CANADY HELIOS™ COLD PLASMA

The Canady Helios Cold Plasma (CHCP) System is designed to deliver a non-thermal Cold Atmospheric Plasma (CAP) and Electromagnetic Field that targets cells, disrupts cellular homeostasis and eliminates the cell’s ability to reproduce and survive.

The CHCP System delivers a plasma beam that creates plasma species known as reactive oxygen and reactive nitrogen species (RNS and ROS) and an electromagnetic field referred to as the Plasma Treatment Electromagnetic Filed (PTEF).

The Plasma Treatment Electromagnetic Field (PTEF)

Cold Atmospheric Plasma is used to selectively target cells in the PTEF and disrupt the cell’s ability to reproduce and survive

According to JCRI-ABTS Research, the Plasma Spray creates an Electromagnetic Field in the PTEF which causes Irreversible Electroporation (IRE) or openings in the cell’s membrane. 

The openings allow the RNS and ROS to  permeate the cells membrane reducing the cell’s viability leading to apoptosis (cell death).

Used intraoperatively (during your surgery), this plasma treatment requires only one application and uses specific time and dosing applications unique to each diagnosis. It is delivered directly to the surgical margin after tumor removal and only takes minutes.

Because it’s a non-thermal process (75-86° F), normal tissue is left unharmed, so it can be used safely on organs, around ducts and vessels, and near other vital structures.

Plasma Classification

In addition to the benefits related to surgical margin ablation, preclinical research and various studies suggest that cells treated with CHCP release antigens that may cause a systemic effect, potentially leading to new targeted therapies or as adjuncts to other standards of care.

The Canady Helios Cold Plasma System was proven safe in a successful FDA Phase 1 Clinical Trial. It is currently indicated for the ablation of soft tissue and is under clinical investigation for the potential use in solid tumors.
