BioCardia initiates patient enrollment at University of Wisconsin for study

BioCardia (BCDA) announced that University of Wisconsin in Madison, Wisconsin is now enrolling patients with ischemic HFrEF in the Company’s ongoing pivotal Phase 3 CardiAMP HF II trial. “In CardiAMP HF II, we aim to add to the evidence that this cell therapy can safely and significantly improve survival and quality of life for heart failure patients having elevated NTproBNP, a marker of heart stress, encompassing a large group of patients we see in daily practice,” said Dr. Amish Raval. “Importantly, this minimally invasive autologous approach has shown great results to date, avoids the need for immune suppression, and preserves all therapeutic options including heart transplant for patients.”
