About Xillix
Xillix Technologies Corp. is a Canadian medical device company and the world leader in fluorescence endoscopy for improved cancer detection. Xillix's currently approved device, Onco-LIFE(TM), incorporates fluorescence and white-light endoscopy in a single device that has been developed for the detection and localization of lung and gastrointestinal (GI) cancers. An international multicenter lung cancer clinical trial of Onco-LIFE demonstrated a 325% per-lesion improvement in the detection of early lung cancer (moderate-severe dysplasia and carcinoma in situ) and a 250% per-patient improvement compared to white-light alone. Onco-LIFE is approved for sale in the United States for the lung application and in Europe, Canada and Australia for both lung and GI applications. The Company also recently announced that it has developed a new product, LIFE Luminus(TM), designed to allow fluorescence imaging of the colon using conventional video endoscope technology.
