LATHAM, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sep. 13, 2018--
AngioDynamics, Inc. (NASDAQ:ANGO), a leading provider of innovative,
minimally invasive medical devices for vascular access, peripheral
vascular disease and oncology, today announced an agreement to acquire
RadiaDyne, a privately held medical diagnostic and device company that
designs and develops patient dose monitoring technology to improve
cancer treatment outcomes.
This transaction expands AngioDynamics’ growing Oncology business by
adding RadiaDyne’s early-stage, proprietary OARtrac®
real-time radiation dose monitoring platform and other market-leading
oncology solutions, including the IsoLoc®/ImmobiLoc®
and Alatus® balloon stabilizing technologies.
“The acquisition of RadiaDyne, combined with our recent BioSentry asset
purchase, delivers on our commitment to build a world-class oncology
portfolio,” said Jim Clemmer, President and Chief Executive Officer of
AngioDynamics, Inc. “We believe that together, these disruptive,
patient-focused technologies will deliver safer, clinically-relevant,
economically-favorable solutions for patients. This combination will
significantly expand our value proposition and meaningfully change how
care is delivered.”
RadiaDyne’s recently launched OARtrac® system provides
precise, real-time measurement via a proprietary intracavitary device.
The system delivers critical dose feedback to medical and radiation
oncologists, providing customized adaptive radiotherapy, reduced side
effects, and improved clinical outcomes across all forms of radiation
and photon beam therapy.
RadiaDyne’s market-leading endorectal technology, IsoLoc®/ImmobiLoc®,
removes transient rectal gas using a patented gas-release tip and
reliably reduces prostate motion and radiation toxicity. RadiaDyne’s
Alatus® Vaginal Balloon Packing System provides physicians
with an improved method for optimal dosimetry protection and decreased
complications. Both patient-centric technologies improve clinical
outcomes and are used widely in practice today.
“We are excited that AngioDynamics chose to acquire RadiaDyne,” said
John Isham, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of RadiaDyne. “We are
proud of our technologies, which improve radiation delivery and lower
side effects for patients undergoing radiation therapy for cancer
treatment. This partnership immediately strengthens our commercial
infrastructure, allowing us to deliver the benefits of our innovative
products to a wider patient population.”
RadiaDyne’s trailing 12-months revenues exceeded $6 million, and the
acquisition is expected to close by the end of September and be neutral
to earnings on an adjusted basis.
