  • Inclusion of all 220 (110 + 110) patients is now completed in the NOVEL study which is being carried out in the US on STEEN Solution™ and XPS™. This clinical study will form the basis of the company’s PMA (Pre-market Approval) application to the FDA.

  • The first clinical heart transplant using the heart preservation technology developed by XVIVO´s partner Professor Stig Steen was performed during the quarter. His research has resulted in a heart preservation technology that makes it possible to transport and store the donor heart in a more optimized way than before. Earlier animal experiments have shown that the method has the potential to extend the time that the heart is stored outside the body (Ex Vivo).
