TheraBionic is a medical device company with a current U.S. contact address in Bloomfield Township, Michigan. Co-inventor and co-founder Boris Pasche serves as CEO and board chair; the technology also has a related German TheraBionic company.
Its P1 system delivers low-level amplitude-modulated radiofrequency electromagnetic fields through an intrabuccal antenna placed on the tongue. The portable system is intended for prescribed use in eligible patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma.
FDA granted the system a Humanitarian Device Exemption in September 2023. The authorized population is adults with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma who have failed first- and second-line therapy. Studies in earlier-line liver cancer or other cancers are separate investigational uses and should not be presented as broadly authorized cancer treatment.
FDA granted H220001 on September 26, 2023 for adults aged 18 or older with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma who have failed first- and second-line therapy. The HDE pathway is based on safety and probable benefit; it should not be represented as a conventional PMA demonstration of effectiveness. [5][3][2]
FDA approved supplement S004 on May 27, 2026 for labeling changes and additional contraindications. It is a supplement to H220001, not a second original device authorization. Earlier-line HCC and other cancer applications remain distinct research uses. [5][3][2]
Handheld generator with a connected intrabuccal antenna for prescribed radiofrequency electromagnetic-field treatment. Its U.S. HDE indication is limited to eligible adults with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma after failure of first- and second-line therapy. [7][3][2]
