another region of the world, working with our partners at Medimen. We believe Medimen's efforts will help raise awareness of the benefits of RenalGuard to a wider community of physicians in both Bangladesh and Pakistan."
Bangladesh and Pakistan join Italy and Spain as countries where PLC has now launched RenalGuard. PLC received the CE Mark Certificate for the RenalGuard System in late December 2007, and concluded its pilot safety trial in the U.S. late in 2007. Two investigator-sponsored randomized clinical trials to evaluate the use of RenalGuard in the prevention of CIN are currently underway in Italy. Recently, PLC was awarded its first patent for RenalGuard technology, in Canada.
