Penumbra announced new data showing that patients with intermediate-risk pulmonary embolism (PE) treated with their computer assisted vacuum thrombectomy (CAVT) technology experienced better outcomes compared to other treatments. The study, presented at VIVA 2024, analyzed 2,060 adult patients and revealed that CAVT resulted in 25-35% shorter hospital stays, 25-30% higher rates of home discharge, and 2-3 times fewer complications. The technology also demonstrated potential financial benefits, with hospitals potentially seeing up to a 75% gain in profitable contribution margin if 10% more patients are treated with CAVT compared to anticoagulation alone.
Penumbra (NYSE: PEN) reported strong Q3 2024 financial results with total revenue of $301.0 million, up 11.1% year-over-year. U.S. thrombectomy revenue reached $162.1 million, increasing 21.2% compared to Q3 2023, driven by 32% growth in the VTE franchise. The company achieved net income of $29.5 million with a 9.8% margin and adjusted EBITDA of $56.7 million with an 18.8% margin. Gross profit was $200.3 million with a 66.5% margin.

Penumbra, Inc. (NYSE: PEN), a leading thrombectomy company, has completed enrollment for its THUNDER clinical study evaluating the safety and efficacy of its latest computer assisted vacuum thrombectomy (CAVT™) technology for acute ischemic stroke patients. The study focuses on the Penumbra System™ with Thunderbolt™ Aspiration Tubing for removing blood clots in the brain.
The Thunderbolt technology uses an advanced CAVT software algorithm to generate modulated aspiration, aiming to reduce friction and facilitate faster, more complete clot removal. The THUNDER study (NCT05437055) is a multi-center, single-arm study involving patients with acute ischemic stroke due to intracranial large vessel occlusion (LVO) eligible for mechanical thrombectomy. The primary efficacy endpoint is the revascularization of the occluded target vessel immediately post-procedure.
The Get Out the Clot campaign has been launched by leading medical societies to improve patient care for venous thromboembolism (VTE). This collaborative initiative aims to identify gaps in care, standardize treatment, and expand access to innovative solutions for blood clot conditions. VTE affects up to 900,000 Americans annually, causing approximately 100,000 deaths and up to $10 billion in associated costs.
The campaign highlights the importance of standardized care paths and multidisciplinary approaches, such as VTE or PE response teams (PERTs), to improve diagnosis and treatment. It also emphasizes the need for awareness of newer treatments like computer-assisted vacuum thrombectomy and mechanical thrombectomy, which can quickly remove blood clots and improve patient outcomes.
The initiative is supported by organizations including the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH), National Blood Clot Alliance (NBCA), Penumbra, Inc. (NYSE: PEN), The PERT Consortium™, and the Society for Vascular Medicine (SVM).
