Advantages EmboLog® S
1. Good tolerability
(Haubold et al. 2020; Orlacchio et al. 2019)
2. Optimum degradation time
(Wiggermann et al. 2012)
3. Significant increase of the area of necrosis within the tumor tissue
(Ziemann et al. 2019)
4. Repeatable TACE
(Gross et al. 2019, Gruber-Rouh et al. 2018)
5. Established and clinically proved particle characteristics:
The production of degradable starch microspheres has been established at Serumwerk Bernburg AG since 2004. The developed and manufactured device, distributed by our former, exclusive distribution partner under its trademark EmboCept®*, was characterized by homogeneous, spherical particles that did not show any relevant deformations during catheter passage (Paprottka et al. 2016). The microspheres were optimized with regard to degradation (Wiggermann et al. 2012). The developed, manufactured and clinically proved starch microspheres are now distributed under the new product name EmboLog® S directly from Serumwerk Bernburg AG.
Why DSM-TACE?
- Flexibility of the TACE-treatment:
No limitation concerning active ingredient for DSM-TACE
Combinable with further treatment methods
- Use of a starch-based polymer
