ERCHONIA CLINICAL RESEARCH

Research sponsored by Erchonia, begins with a concept, identified as an area low-level laser application that can have a benefit. The management of Erchonia Corporation and a benchmark group of physicians, in the field of practice associated with the area, define the scope of a study. The pilot study is launched and worked with the benchmark group of physician(s). Results reached specific milestones are assessed and feasibility is determined. Once deemed feasible, a formal clinical trial protocol is developed. Erchonia works through an Investigational Review Board to ensure the protocol is acceptable to the FDA.

Clinical trials depending on their scope can take years to conduct. Erchonia Corporation makes this investment, as clinical trials are the foundational component of 510(k) submissions. Not all clinical trials result in market clearance by the FDA and not all FDA clearance is dependent on the submitter’s clinical data; however; Erchonia is committed to advance Laser Healthcare™ through sponsored clinical trials as doing so ensures the protocols are developed by Erchonia, making Erchonia and the physicians working on our behalf, the most knowledgeable to teach the protocol and making protocols themselves and intellectual assets, patentable.

The following list of shows the clinical trials and an outline of their progress. As a company, to protect our intellectual assets, not all clinical trials we are involved with are made public to ensure our competitive advantage, as such not all clinical trials are listed.
