CEO comment
“The first quarter of the year was positive in several respects. Sales of machine perfusion in Thoracic totaled SEK 21 million, an increase of 45 percent year-on-year. In the US, the AOPO (the Association of Organ Procurement Organizations) presented a new groundbreaking target of increasing the number of transplants by 50 percent in the period until 2026, which creates important business opportunities for XVIVO. The main highlight in the first quarter was an article in the New England Journal of Medicine in February which emphasized the significant advantages of oxygenated perfusion of liver before transplantation.”
