ENDOS Medical is an early-stage medical device company that focuses on developing innovative endoscopic technologies for the treatment of obesity. Its primary product under development is the E-Sleeve system, a single-use, minimally invasive device intended for performing endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty (ESG). This system is designed to simplify the procedure and reduce the need for manual suturing, with the goal of making ESG more accessible, cost-effective, and suitable for outpatient settings.
The company was co-founded by Yaakov (Jacob) Kahlon and Vyacheslav (Slava) Starobinsky, both of whom have extensive experience in medical device research and development. Mr. Kahlon is a mechanical engineer with over 15 years of experience in the industry, and Mr. Starobinsky has more than 20 years of experience, including operating a development consultancy for medical startups.
The company is currently conducting pre-clinical development, including prototype optimization and ex-vivo testing, and is preparing for in-vivo studies. Regulatory planning is underway, targeting FDA 510(k) clearance and CE marking. A provisional patent has been filed for the E-Sleeve system.
