About the Hemopurifier^®

The Aethlon Hemopurifier® is an investigational medical device designed to remove enveloped viruses, fragments of viruses, and tumor-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) from circulation. It is used extracorporeally with a blood pump and combines plasma separation, size exclusion, and affinity binding using a plant lectin resin that targets mannose-rich surfaces found on EVs and viral proteins. EVs released by solid tumors are believed to play a role in metastasis and the resistance to immunotherapies and chemotherapy. Removal of enveloped viruses, fragments of viruses, and extracellular vesicles has been demonstrated in both in vitro studies and in human patients.

 

The Hemopurifier® holds a U.S. Food and Drug Breakthrough Device Designation for:

The treatment of individuals with advanced or metastatic cancer unresponsive to or intolerant of standard-of-care therapy; and the treatment of life-threatening viruses not addressed with approved therapies.
