Revolutionizing the way we treat heart failure. Heart failure kills more people globally than any other ailment, yet there is no ultimate treatment for the condition. Our goal is to develop and commercialize an effective and reasonably-priced therapy for heart failure using a specific fibroblast cell we call “VCF,” that we obtain from the patient’s own heart. Our approach to heart failure therapy is quite different from other technologies in the sense that we do not want to replace what is “broken,” but rather we want to repair the damage by enhancing the cells’ own ability to heal.
