 PROFILE
Open up! Here comes Curon Medical, a development-stage medical products firm that makes minimally invasive tools to correct gastrointestinal disorders. Curon's FDA-approved Stretta System treats gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) by heating the esophageal sphincter with an electrode-tipped catheter. The heat causes the sphincter to contract, preventing stomach acid from returning to the esophagus. Curon's Secca System applies similar technology to the anal sphincter to treat fecal incontinence. Curon markets the Stretta System to hospitals, clinics, and gastroenterologists through both independent distributors and a direct sales force.
