Item 8.01.  Other Events.


On July 1, 2011, Competitive Technologies, Inc. (“CTTC”) announced that the American Medical Association’s Editorial Panel for Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) has established a new Category III CPT® code to report procedures, such as treatment of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), involving CTTC's Calmare® pain therapy medical device, which features Scrambler Therapy technology.  The new CPT code is as follows:


0278T

Transcutaneous electrical modulation pain reprocessing (e.g, scrambler therapy), each treatment session (includes placement of electrodes).


The Calmare device has successfully treated CIPN and other neuropathic cancer pain in thousands of patients without any of the adverse side effects typically associated with the powerful opioid pain medications that are often used to treat pain in cancer patients. Calmare treatments have been especially effective in treating CIPN which is often resistant to drug therapies.


On July 1, 2011, CTTC issued the press release attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.


Item 9.01.  Financial Statements and Exhibits.


The following exhibits are attached hereto and hereby incorporated by this reference into this Current Report on Form 8-K:
