KIRKLAND, Wash., Nov. 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Kestra Medical Technologies, Ltd. (Nasdaq: KMTS), a wearable medical device and digital healthcare company, today announced primary results from the ASSURE® WCD Clinical Evaluation Post-Approval Study (ACE-PAS), presented as a late-breaking science session at the American Heart Association (AHA) Scientific Sessions 2025 in New Orleans. ACE-PAS, the largest prospective real-world study of wearable defibrillators to date, confirmed the strong safety and effectiveness of the ASSURE WCD in clinical practice. “ACE-PAS delivers robust, real-world evidence on how the ASSURE WCD performs in routine care and provides contemporary data describing the risk of life-threatening ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation in diverse populations with reduced cardiac function,” said Jeanne E. Poole, MD, Professor of Medicine at the University of Washington and Principal Investigator. “Life-threatening arrhythmias can occur early in patients with low ejection fraction who have recently experienced a myocardial infarction, undergone coronary revascularization, or have been newly diagnosed with heart failure. These patients may have significant recovery of heart function during a waiting period of one to six months, such that a permanently implanted defibrillator is not indicated. The ASSURE WCD should be considered to protect patients at elevated risk of sudden cardiac death during this vulnerable time.” The study enrolled 21,612 patients across the United States. Key findings demonstrate consistent safety, effectiveness, and compliance in real-world use: Proven effectiveness The primary effectiveness endpoint was achieved, with 100% successful conversion for ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation (VT/VF) events, surpassing the prespecified performance goal. Validated safety The study met its primary safety endpoint, with an inappropriate-shock rate of 0.0065 per patient-month, below the prespecified performance goal and confirming a strong safety profile. Minimal false alarms 94% of patients experienced no false positive shock alarms, ensuring confidence and comfort during wear. Critical protection 2.6% of patients experienced at least one life-threatening VT/VF event within only a few months, highlighting the importance of protection in this vulnerable population. Additional clinically relevant arrhythmias revealed The ASSURE system facilitated detection of high-rate atrial fibrillation in 4.2% of patients (35% previously undiagnosed) and severe bradycardia/asystole in 0.3%, enabling the potential of timely intervention. High compliance Patients wore the device for a median of more than 23 hours per day, and one-third continued use beyond 90 days—highlighting its practicality in real-world, long-term care. “These results reinforce the critical role wearable device monitoring and therapy can play in protecting patients during periods of elevated risk,” said Brian Webster, President and Chief Executive Officer of Kestra Medical Technologies. “As the largest and most contemporary study of its kind, ACE-PAS provides compelling evidence that may help inform future updates to clinical practice—particularly around how physicians identify and protect patients at early risk of sudden cardiac death. By pairing proven performance with connected, data-driven insight, Kestra is redefining what’s possible in wearable protection and advancing evidence-based innovation.” The ACE-PAS results represent a significant step forward in understanding and managing sudden cardiac arrest risk. Additional analyses from the study will be shared in forthcoming scientific forums. A recorded panel discussion featuring ACE-PAS investigators and other leading clinical experts, hosted by MedAxiom, offers further perspective on the study’s design, outcomes, and implications for patient care.

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Nov. 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BioCardia, Inc. [NASDAQ: BCDA], a global leader in cellular and cell-derived therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases, today announced the first patient enrolled at Henry Ford Health in its ongoing Phase 3 CardiAMP® HF II clinical trial for patients with ischemic heart failure of reduced ejection fraction (“HFrEF”). “The CardiAMP-HF trial, in which Henry Ford Health participated, was groundbreaking for the field of heart failure. Although the primary endpoint was not met, the study showed impressive results with an autologous cell therapy in patients with HFrEF, particularly those with elevated biomarkers of heart stress,” said Dr. Gerald Koenig, M.D., Director of the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory at Henry Ford West Bloomfield Hospital and Director of Clinical Research in the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory at Henry Ford Health System, and Principal Investigator in the Phase 3 CardiAMP HF II trial. “Our team is actively offering patients the opportunity to participate in this important confirmatory study intended to enhance microvascular function and improve patient outcomes, including quality of life.” “We greatly value our collaboration with Dr. Koenig and the world class Henry Ford Health team in the CardiAMP HF II Trial,” said Peter Altman, PhD, CEO of BioCardia. “Between the U.S. and the EU, there are roughly 2 million ischemic HFrEF patients with NYHA Class II and III symptoms. Many of these patients have a prognosis worse than many cancers and few remaining options. This places a terrible burden on patients, their families, and the healthcare system. We are excited by the CardiAMP HF results showing that our cell therapy system reduced both mortality and major adverse cardiac events, improved quality of life, and showed positive impacts to other study endpoints in patients with HFrEF. These results suggest that our investigational cell therapy could address important clinical needs.” About the CardiAMP Heart Failure II Study CardiAMP HF II is a 250-patient randomized multicenter procedure placebo-controlled study of the CardiAMP autologous cell therapy as a one-time treatment for patients with ischemic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) on guideline directed medical therapy having elevated NTproBNP. The study is intended to confirm the safety and efficacy results in these patients observed in the CardiAMP HF study. The CardiAMP HF II study uses a similar three-tier composite primary outcome measure to the CardiAMP HF study consisting of all cause death, nonfatal major adverse cardiac events, and a validated quality of life measure. In CardiAMP HF, this composite efficacy endpoint was achieved with statistical significance in the patients with elevated NTproBNP who are the focus of the CardiAMP HF II study. Advances in this therapeutic approach for this trial include using the cell population analysis at screening to define treatment doses and improvements to the Helix system including the FDA approved Morph DNA steerable platform.

CASGEVY is approved in the U.S., Great Britain, the EU, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), the Kingdom of Bahrain (Bahrain), Qatar, Canada, Switzerland and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) for the treatment of both SCD and TDT. Across these markets, there are more than 60,000 eligible patients in these countries, including approximately 37,000 in North America and Europe and more than 23,000 in the Middle East. With a well-established treatment pathway and a growing number of patients progressing through each stage, CASGEVY has strong momentum heading into late 2025 and beyond. In September, a reimbursement agreement was reached in Italy for patients with SCD and TDT. Italy represents the largest population of individuals with TDT in Europe, with approximately 5,000 people aged 12 years and older with TDT and approximately 2,300 with SCD.Globally, since launch through September 30th, 2025, approximately 165 patients with SCD or TDT have completed their first cell collection, including 50 people in the third quarter. 39 patients have received infusions of CASGEVY, including 10 infused in the third quarter of 2025. Nearly 300 patients have been referred by their physicians to an authorized treatment center (ATC) to begin the treatment process. This includes 110 cell collections in the first nine months of 2025, double the total for all of 2024. Enrollment of children 5 to 11 years of age with SCD or TDT in two global Phase 3 studies of CASGEVY has been completed, and dosing is expected to be completed this quarter. Initial data from these studies will be presented at the American Society of Hematology (ASH) annual meeting on December 6th, 2025.The number of ATCs initiating patients continues to increase in the U.S., Europe, and the Middle East. Through the end of September, 25 ATCs had initiated more than 5 patients, with at least one ATC in each region initiating 20 or more patients.Momentum continues to build through the final months of 2025. With continued uptake and reimbursement progress across major regions, Vertex expects a clear line of sight to over $100 million in total CASGEVY revenue this year with significant growth expected in 2026. In Vivo Liver Editing CRISPR Therapeutics is advancing a pipeline of in vivo gene editing candidates addressing major unmet needs in cardiovascular, metabolic and rare diseases using its proprietary, de-risked lipid nanoparticle (LNP) delivery platform.CTX310®, targeting ANGPTL3, is in an ongoing Phase 1 clinical trial in patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH), severe hypertriglyceridemia (SHTG), heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH), or mixed dyslipidemias. Phase 1 data were presented in a late-breaking session at the American Heart Association (AHA) Scientific Sessions and published simultaneously in The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM). Results from the Phase 1 clinical trial highlight the potential of CTX310 to safely and durably lower both triglycerides (TG) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) following a single-course IV administration. CRISPR Therapeutics is advancing CTX310 into Phase 1b clinical trials, prioritizing development in sHTG and mixed dyslipidemia.CTX320™ is in an ongoing Phase 1 clinical trial targeting the LPA gene in patients with elevated lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], a genetically determined risk factor associated with an increased incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). Elevated Lp(a) levels affect up to 20% of the global population and remain unaddressed by current therapies. The Company plans to provide an update in the first half of 2026.CRISPR Therapeutics continues to advance its preclinical in vivo programs: CTX460™, targeting SERPINA1 for the treatment of alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD); CTX340™, targeting AGT for the treatment of refractory hypertension; and CTX450™, targeting ALAS1 for the treatment of acute hepatic porphyria (AHP). CTX460 is the first investigational candidate using the Company’s novel SyNTase editing platform, unveiled in October. SyNTase is designed to enable precise, in vivo gene correction, and represents an important expansion of CRISPR Therapeutics’ toolkit. Preclinical data presented at the European Society of Gene and Cell Therapy (ESGCT) Annual Congress demonstrated >90% mRNA correction, a 5-fold increase in total AAT levels, and >99% serum M-AAT:Z-AAT ratio in AATD disease models. These findings provide preclinical proof-of-concept for precise, single-dose in vivo gene correction using the SyNTase editing platform and support the potential best-in-class profile of CTX460. CRISPR Therapeutics expects to initiate a clinical trial of CTX460 in mid-2026.Preclinical data from CTX340 were presented in a late-breaking poster presentation at the American Heart Association (AHA) Scientific Sessions. In a spontaneous hypertensive rat model, CTX340 showed >70% liver editing and mean arterial pressure reduction of 53 mmHg compared to vehicle that was durable throughout the study (~8.5 months). Furthermore, in non-human primates, CTX340 showed greater than 90% AGT reduction with a two-dose regimen showing the additive effects of repeat dosing and enabling dose titration. CTX340 was well tolerated with no hypotension or hypokalemia observed. CTX340 is currently in IND/CTA-enabling studies. Autoimmune Disease and Immuno-Oncology CTX112™, targeting CD19, is being developed for autoimmune disease and hematologic malignancies and has received Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT) designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma and marginal zone lymphoma. A Phase 1 clinical trial in autoimmune disease is underway in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), systemic sclerosis and inflammatory myositis. In parallel, a Phase 1 clinical trial of CTX112 in relapsed or refractory B-cell malignancies is ongoing. The Company plans to provide a broad update on CTX112 by year-end. CTX131™, targeting CD70, was previously in development for both solid tumors and hematologic malignancies. While the Phase 1 data are encouraging, the Company has strategically redirected resources away from this program to advance other programs with the greatest potential for long-term value creation.CRISPR Therapeutics is leveraging its expertise and proprietary lipid nanoparticle (LNP) delivery platform, mRNA, and conjugation capabilities to advance an in vivo CAR T platform with the ability to address autoimmune disease and oncology.CRISPR Therapeutics’ autoimmune disease and immuno-oncology programs are supported by a wholly-owned, GMP manufacturing facility located in Framingham, Massachusetts, which provides end-to-end production capabilities for its cell therapy portfolio and supports both clinical and future commercial supply. siRNA In September, CRISPR Therapeutics and its partner Sirius Therapeutics announced that the first patient was dosed in Europe in the Phase 2 clinical trial of SRSD107, a long-acting Factor XI (FXI) small interfering RNA (siRNA) for thromboembolic disorders. The trial is evaluating the safety and efficacy of SRSD107 in preventing venous thromboembolism (VTE) following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and will inform dose selection for future pivotal trials. SRSD107 has the potential to be a best-in-class FXI inhibitor, showing deep reductions in FXI via semi-annual subcutaneous injection. SRSD107 is being co-developed by CRISPR Therapeutics and Sirius Therapeutics as part of a broader strategic collaboration to advance RNA-based medicines.CRISPR Therapeutics and Sirius Therapeutics have expanded the Phase 2 clinical trial with additional centers in Europe. SRSD107 is being developed for a range of thromboembolic and clotting-related indications, including arterial fibrillation (AF), cancer-associated thrombosis (CAT), chronic kidney disease (CKD), peripheral vascular disease (PVD), chronic coronary artery disease (CAD), ischemic stroke and VTE. Regenerative Medicine CRISPR Therapeutics continues to advance its regenerative medicine efforts for Type 1 diabetes (T1D). Beyond CTX211™, the Company is developing next-generation programs that leverage induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) derived, allogeneic, gene-edited, beta islet cell precursors. These approaches aim to achieve insulin independence in T1D patients without requiring chronic immunosuppression. The Company expects to provide an update this year.
