BioCardia Reports First Quarter 2024 Business Highlights and Financial Results

 

Sunnyvale, Calif. – May 14, 2024 - BioCardia, Inc. [Nasdaq: BCDA], a developer of cellular and cell-derived therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases, today reported financial results for the first quarter of 2024 and filed its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2024 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company will also hold a conference call at 4:30 PM ET today in which it will discuss business highlights. Following management’s formal remarks, there will be a question-and-answer session.

 

First Quarter 2024 Highlights

 

CardiAMP™ autologous cell therapy for patients with ischemic heart failure observation of 86% relative risk reduction in mortality in those with elevated NTproBNP presented at THT2024;

 

 

Confirmatory pivotal trial activated with CMS reimbursement intended to confirm these results;

 

 

CardiAMP autologous cell therapy for patients with refractory angina showed improved exercise tolerance and reduced chest pain in open label roll-in cohort;

 

 

CardiALLO™ allogenic cell therapy for patients with ischemic heart failure low dose cohort first results presented at THT2024;

 

 

StemCardia biotherapeutic delivery partnership established for Phase I/II development;

 

 

CellProthera biotherapeutic delivery partner Phase I/II results accepted for presentation; and

 

 

Operational cash burn of $1.5M.

 

“In 2024 we have had positive clinical results from all three of our autologous and allogeneic cell therapy product candidates for important cardiovascular indications.” said BioCardia CEO Peter Altman, Ph.D. “Our CardiAMP autologous cell therapy program in ischemic heart failure has shown a remarkable relative risk reduction in mortality for patients with active heart failure where established therapies have had minimal impact. Significant goals for 2024 include submitting this therapy for approval in Japan, advancing our two lead pivotal trials in the United States which are reimbursed by Medicare and major commercial insurance plans, and supporting our biotherapeutics delivery partnerships.”

 

RECENT BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS:

 

CardiAMP Autologous Cell Therapy for Patients with Ischemic Heart Failure (BCDA-01)

 

The CardiAMP Heart Failure Trial is an ongoing randomized, double-blinded, controlled clinical trial in the United States with 125 patients enrolled, including a 10-patient roll-in cohort. The interim results from this study, with 110 of the 115 randomized patients, were presented at the Technology and Heart Failure Therapeutics (THT) meeting on March 4, 2024. Over a mean 20 months of follow-up, patients with advanced chronic heart failure who received a single endomyocardial dose of autologous CardiAMP cell therapy had a 37% relative risk reduction in all-cause heart death equivalents and a 9% relative risk reduction in non-fatal incidence of heart attacks, strokes and hospitalization due to heart failure (MACCE). The subgroup analysis of patients with elevated NTproBNP at baseline – encompassing 59% of total enrolled randomized patients - demonstrated an 86% relative risk reduction in heart death equivalents and 24% relative risk reduction in MACCE as well as improvement in six-minute walk distance and improvement in quality of life. Final results are expected to be available in Q4 2024.

 

 

 

The CardiAMP Cell Therapy Heart Failure II Trial, as approved by the FDA, is intended to confirm these results. The study is a Phase III, multi-center, randomized, double blinded, sham-controlled study designed to include up to 250 patients with NTproBNP levels >500 pg/ml enrolled at up to 40 centers in the United States. The trial has greater than 90 percent power (statistical probability of success) to meet the primary endpoint based on the CardiAMP HF Trial interim results. This study was activated in the first quarter of 2024 with a goal of completing enrollment two years after the first patient is enrolled.

 

CardiAMP Autologous Cell Therapy for Patients with Chronic Myocardial Ischemia (BCDA-02)

 

The CardiAMP Cell Therapy Chronic Myocardial Ischemia Trial is a Phase III, multi-center, randomized, double-blinded, controlled study of up to 343 patients at up to forty clinical sites. Results from the recently completed open label roll-in cohort of patients having chronic myocardial ischemia with refractory angina showed an average 107 second increase in exercise tolerance and an 82% average reduction in angina episodes at the primary six-month follow-up endpoint compared to before receiving the study treatment.

 

CardiALLO Allogeneic Cell Therapy for Ischemic HFrEF (BCDA-03)

 

This trial includes a 3+3 roll-in dose escalation cohort followed by a 60-patient randomized double-blind controlled study. The cohort receiving the lowest dose of twenty million cells was initiated in December 2023. To date, no treatment-emergent adverse events, arrhythmias, rejection, or allergic response have been observed, consistent with our presentation at the Technology and Heart Failure Therapeutics meeting on March 4, 2024.

 

Biotherapeutic Delivery Partnerships

 

The Helix transendocardial biotherapeutic delivery system is a therapeutic-enabling platform for minimally invasive targeted delivery of biologic agents to the heart which we use in our own therapeutic programs. Our biotherapeutic delivery partnerships have potential to enhance future treatment options for millions of people suffering from heart disease, offset the costs of biotherapeutic delivery for our own programs, and participate in meaningful revenue sharing should our partnering efforts contribute to successful therapeutic development.

 

In March 2024, we announced a biotherapeutic delivery partnership with StemCardia through a Phase I/II Clinical Study. Under the partnership, BioCardia is the exclusive biotherapeutic delivery partner for StemCardia’s cell therapy candidate through studies expected to result in FDA approval of an investigational new drug application (IND) and the anticipated Phase I/II clinical development to follow.

 

In May 2024, our biotherapeutic delivery partner CellProthera announced their Excellent Phase 1/2b cell therapy study results in post-myocardial infarction are expected to be presented during the European Society of Cardiology Heart Failure Congress, May 14 to 16, 2024.

 

Morph® Access Innovations

 

Our planned Morph-DNA submission to the FDA for approval of a product family from 5 French to 8 French diameters is on track for submission in the second quarter of 2024 with an expected approval in the third quarter of 2024.
