CellAegis Devices, Inc. announces 1st Clinical Trial in EU

May 2, 2013

May 2, 2013: CellAegis Devices, Inc., announced today the first clinical trial program in the European Union to evaluate the use of the Company’s autoRIC™ Device for Chronic Remote Ischemic Conditioning (CRIC). In the DREAM study (Daily REmote Ischemic Conditioning following Acute Myocardial INfarction), a University of Leicester-sponsored Phase II, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical study, CRIC will be evaluated for its ability to prevent negative remodeling of the heart in patients following an acute myocardial infarction. A quarter of patients suffering a heart attack show symptoms of heart failure at the time of admission, and CRIC has the potential to interrupt this disease process.
