Clinical Proof of Concept
"The Check-Cap novel imaging technology has been proven to be safe and feasible in our preliminary
clinical experience. It has successfully demonstrated imaging of prep-less human colon at ultra-low
dose compared to existing X-Ray based modalities. These results underpin the great potential of
Check-Cap imaging technology to become a very appealing tool for screening of pre-cancerous
polyps and colorectal cancer. Once efficacy is demonstrated, this clearly could make a fantastic
impact on screening and consequently on survival rates from this disease"

Head of Integrated Cancer Prevention Center,
Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center, Israel

Clinical proof of concept — Demonstrated Capabilities
- 3D imaging and representation (with no preparation)
- Reliable correlation between Compton Backscattering & X-Ray Florescence data, leading to clinical diameters values
- Automatic scan in motion triggered by predefined Activation Algorithm settings
- Colon segment position data with high accuracy
- All subjects reported smooth passage of capsule along the GI tract
- Acceptable surface imaging using ultra low dose accumulated during procedure
- Contrast material (oral) well tolerated by subjects
Quantitative colon surface detection and reconstruction along movement track
Results of studies suggest procedure is safe and uneventful
Results of first studies indicate that the current lower limit for visible feature size is 5- 6 mm,
and —10mm polyps should be well within the imaging capability of the Check-Cap capsule.
We believe that improvements in hardware and algorithm should enable us to decrease the lower
limit of visible feature size to 2 mm, to provide high detection rate for 5 mm polyps & very high
detection rate for 10 mm polyps.

New Health Care Law
One benefit of the new health care law: Free colon
cancer tests
1 in 3 U.S. adults have never been screened but will now have
coverage for this and other preventive services
Published: November 07. 2013 10:30 AM
If you've put off getting screened for colon cancer because you
didn't have health insurance, there's good news. Under the new
health care law. colorectal screening tests are availble at no
cost to you.
About a third of U.S. adults ages 50 to 75 have never been
screened for colon cancer or are not up to date with screening
recommendations, according to a new survey from the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention. And more than half of
those people had no health insurance. But through the new
health law, more Americans will have access to health
coverage and preventive services such as colorectal cancer
During a colonoscopy. doctors can detect and
screening tests.

Intellectual Property
Check-Cap has received patent grants from the U.S. patent office as well as from China,
EPO, Japan, Hong Kong and India for the core technology — "Intra lumen polyp detection".
Our granted patents (2010-11) cover an ingestible capsule with a radiation source
and radiation detectors that, when used in conjunction with a radio opaque contrast
agent, is adapted to detect clinically relevant findings in the colon.
Utilizing X-ray florescence and Compton back scatterings, the capsule is able to
measure the distance between the capsule and the colon wall and to distinguish
between gas and clinically significant findings in the gastrointestinal tract.
