At Mirai Medical, we are passionate about developing technology that greatly improves cancer outcomes and enhances patient experiences.
Following intensive research and development, Mirai Medical was formed from a team with over 50 combined years of experience in the areas of pulsed electrical fields, electroporation for cancer, immunotherapy and medical device development to address critical unmet challenges in cancer treatment.
Our ePORE® technology is a unique precision therapy platform that targets tumour tissue whilst preserving surrounding healthy tissue structure. Proven to be a safe, simple and cost effective technique, it greatly reduces side effects and improves the experience of cancer patients. It is minimally invasive and allows for faster treatment delivered as a day-case procedure. Through the ideation, designing and manufacturing our technology, clinical evidence has guided everything we do. We believe that in doing this, safety and efficacy will be an intrinsic part of our technology’s promise for patients.
Our mission is for ePORE® therapy to be made available as a valuable tool for clinicians in the management of gastrointestinal and cutaneous solid tumours. We believe our technology offers tremendous potential to reduce side effects for patients while engaging a robust immune response against their cancer.

ePORE® therapy delivers pulsed electrical fields to tissue electroporating the cells and rendering the cell membrane porous for a period of time. Its innovative design allows for it to be utilised in a more patient friendly day case setting.
The technical features of the ePORE® allow for the safe and efficient creation of pulsed electrical fields with short duration electrical pulses. Mirai Medical has developed the CUTIS and EndoVE® probes for external (skin) and internal (endoscopic) tumour treatment. The EndoVE® probe is designed for attachment to a standard endoscope and then manoeuvred into position on the target tissue being treated. EndoVE® is designed for the safe delivery of electrical pulses to gastrointestinal tissue for the same principal of permeabilising the cell membrane. The CUTIS probe was created to treat external cancers, with design features that focus on patient and user safety, ease of use and ergonomics.
Our extensive R&D work has put the patient experience at the front and centre of our treatment platform. We are excited to work with clinicians on the utilisation of this important precision tool for patient treatment.
