CereVasc eShunt® System Study Data Presented at the European Society of Minimally Invasive Neurological Therapy (ESMINT) Congress in Marseille

BOSTON, Sept. 13, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- CereVasc, Inc., a clinical-stage, medical device company developing novel treatments for neurological diseases, announced that data from a clinical study conducted in Argentina, examining the use of its eShunt System to treat communicating hydrocephalus (CH), was recently presented at the ESMINT Congress in Marseille.

Trial data reporting the investigational use of the eShunt System in patients with hydrocephalus secondary to subarachnoid hemorrhage was presented by Ivan Lylyk, M.D., one of the lead investigators based at Clínica La Sagrada Familia in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The study, conducted under the leadership of Pedro Lylyk, M.D., represents the first-ever treatment with the eShunt System and the world's first endovascular treatment of CH.

The presentation titled "Early Experience With the eShunt Implant in the Management Of Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Intractable Hydrocephalus" described the short-term impact of the eShunt System in patients with persistent CH and elevated intracranial pressure in lieu of an invasive surgical placement of a conventional ventriculo-peritoneal shunt.

"We are excited by the initial data demonstrating the potential to provide patients a minimally invasive treatment for communicating hydrocephalus. Transformational innovation in the management of hydrocephalus is long overdue. These results provide confidence that it may finally be on the horizon," said Dr. Pedro Lylyk.

Dan Levangie, CereVasc President & CEO stated, "We are thrilled by the results reported, and grateful to Dr. Lylyk and the team from Clinica Sagrada Familia for presenting their clinical experience with the eShunt System to the physician community. The data presented at ESMINT bolster our confidence in the potential of the Company's minimally invasive treatment of hydrocephalus as we transition to the pivotal clinical trial in early 2024."
