REDWOOD CITY, Calif.

Gynesonics, Inc., a women’s health technology company focused on the development and commercialization of breakthrough products and procedures designed to transform the treatment of uterine fibroids, announced today that its Sonata™ System technology platform for the transcervically delivered incision-free treatment of uterine fibroids will be featured in five presentations at the 44th Annual American Association of Gynecologic Laparoscopists (AAGL) Global Congress to be held November 15-19 at the MGM Grand Conference Center in Las Vegas. The AAGL is the leading medical association promoting minimally invasive gynecologic surgery among surgeons, with over 7,000 members representing 110 countries worldwide.

One of the presentations focused on the Sonata System, titled “Early Clinical Response to Intrauterine Ultrasound-Guided Transcervical Radiofrequency Ablation” to be presented by Sebastiaan Veersema, M.D., Ph.D., has been selected as the winner of the Daniel F. Kott Award for the Best Abstract on New Instrumentation or Technology. The abstract, one of 33 accepted for the conference in the New Instrumentation or Technology category, was acknowledged by the AAGL for “excellent research in advancing minimally invasive gynecology.”

Of the 50-patient study, Dr. Veersema and his co-authors concluded that the Sonata System “produced significant clinical benefits including reduction in menstrual bleeding, within three months in the majority of patients.”

“The range of presentations accepted by the AAGL Congress regarding the Sonata platform describes its potential for advancing patient care. It is also emblematic of the strong clinician interest we are seeing in our Sonata System, our enhanced, next generation technology platform for the incision-free treatment of uterine fibroids,” said Gynesonics President and CEO Christopher M. Owens. “The presentations demonstrate that our technology is performing well, producing compelling outcomes.”

About Sonata System

The Sonata™ System, the next generation of Gynesonics’ technology platform (the previous generation referred to as VizAblate), uses radiofrequency energy to ablate fibroids under intrauterine sonography guidance. The Sonata™ System, including the SMART Targeting Guide, enables the gynecologist to target fibroids and optimize ablations within them. Sonata™ System’s design provides a straightforward, transcervical access for a uterus preserving, incision-free fibroid treatment. This intrauterine approach is designed to avoid the peritoneal cavity. In October 2014, Gynesonics announced FDA approval of the SONATA IDE pivotal trial for their latest generation Sonata™ System.
