Combat Medical has been working since 2008 with a multidisciplinary team of urologists, nurses, medical engineers, production specialists and end users to develop a hyperthermic delivery system – known as COMBAT BRS, which combines with chemotherapy to treat certain types of Bladder Cancer. We are committed to providing an effective, accurate and affordable system that optimises the intravesical instillation of chemotherapy and achieves real measurable results.
Combat Medical is committed to investing in research and clinical evidence based studies to demonstrate the effectiveness of our technology in order to create a solid foundation for its use. HIVEC™ (Hyperthermic Intra-VEsical Chemotherapy) I and II prospective, randomised, international, multicentre clinical trials in 494 NMIBC intermediate risk patients are now underway – see HIVEC™ area for details of all our current trials. In the future Combat Medical will continue to invest in and initiate further studies and clinical trials in order to get conclusive information for better disease management.
The COMBAT BRS system has been CE marked and in clinical use since 2011, it is currently used in clinical practice in 33 countries globally. We partner with a network of local distributors to ensure that the COMBAT BRS system is available to bladder cancer patients all around the world, in order to deliver HIVEC™ treatment. We are constantly working towards increasing its availability on an international level.
In addition to the COMBAT BRS System, we also have in house R&D and Product Development departments that constantly work towards enhancing our current products as well as researching new areas in which we can harness our unique technology. It is our hope that in the future we continue to develop, manufacture and supply innovate therapies that utilise hyperthermic technology for many disease areas.
