Pharmtex Medical is the official Siemens Healthineers distributor in Bulgaria. We offer Embozene TANDEM Microspheres — microspheres that can be loaded with a chemotherapeutic agent before transarterial chemoembolization (TACE).
The microspheres load the active substance, such as doxorubicin or irinotecan. They then release it locally within the tumor. At the same time, they achieve embolization of the feeding vessels.
Applications
- Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) for hepatocellular carcinoma
- Controlled, sustained release of chemotherapeutic agent within tumor tissue
- Reduced systemic toxicity compared to standard systemic chemotherapy
When the protocol calls for bland embolization instead of a drug-loaded particle, the same portfolio covers calibrated embolization microspheres in a range of defined sizes. Feeding vessels for either technique can be identified in advance using AI embolization planning software.
For the underlying mechanism, see our technical overview of how drug-eluting microspheres deliver chemotherapy, which sets out the evidence, documentation and manufacturing controls involved.
As the official Siemens Healthineers distributor, Pharmtex Medical makes Embozene TANDEM Microspheres available to Bulgarian hospitals. Beyond distribution, our core focus remains the development and OEM production of nitinol components for medical devices under ISO 13485. We combine hand-made nitinol processing with precision engineering, and we aim to become a leading global nitinol component manufacturer. Learn more about our OEM & Partnership program.
