Viromed Medical AG initiates approval process for PulmoPlas® with the Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices (BfArM)

Rellingen, September 23, 2025 – Viromed Medical AG ("Viromed"; ISIN: DE000A3MQR65), a medical technology company and pioneer of cold plasma technology, has initiated the official approval process for its new product PulmoPlas® with the Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices („Bundesinstitut für Arzneimittel und Medizinprodukte“; BfArM). With this step, the company is setting the course for the future widespread use of this novel therapy.

PulmoPlas® is an innovative medical device based on cold plasma technology for the treatment of severe respiratory diseases. It is designed to effectively combat ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) in particular, thus offering patients a much-needed new treatment option.

Uwe Perbandt, CEO of Viromed Medical AG, explains: “With PulmoPlas®, we have developed a product that has the potential to make a decisive impact on one of the greatest medical challenges of our time – the fight against antimicrobial resistance. The approval process that has now begun is therefore not only a milestone for Viromed, but also an important step in the fight against multi-resistant pathogens.“

The BfArM approval process is a multi-stage procedure that Viromed is preparing in collaboration with renowned scientific partners. The Hannover Medical School (MHH) and the Helmholtz Centre for Infection Research (HZI) are supporting Viromed with their scientific expertise.

In parallel with the regular approval process, Viromed will apply for special approval to ensure the availability of PulmoPlas® as early as possible.

The start of the approval process was preceded by a large study on the treatment of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) with PulmoPlas® in intensive care patients; an ex vivo and in vivo study has already been initiated.
