OncoSil Medical Receives MDR Approval

OncoSil Medical Limited (ASX:OSL) 2 mins read

 Pancreatic cancer treatment device company OncoSil Medical Limited (ASX:OSL) (“OncoSil” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce that it has received Medical Device Regulation (MDR) certification from BSI, the EU Notified Body. The certification includes the lifting of existing post-market restrictions. This milestone highlights the growing robust clinical evidence supporting the safety of the OncoSil™ device and marks a significant step forward for the company.

The removal of these post-market restrictions will have a transformative impact on OncoSil’s operations. By eliminating local ethics and hospital governance approvals, OncoSil simplifies the initiation of commercial treatments, enabling smoother operations and allowing teams to focus on advancing commercial activities. The removal of operational constraints is projected to yield significant cost savings over the next three years, which will be reinvested in growth initiatives and strategic advancements of the OncoSilTM device. Simplified approval pathways further accelerate market access, shortening sales cycles and expanding the reach of the OncoSil™ device across the EU and UK, enhancing patient access and driving commercial success.

MDR certification also provides a critical opportunity to re-submit our application to the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) for approval in the Australian market, aligning with our commitment to improving global patient outcomes.

Nigel Lange, CEO & Managing Director of OncoSil Medical, said:

"Receiving MDR approval is a pivotal achievement for OncoSil Medical. It underscores the strength of our clinical evidence and the safety profile of the OncoSil™ device. With the lifting of post-market restrictions, we are now in a stronger position to streamline operations, focus on commercial growth, and accelerate market access across key European markets. Importantly, this milestone allows us to revisit opportunities in the Australian market, reinforcing our mission to bring life-changing treatments to more patients worldwide."
