Hemostemix Poised to Expand Phase-2 Clinical Trial of Lead Product ACP-01 to the United States
TORONTO, ONTARIO--( Dec 22, 2015) - Hemostemix Inc. ("Hemostemix" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:HEM), a clinical-stage autologous cell-therapy company, announced today the Company's progress in expanding the international, multicenter, phase-2 clinical trial of its lead product ACP-01 for critical limb ischemia (CLI) to the United States.
The ongoing phase-2 clinical trial investigates the safety and efficacy of ACP-01, which uses angiogenic progenitor cells to combat the life-threatening complications of CLI. These proprietary cells are grown from a patient's own blood and, once injected into his or her diseased tissue, are able to support the formation of new blood vessels. The clinical trial currently recruits patient at two sites in Canada and four sites in South Africa.
