Profound Medical Says Enters Into U.S. Multi-Center Commercial Agreement With Akumin For TULSA-PRO

Author: Benzinga Newsdesk | May 06, 2021 07:17am

Profound Medical Corp. (NASDAQ:PROF, TSX:PRN) ("Profound" or the "Company"), a commercial-stage medical device company that develops and markets customizable, incision-free therapies for the ablation of diseased tissue, today announced the signing of a multi-site imaging center agreement for TULSA-PRO® with Akumin Inc. (TSX:AKU) ("Akumin"), a leading provider of freestanding, fixed-site outpatient diagnostic imaging services in the United States.
 

Pursuant to the agreement, Profound expects to install TULSA-PRO® systems at up to 10 Akumin centers to be outfitted with diagnostic and therapeutic imaging services specifically dedicated towards men's health. All of these TULSA-PRO® systems will be placed under Profound's per procedure business model. The initial geographic focus of the relationship will be in the State of Florida, with Texas and Pennsylvania expected to follow. Based upon the success of the first 10 installations, the two companies hope to expand their relationship in the future to include additional Akumin men's health centers.

"We believe that Akumin will be a particularly strong partner for us given its strategy to become a leading full-service provider of men's health and its geographic density in Florida, one of the largest markets for prostate care in the country," commented Arun Menawat, Profound's CEO and Chairman. "With respect to timing, we currently expect the first Akumin TULSA-PRO® site to be operational in the fourth quarter of 2021."

"Akumin is introducing a new service offering with centers focused on men's health. In collaboration with urologists and using a consumer-centric approach, Akumin's goal is to redefine the delivery of prostate care through diagnostic imaging, minimally invasive treatment, and post-treatment monitoring," said Riadh Zine, President and Chief Executive Officer of Akumin. "TULSA-PRO® is a customizable and incision-free prostate disease treatment system that minimizes the impact on men's functional abilities and provides the highest quality of life after treatment. We are excited to partner with Profound to offer this revolutionary technology to our physicians and patients."
