Synaptic’s SEA Technology
Synaptic is a noninvasive technology cleared to market
by the FDA for pain relief. Simply speaking, Synaptic
devices provide an electrical waveform that mimics indigenous
central nervous system electrical waveforms. This stimulates
the central nervous system.
At present the Synaptic Electronic Activation (SEA)
technology is not being marketed for any medical use
based on this underlying premise. For more than a decade,
it has been a ‘diamond hidden in the rough’ that simply
needed capital to raise it to the position in the health
care marketplace that it is capable of occupying.
Company History
The Synaptic Corporation began doing business 16 years
ago. At that time, management elected to sell the Synaptic
medical device under a narrow regulatory provision that
allowed it to be marketed as a “TENS” device. This enabled
the Company to go into business on modest capitalization
after FDA cleared but without investing in the clinical
studies needed to make further claims. However, the
Synaptic SEA technology was always significantly different
then TENS devices—which cease relieving pain the moment
they are switched off.
Over the years, the Company frequently received physician
reports that, after treatment with the Synaptic device,
patients with other medical conditions had positive
results with pain as well as relief from seemingly unrelated
disorders.
Dr. Leon M. Silverstone –who invented the technology–
has continued to research clinical applications and
completed two additional SEA patents that he assigned
to the Company, giving the present technology patent
coverage until 2018. These subsequently will be withdrawn
and replaced by new, broader patents in a comprehensive
world-wide IP protection strategy.
The Current Opportunity
In the view of its Directors, the Company presents an
opportunity of proportions rarely encountered by small
business investors with socially conscious motives.
We believe the Synaptic technology is capable of returning
to patients a quality of life that has been stolen from
them by a wide range of painful issues for which there
is no effective treatment today. In almost all cases,
the chemical or invasive treatments now being utilized
involve the use of only marginally effective drugs with
significant side effects or dangerous surgeries with
only moderate results. These approaches do not restore
functioning and they are ineffective in relieving conditions
that have robbed such patients of their quality of life.
A key first priority for the Company is to raise the
funds necessary to undertake clinical testing to prove
the effectiveness of the Synaptic technology in treating
three neurological disorders with no effective treatment
available in present medicine Synaptic’s SEA technology
is already cleared by FDA’s for the following three
categories: Acute Pain, Chronic Pain, and Acute Post-Surgical
or Post-Traumatic Pain.)
A CD entitled “Synaptic Results with Patients” (available
to potential investors but not to potential customers
of Synaptic medical devices) shows graphically the results
of the Synaptic technology in the treatment of patients
with several of the potential target disorders. These
cases do not constitute controlled studies of the type
needed for a study for FDA review. But they do show
that there is excellent reason to believe Synaptic’s
SEA technology will prove effective when evaluated in
controlled studies.
The Company’s intention is to engage experienced consultants
for the design of clinical studies and skilled, independent
medical researchers of high repute to conduct the clinical
studies upon which the applications for marketing approvals
will be founded. These will provide the basis for immense
growth in shareholder value. Each such approval is expected
to significantly affect share prices. In addition, we
are identifying and licensing strategic partners that
are abe to fast track development for target disorders
and respond to anticipated demand.
