A well-known medical device manufacturer, Boston Scientific, recently announced that NICE has indicated that it will support the company's new GreenLight XPS laser system for the treatment of patients with enlarged prostate. This also cleared another obstacle for the company's new products to enter the UK market. NICE said that the use of this device will help the UK's NHS system save $3.2 million a year, and GreenLight offers new options for patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in addition to traditional surgical treatment options.
The GreenLight XPS system is designed to increase the energy of the laser beam by more than 50%, while the tissue vaporization efficiency of the device is also higher. The device was previously acquired by the company from Endo for $1.65 billion. Previously, this equipment has received FDA approval and CE certification.
The NICE guidance was based on a clinical study involving 291 patients in nine European countries. Clinical studies have shown that the GreenLight XPS system can significantly reduce postoperative complications and return to hospital, and its therapeutic effect is equivalent to the effect of traditional surgery. NICE recommends that this therapy be considered in patients with a lower risk of bleeding and no urinary retention. Managers estimate that there will be 13,600 patients benefiting from the UK each year.
The researchers said that although BPH does not threaten life, it can significantly affect the quality of life of male patients. Compared with traditional treatments, the GreenLight XPS system is more convenient and effective, and it is of great significance for patients to quickly resume their daily work life. Prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is one of the common diseases in middle-aged and elderly men, and it is increasing with the ageing of the global population. The incidence of benign prostatic hyperplasia increases with age. Therefore, it is foreseeable that the market for this disease will be even broader in the future.
