Regulatory Position & Clinical Development
Lionheart Health is developing additional applications of the Lionheart 240 Stimulus through its IRB-approved Lionheart Klotho Wellness Protocol, covering muscle, brain, immune, gut, vision, sexual vitality, joint, skin and hair/scalp wellness. The protocol combines bioelectric stimulation with diet, exercise, supplements and other specified modalities to evaluate safety and clinical outcomes.
The company’s regulatory strategy builds on the Sys*Stim 240 platform’s FDA 510(k) clearance, K113017. Lionheart’s research explores whether the cleared physiological effects, within multimodal protocols, can support additional wellness and therapeutic outcomes.
The company relies on the FDA-cleared indication of improving local circulation as a cornerstone for improvements in wellness of specific target organs. Muscle recovery is also a major contributor for specific organs targeted for wellness improvement, including muscles surrounding joints, facial cheek muscles, hair scalp muscles and within sexual organs, including improvements of range of motion of those target muscles.
