Endonovo Therapeutics Provides Update on Liver Study


LOS ANGELES, CA, Oct. 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Endonovo Therapeutics, Inc. (OTCQB: ENDV) ("Endonovo" or the "Company"), a commercial-stage developer of non-invasive Electroceutical™ therapies, today announced results performed in a study to determine if Sofpulse® could counteract the effects of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) in an animal model.

One to 2 weeks of treatment with Sofpulse®, the non-invasive proprietary device of Endonovo Therapeutics, appeared to counteract several of the disease signs associated with NASH-associated liver damage.

Male mice, 8 weeks old were placed on an MCD diet (methionine-choline deficient diet) for either 7 or 14 days. Feeding mice a diet deficient in methionine and choline is a commonly used mouse model to study the inflammation and hepatic ballooning associated with NASH. To determine if Endonovo’s non-invasive medical device could ameliorate the manifestations of a NASH induced diet, mice were exposed to either a proprietary electroceutical therapy system or a sham system during the duration of the MCD diet.

The Hepatocyte ballooning: the hallmark of NASH was observed in all groups, however the animals treated with the medical device for 14 days showed a remarkable lessening of hepatic ballooning – smaller and less ballooning and inflammation.

Alan Collier, CEO of Endonovo Therapeutics, commented, “We are encouraged by the positive results in the mice treated with tPEMF. We believe further studies are necessary, but the 1 to 2 weeks of treatment with Sofpulse® appeared to counteract several of the disease signs attributed with NASH-associated liver damage.”
