Independent Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) recommends that the study proceeds as designed based on 30-day data safety assessment of participants treated in low dosage group. The company plans to progress the trial to enrollment of 39 participants in the United States. SUNNYVALE, Calif., April 15, 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 that the study’s independent DSMB, which conducted a planned review of the 30-day safety data from the roll-in 20 million cell dosing cohort in the CardiALLO-HF trial, recommended that the study continue as designed. There have been no treatment emergent major adverse cardiac events observed nor has there been any clinical evidence of immune reactions to the allogeneic cells implanted. “We are pleased with the DSMB’s recommendation, an important step forward in advancing this allogeneic off the shelf mesenchymal stromal/stem cell therapy,” said Peter Altman, BioCardia Chief Executive Officer. “Today’s result has potential to be helpful with ongoing discussions around nondilutive funding and partnering opportunities for our MSC platform. Success in this trial can enable future pivotal trial design and funding in the USA, conditional time limited approval with reimbursement in Japan, as well as the advancement of CardiALLO MSC therapy for the likely orphan indications of pediatric and adult congenital heart disease.” Previous clinical results of MSC in ischemic heart failure from our co-sponsored TRIDENT trial1 demonstrated that higher MSC cell dosages reduced myocardial scar and increased left ventricular ejection fraction, and peer results2 have indicated that patients with active inflammation have sustained reduction in cardiovascular major morbidity. CardiALLO HF at high dosage is anticipated to have at least twice the effective dosage of these previous studies and will be the first trial to target patients with active inflammation.   About CardiALLO HFThe CardiALLO Heart Failure Trial is a Phase I/II study with an open label Phase I nine-patient dose escalation cohort, followed by a thirty-patient randomized double-blinded placebo procedure-controlled cohort, intended to develop support for safety and efficacy of this treatment.

CardiAMP HF II is Evaluating the CardiAMP™ Cell Therapy Product for Treating Patients with Ischemic Heart Failure of Reduced Ejection Fraction and Elevated Markers of Cardiac Stress Dr. Arshed Quyyumi, Professor of Medicine, Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine, Emory University School of Medicine, and Co-Director of the Emory Clinical Cardiovascular Research Institute to Serve as Principal Investigator SUNNYVALE, Calif., April 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BioCardia, Inc. [Nasdaq: BCDA], a global leader in cellular and cell-derived therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases, announced today that Emory University School of Medicine in Atlanta Georgia is now enrolling patients with ischemic heart failure in the Company’s ongoing pivotal Phase III CardiAMP HF II trial. Emory University joins esteemed clinical sites throughout the United States participating in the study. The CardiAMP HF II Study is evaluating the Company’s lead therapeutic product candidate, a system designed for the harvest, processing, and minimally invasive delivery of autologous mononuclear cells to the heart intended to enhance microvascular density and reduce fibrosis. The study is comparing treatment with CardiAMP Therapy to a placebo procedure with all patients on stable guideline directed medical therapy.   “The CardiAMP cell therapy has shown compelling benefits for the treated patients in the trial results recently presented at the American College of Cardiology Scientific Sessions,” said Dr. Arshed Quyyumi, MD, Professor of Medicine, Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine, Emory University School of Medicine, and Co-Director Emory Clinical Cardiovascular Research Institute. “The screening for CD34+ cell composition and high dosage being delivered in a interventional cardiology setting is in alignment with our own past research and enhances both my confidence in the results recently presented and the potential for treated patients to do well in the study ahead. Our team at Emory is looking forward to offering patients with heart failure the opportunity to participate in this minimally invasive autologous cell therapy trial.” “Dr. Quyyumi’s significant expertise in these trials and inspiring leadership, coupled with the world-class capabilities at Emory University School of Medicine, a leading institution in the development of the field of interventional cardiology in the United States, is a great addition to the CardiAMP-HF II trial,” said Peter Altman, PhD, President and CEO of BioCardia. “We believe this collaboration will assist the Company on many levels, including their anticipated strong support in accelerating patient enrollment in the CardiAMP HF II trial towards its target completion in 2027.” About Chronic Heart Failure of Reduced Ejection Fraction (HFrEF) Heart failure of reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is a clinical condition in which the output of blood from the heart is insufficient to meet the metabolic demands of the body. In 2022, the American Heart Association report on heart disease statistics estimated that 3 million American adults ages 20 and older have heart failure of reduced ejection fraction with a prevalence expected to increase to more than 4 million people by 2030. During heart failure progression, the heart steadily loses its ability to respond to increased metabolic demand, and mild exercise soon exceeds the heart’s ability to maintain adequate output. Towards the end stage of the disease, the heart cannot pump enough blood to meet the body’s needs at rest. At this stage, fluids accumulate in the extremities or in the lungs making the patient bedridden and unable to perform the activities of daily living. Despite guideline-directed therapies employing a wide range of pharmacologic, device, and surgical options, many patients deteriorate over time and develop advanced heart failure symptoms that cannot be effectively managed by existing medical therapies. About CardiAMP Cell Therapy Granted Breakthrough Designation by the FDA, the CardiAMP Cell Therapy uses a patient’s own bone marrow cells delivered to the heart in a minimally invasive, catheter-based procedure to potentially stimulate the body’s natural healing response. CardiAMP Cell Therapy incorporates three proprietary elements not previously utilized in investigational cardiac cell therapy: a pre-procedural cell analysis for patient selection, a high target dosage of cells, and a proprietary delivery system that has been shown to be safer than other intramyocardial delivery systems and exponentially more successful in cell retention. Clinical development to date in randomized controlled double blinded trials has shown trends towards enhanced patient survival, reduced major adverse cardiac events, and improved quality of life. The CardiAMP clinical development for heart failure is supported by the Maryland Stem Cell Research Fund and is reimbursed by Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) for both treatment and control procedures. CAUTION – Limited by United States law to investigational use.  About CardiAMP Heart Failure Clinical Development Final study results from the randomized double blinded controlled one hundred and twenty-five subjects CardiAMP Heart Failure Study were presented at the American College of Cardiology in March 2025. Results demonstrated increased survival and reduced major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) observed study-wide. Statistically significant improvement in composite outcome measure comprised of survival, MACCE, and quality of life seen in patients suffering from active heart stress (those with elevated NTproBNP and BNP biomarkers) treated with CardiAMP Cell Therapy (p=0.02). CardiAMP HF II will focus on these patient responders. BioCardia’s clinical and regulatory team is actively working to share final results with both the FDA and Japan’s Pharmaceutical and Medical Device Agency in support of approval of the CardiAMP Cell Therapy for these patients with elevated NTproBNP, for whom existing medications may not be sufficient, and also in support of separate approval for the Helix transendocardial biotherapeutic delivery system, whose approval will have value for many biotherapeutic delivery partners.

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Feb. 27, 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 completion of source data verification and freezing of primary outcomes data in the double-blind randomized placebo-controlled Phase 3 CardiAMP HF study of its autologous minimally invasive cell therapy for the treatment of ischemic heart failure of reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Data from the 115 randomized patients in the study has been transferred to the Statistical Data Analysis Center core laboratory for analysis. Results are scheduled to be presented at the Late-Breaking Clinical Trials symposium at the American College of Cardiology (ACC) 2025 Scientific Sessions in Chicago on March 30, 2025.  We believe this data represents the largest ischemic HFrEF patient cohort studied in a randomized trial of an autologous cell therapy, and the first to use a precision medicine approach to identify patients likely to respond to therapy based on the nature of their cells. Should the results presented at ACC confirm the interim analysis, the trial will provide evidence of meaningful therapeutic benefit of this cell therapy for HFrEF patients insufficiently responsive to medication as characterized by elevated NT-proBNP.    “This clinical study is intended to provide evidence supporting the safety and effectiveness of our CardiAMP cell therapy system for future approvals in the United States and Japan,” said Peter Altman, PhD, BioCardia President and CEO. “The results are also expected to support the safety and effectiveness of the Helix biotherapeutic delivery system for standalone approval for the intramyocardial delivery of agents to the heart.” About CardiAMP Autologous Cell Therapy Granted FDA Breakthrough designation, CardiAMP Cell Therapy uses a patient’s own marrow cells delivered to the heart in a minimally invasive, catheter-based procedure to potentially stimulate the body’s natural healing response to increase capillary density, reduce tissue fibrosis, and ultimately treat microvascular dysfunction. The mechanisms that lead to microvascular dysfunction, including fibrotic, inflammatory, apoptotic, and endothelial autonomic dysfunction, are all targets of CardiAMP cell therapy, largely through production of growth factors, cytokines, chemokines, and other factors that directly counteract each of these mechanisms. The CardiAMP clinical development for heart failure is supported by the Maryland Stem Cell Research Fund and is reimbursed by Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).  CAUTION – Limited by United States law to investigational use.  About BioCardia BioCardia, Inc., headquartered in Sunnyvale, California, is a global leader in cellular and cell-derived therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular and pulmonary disease.

Focus on Patients with Elevated Markers of Heart Stress and Inflammation Procedural enhancement using FDA Approved Morph DNA steerable guide for therapeutic delivery SUNNYVALE, Calif., Feb. 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BioCardia, Inc. [Nasdaq: BCDA], a global leader in cellular and cell-derived therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases, announced today completion of enrollment and dosing in the low dose cohort in its CardiALLO™ Allogeneic Mesenchymal Cell Therapy Phase I/II trial. The trial is designed to treat patients with ischemic heart failure of reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and is believed to be the world’s first prospective trial of allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) intended for treating HFrEF patients having elevated markers of heart stress and systemic inflammation. “This novel investigational cell therapy has great potential to help these patients, who suffer from significant lifestyle limitations despite receiving guideline directed medical therapy,” said Carl Pepine, M.D., Professor of Medicine at the University of Florida Division of Cardiovascular Medicine at Gainesville, and National Principal Investigator for the study. “The higher dosing and precision medicine for patients most likely to be responsive to this novel allogeneic therapy are very promising enhancements.” “The treatment procedures have gone well, and we look forward to the first independent safety review,” said R. David Anderson, M.D., Professor of Medicine in the University of Florida Division of Cardiovascular Medicine and the Director of Interventional Cardiology and Cardiac Catheterization, and Principal Investigator for the study at the University of Florida at Gainesville. “As part of this therapy, we are utilizing the Morph DNA guide to navigate, enhancing physician control for cell delivery. Based on experience to date in this study, it is a compelling product improvement.” The CardiALLO Heart Failure Trial is a Phase I/II study with an open label Phase I nine-patient dose escalation cohort, followed by a thirty-patient randomized double-blinded placebo procedure-controlled cohort, intended to develop support for safety and efficacy of this treatment. For Phase I, three patients are to be treated at one of three escalating doses of 20 million cells, 100 million cells, and 200 million cells, using BioCardia’s minimally invasive delivery system which enters the heart through a blood vessel. A two-week waiting period between each dose cohort is built into the study design with a formal Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) review following each dose. These proprietary CardiALLO human cells and their dedicated proprietary catheter delivery system are manufactured at BioCardia’s facility in Sunnyvale, California. The first DSMB review is expected to take place in March 2025. The “off the shelf” mesenchymal stem cells utilized for the study treatment are believed to act by providing immunomodulatory benefits in inflammatory disease mediated heart failure as well as microvascular repair promoting enhanced capillary density and reduced fibrosis. This program follows two previous clinical trials of allogeneic MSC delivered intramyocardially for patients with ischemic heart failure sponsored by BioCardia1,2. These completed trials provide evidence for safety and trends of efficacy for these allogeneic cells which have not required immunosuppression or produced arrhythmias. “We have confidence in the CardiALLO MSC program whose current study is intended to position this therapy for pivotal clinical studies in the United States and conditional time limited approval in Japan,” said Peter Altman, PhD, BioCardia President and CEO. “Our enhanced manufacturing of these MSC is expected to be commercially scalable. The CardiALLO MSC development is synergistic to our autologous CardiAMP mononuclear cell therapy development, which has shown great promise and has potential to be many years closer to market, particularly if the upcoming data to be presented at the American College of Cardiology meeting in March confirms the interim results.” BioCardia’s allogeneic MSC manufacturing for the CardiALLO MSC program is able to support partnering for its PulmAllo™ MSC acute respiratory distress IND3, an indication where a conditional approval in Japan is expected for MSC4, as well as other preclinical and clinical indications where partners may have interest. A first MSC therapy was recently approved in the United States5. 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.
