French national tender win
Lifeline Scientific (AIM: LSI, LSIC), the transplantation technology company, announces that its wholly owned subsidiary, Organ Recovery Systems, has been awarded a major national tender to supply LifePort(R) Kidney Transporters ('LifePort') and related products to 23 renal transplant programmes in France. This is the first national tender award in the EU for the Company.
The competitive tender was organized by UniHA, France's largest Health Cooperative Group, in co-operation with the French national authority for transplantation, L'Agence de la Biomédecine. The tender for the supply of machine preservation products followed the publication of clinical guidelines in France for machine perfusion of all deceased donor expanded criteria ('ECD') kidneys. ECDs are medically viable donors who present with one or more comorbidities such as age, hypertension, or diabetes mellitus.
In France, approximately half of donated kidneys come from ECDs. LifePort machine perfusion of ECD kidneys has been shown to improve patient outcomes, by reducing the risk of delayed graft function ('DGF') and increasing graft survival.(1,2) DGF is known to adversely impact near and long term graft performance and survival rates.
The tender award is for a three year term with a one year renewal option. It calls for Organ Recovery Systems to provide LifePort Kidney Transporters, plus, installation, commissioning and maintenance of machinery, consumables and accessories for perfusion and transport of kidneys.
LifePorts are presently employed by surgeons in over 160 transplant programmes across 27 countries, with over 47,000 clinical procedures to date. France is the largest market in Europe for kidney transplants with 2,687 deceased donor kidney transplant procedures reported in 2012.
David Kravitz, CEO of Lifeline Scientific, commented:
"We are delighted to have won this competitive tender in Europe's largest renal transplant market. We are grateful for the opportunity to provide technology that will help the French transplant surgical community bring life changing benefits to transplant patients."
