  1. Medvantage International Inc. Product Development Plan for the Vascular Coupling Device

  2. Overview Medvantage International Inc. has acquired the rights to engage in the final development phase and marketing of a new surgical device based on technology developed at the University of Utah Research Foundation that represents a practical alternative to existing manual suturing. Our coupler device is effective and user-friendly, with multiple procedure applications. The only competing device currently on the market is only partially effective and difficult and awkward to use for anastomosis. Medvantage will use its patent pending designs to fill the need in the market for an easier to use, more effective vascular coupling device.

  3. The Device Overview of the anastomosis process using Vascular Coupling Device (VCD): (A) Open status of the VCD. Four wings are attached to the base by plastic hinges and four stainless steel spikes can move back and forth (B) One end of the blood vessel is sent through the VCD and four spikes are pressed perpendicular through the vessel wall (C) Close status of the VCD. Four wings are rotated 90 degrees and the end of the blood vessel is stretched open. (D) Two blood vessels with VCDs are coupled with each other by inserting four spikes into the corresponding holes.

  4. USA and EU PATENTS Patent applications for the US and EU markets are submitted. The submission date was March 24, 2011 US- 2013/0204275 EU -11769684.9

  5. The Technology Traditional methods of using this type of surgical product call for arteries and veins to be sutured together using glue or staples. However, these techniques call for extreme caution when performing them in regards to microvascular surgery. The product that is currently being developed by the Company uses a clamping method that easily allows the surgeon to affix (through loopholes in the device) arteries or veins that can be attached to one another with a coupler. This system allows for less damage to the repaired tissue structures, enables the procedure to be completed in a fraction of the time and provides for a faster healing time for the patient. Additionally, the vascular coupling system and its couplers can be used in minimally invasive procedures.

  6. Expected Advantages • Versatile device that can be used for both arterial and venous repair or connection • Significantly reduces surgical time to complete the anastomosis • Minimizes human error and surgeon fatigue associated with manual suturing • Significantly reduces the amount of specialized training required to complete microvascular repair • Reduces the risk of thrombosis and thrombosis-related tissue or limb loss complications that are common with the hand-sewn technique

  7. The Market It is estimated that 340,000 microsurgery operations are performed in the US each year with a US market potential of $340M in 2011 Micro Vascular market was growing at 44% CAGR over 5 years . Medvantage is planning to capture 10% of this market in the first two years of operations.

  8. Continued DevelopmentFirst stage after acquiring the technology Medvantage International’s team will continue to perfect the design during the next few month, additional testing on animals and on cadavers is needed, additional prototype devices will be made, the prototype devices from a rapid prototype CNC company will be the testing models. The first stage of the acquisition is critical to the project, all of the final touches to the invention will be done during the period of 4-6 months. commence with component cost pricing, open a bid system for medical device manufacturers Within the period, pre FDA submittal preparation will be done. The estimated cost for the first stage is projected at $520,000

  9. FDA Process Introduction- classification of our product – Class II Pre submission review ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….$0.00 Biocompatibility testing………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..…$190,000 Preparation of a submittal package ……………………………………………………………………………………………….…$46,000 FDA consultant …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………...$12,500 Log-in Procedures ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..$4,400 Division Acceptance and Review – We identify predicate devices already cleared for sale in the US Reviewer Assignment FDA Requests for Additional Information Decision Letter Issued 510(k) Status Program The total process shall take 90-110 days with an associated cost of $ 253,000

  10. TIMELINE BELOW DEMONSTRATES OUR PROJECTIONS 510K Submission. ($2,750) Form #21CFR289. Determine what ISO standards and/or guidance documents apply. Predicate comparison study (Cannot be done with prototype). FDA has 90 days to approve or deny. January March April May June September FDA consultants prepare submission package. Within 30 days. ($12,500) Once approved, the manufacturing company registers device with FDA and pays about $2,000 per year. FDA responds within 30 days(usually less), and either okays device for submission or requests additional information. Manufacturing in place and unit is ready for sale, labeling done.

  11. Steps To FDA Approval

  12. Cuvaslar cost to FDA approval

  13. Marketing Plan Medvatage International will create effective market forces leading to cost savings that far exceed all other models. Healthcare Reform asks physicians and hospitals to align and develop innovative means to reduce cost while maintaining quality. Our goal at Medvantage is to be the leader in cost effectiveness in the vascular coupling category, passing our savings to Hospitals and Surgeons. Marketing Objectives

  14. Marketing Strategies

  15. Product Marketing • Management intends to develop an expansive sales and marketing literature package that will showcase the many benefits of using Medvantage’s Vascular Coupler Device. • Our device will be distributed through channels dominated by large distributors and strategic association with these players will be key to gaining acceptance in this market.  .

  16. Business and Consulting Team • Comprised of high level business executives. Additional executives will be added to the management team in the coming weeks. • FDA consultants with decades of experience to address and manage the regulatory path. • Medical consultants with extensive experience developing, manufacturing and commercializing medical technologies.

  17. Meet the Inventor Jay Agarwal, MD, is an assistant professor in the Department of Surgery, Division of Plastic Surgery, at the University of Utah School of Medicine and a Huntsman Cancer Institute investigator. His clinical interests include aesthetic plastic surgery, hand surgery, and reconstructive microsurgery with a focus on reconstruction of traumatic injuries and defects caused by cancer. He emphasizes using perforator flaps, a cutting-edge technique that uses the patient's own tissues to reconstruct the breast, head and neck, and extremities. Agarwal graduated from medical school at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, and completed residency training in both general surgery and plastic surgery at the University of Chicago. After six years in Chicago, he went on to specialize in hand surgery and microvascular surgery at the Buncke Clinic in San Francisco.
