Trophos to lead new MitoCare consortium awarded EUR 6 million by EU for POC study of novel cardioprotective compound, TRO40303
Program of translational research to study innovative approaches to reducing cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury
“We are proud the European Union, after extensive expert evaluation, has chosen to support the MitoCare project and Trophos is very pleased to be collaborating with a distinguished panel of clinical, academic and SME partners,” said Damian Marron, Trophos’ CEO. “There are around 1.6 million cardiac reperfusion procedures performed in hospitals and specialist clinics each year in the western world alone. This program fits perfectly with Trophos’ strategy of creating value by targeting niche, high medical need markets. Cardiac reperfusion injury is a significant unmet medical need with no existing treatment that contributes to long-term morbidity, progression to heart failure and death following a MI.”
