Such protocol was modified to reflect FDA remarks and discussions with the Company during a Pre-Submission meeting which took place in October 2015.

About GlucoTrack®
GlucoTrack® is a non-invasive device for measuring glucose levels of people with Type 2 diabetes or at risk of developing diabetes that does not require pricking of the fingers to draw blood for daily glucose monitoring. GlucoTrack® features a small sensor that clips to the earlobe and measures the wearer's glucose level by taking measurements using three technologies. The measured signals are analyzed using a proprietary algorithm and displayed on a small handheld device the size of a mobile phone. The derived glucose measurement is also announced verbally, facilitating use by elderly and vision-impaired diabetes patients.
The GlucoTrack® Model DF-F is expected to begin clinical trials for United States FDA approval in 2016, subject to approval of Integrity Applications' clinical trial protocol by the FDA. The product is experimental in the United States and is limited to investigational use.
GlucoTrack® Model DF-F obtained a CE Mark approval in Europe (June 2013) and final CE Mark approval in March 2014 and recently received approval to market the device also to pre-diabetics.
