About PLC Systems, Inc.

 

PLC Systems Inc. through its operating subsidiary, PLC Medical Systems, Inc., is a medical device company focused on innovative technologies for the cardiac and vascular markets. PLC's lead product, RenalGuard®, significantly reduces the onset of CIN in at-risk patients undergoing certain cardiac and vascular imaging procedures.

RenalGuard is CE-marked and is being sold in Europe and certain countries around the world via a network of distributors. Two investigator-sponsored studies in Europe have demonstrated RenalGuard's effectiveness at preventing CIN. The CIN-RG RenalGuard pivotal study is underway in the U.S. to support a planned Premarket Approval filing with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Following the Merger, PLC will assume the business of Viveve and the RenalGuard business will be sold to PLC’s debt holder GCP IV LLC, a subsidiary of Genesis Capital Advisors.
