Elbit Medical Surges to One-Month High on Unit’s Phase I Result

By Shoshanna Solomon - 2012-01-03T09:22:39Z

Elbit Medical Technologies Ltd. (EMTC) advanced to the highest in almost a month after a unit reported that a Phase I clinical trial of a system for the treatment of essential tremor produced improvements in patients.

The shares (EMTC) of Elbit, which owns interests in companies that manufacture medical devices, surged 8.4 percent to 0.272 shekel, the highest level since Dec. 7, at 10:59 a.m. in Tel Aviv.

The unit completed the trial using the ExAblate 4000 system for the treatment of essential tremor, a nervous system disorder that causes rhythmic shaking. The test showed that most of the patients treated with the system registered “significant improvement” in tremors without any side effects, the company said in a filing to the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange today.
