Arch Therapeutics OTCQB ARTH) Company Overview and Description
Arch Therapeutics, Inc. (Arch) is a medical device company offering an innovative, elegant, and superior approach to the rapid cessation of bleeding (hemostasis*) and control of fluid leakage (sealant) during surgery and trauma care. The underlying technology, exclusively licensed from a leading university, supports an innovative platform of smart materials that fulfill the criteria as a solution for a specialized field we call, “stasis and barrier applications.”
Physicians, industry and patients could benefit greatly from a universal sealant for the challenges presented when an opening is created in the body, whether via surgery, trauma, colonoscopy biopsy, device implantation, or in a variety of consumer settings. The surgeon must manage and preferably prevent bleeding and leakage, as well as other challenges. Currently available tools designed to resolve these problems are often inadequate.
Arch intends to transform the landscape of interventional healthcare with products to seal and protect leaking and bleeding tissue. Arch’s solution elegantly controls the movement of these fluids and substances.
Arch’s products are currently progressing in preclinical development. The first product, AC5™, is designed to achieve hemostasis in minimally invasive (laparoscopic**) and open surgical procedures.

$ARTH BIO Products
Hemostatic Agent: AC5™ for control over surgical bleeding.
AC5™ - more than just a better mousetrap
The hemostasis market is clearly in search of products that work better, faster, and more reliably. AC5™ is designed to do that. Arch believes its products will be significantly superior to what is currently available.
AC5™ is a synthetic peptide comprising naturally occurring amino acids. Evidence to-date supports that it is biocompatible. When squirted or sprayed onto a wound, AC5™ promptly intercalates into the nooks and crannies of the connective tissue where it builds itself into a physical, mechanical structure. That structure provides a barrier to leaking substances, including blood and other bodily fluids, regardless of type of surgery or, based on early data, clotting ability. Healing occurs normally.
The structural building process is called self-assembly, and it provides a new and improved approach to addressing “stasis and barrier applications.”
