## Exhibit 99.1

**Exhibit 99.1**

**Adagio Medical Receives IDE Approval from the FDA to Investigate Next-Generation vCLAS® Ventricular Ablation System**

***Designed to Deliver Faster, More Efficient Ablation with Improved Usability on Established, Titratable, Endocardial-Approach ULTA Platform***

**LAGUNA HILLS, CA, April 8, 2026** – Adagio Medical Holdings, Inc (Nasdaq: ADGM) ("Adagio" or "the Company"), a leading innovator in catheter ablation technologies for the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias, today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) approval to expand the Company's FULCRUM-VT trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Company's next-generation vCLAS Ultra-Low Temperature Ablation (ULTA) Ventricular Ablation System for the treatment of Sustained Monomorphic Ventricular Tachycardia (SMVT).

"Ventricular tachycardia remains one of the most difficult arrhythmias to treat, with current ablation approaches often limited by difficulty achieving sufficient lesion depth," said Dr. William Stevenson, M.D., Professor of Medicine, Principal Site Investigator, Vanderbilt University Medical Center. "We have been impressed with the safety and clinical results of the initial ULTA system for treating VT in patients with ischemic and nonischemic cardiomyopathies. We are looking forward to evaluating the next generation of the system, which we anticipate will have improved catheter maneuverability and allow shorter freeze times, both factors that should reduce procedure times."

The approval for IDE expansion enables Adagio to initiate a clinical sub-study designed to evaluate its next-generation vCLAS Ventricular Ablation System including the next generation vCLAS *Ultra* catheter, which has been built on the clinical foundation established by the Company's all-endocardial ULTA technology. Adagio's vCLAS *Ultra* catheter achieves ablation temperatures of approximately -170°C enabling highly efficient, single-freeze applications that have been shown to produce effective lesions with greater than 50% reduction in ablation time as demonstrated in pre-clinical models.

"The vCLAS *Ultra*, which was designed to improve energy delivery, navigation, lesion control, and overall procedural workflow efficiency, reflects tour teams' ability to expeditiously translate feedback from our physician partners into meaningful technological advancement. In parallel, the design incorporates improvements in manufacturability, supporting scalability and reducing overall system cost." said Alex Babkin, Chief Technology Officer of Adagio Medical. "Importantly, this advancement positions us to potentially offer the market a single, versatile catheter capable of treating the full range of VT substrates, all through an endocardial approach, with our clinically established ULTA platform technology. This IDE approval is an important step toward clinically validating what we believe could be a paradigm-shifting technological solution for VT."

The sub-study is a prospective, single-arm, multi-center, pre-market, clinical supplemental study designed to provide safety and efficacy data regarding the use of Adagio's next generation vCLAS Ventricular Ablation System in the treatment of scar-mediated SMVT in ischemic and non-ischemic patients, which is the same population treated in the pivotal phase of the IDE study. The IDE expansion approval is for a total of 55 proposed patients in a staged sub-study design.

"We are building on a strong and growing body of clinical evidence supporting the effectiveness of our ULTA technology, which has already demonstrated the ability to create deep, effective lesions through a fully endocardial approach," said Todd Usen, Chief Executive Officer of Adagio Medical. "IDE approval for this study expansion marks an important milestone as we continue to advance our vCLAS *Ultra* catheter, which we built to enable broader adoption across all electrophysiology practices. Our goal is to translate this proven technology into a highly scalable solution that can democratize the treatment of VT and become the go-to ablation catheter for treating the large, underserved population of patients who suffer from this disease. On behalf of the entire Adagio team, we would like to thank the FDA for their collaboration and partnership."
