BioCardia and StemCardia Announce Biotherapeutic Delivery Partnership - Seite 2

About StemCardia

StemCardia, Inc., is developing cell and gene therapies engineered to repair the heart. The company’s mission is to advance off-the-shelf treatments for heart failure, bringing together leading experts in heart regeneration, cell manufacturing, and genetic medicine. Few treatments are available today, and none are curative. Inspired by the observation that the heart does not regenerate itself, our unique approach is to manufacture and transplant cardiac muscle cells to directly re-muscularize the failing heart and restore its function.

About BioCardia

BioCardia, Inc., headquartered in Sunnyvale, California, is developing cellular and cell-derived therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular and pulmonary disease. CardiAMP autologous and CardiALLO allogeneic cell therapies are the Company’s biotherapeutic platforms for the treatment of heart disease. BioCardia also works with partners to provide its proprietary Helix transendocardial biotherapeutic delivery system, as well as technology and services for the development and commercialization of partners’ therapeutic agents.

About Helix

The Helix transendocardial biotherapeutic delivery system is a therapeutic-enabling platform for minimally invasive targeted delivery of biologic agents to the heart. Helix empowers a seamless transition from bench to commercialization for partners.
