Mt. Laurel, New Jersey, May 13 2016 – Impulse Dynamics, developer of the Optimizer™ IVs implantable device for treatment of chronic heart failure (CHF), announced today that the company has closed a $30 million financing round.
The equity financing round was led by the investment fund of Dr. Peter Lee Ka Kit, Vice Chairman of Henderson Land Development Company Limited, a leading Hong Kong-based property developer. “There is a significant need for a device-based technology that can offer symptom relief to heart failure patients who no longer respond to optimal medical therapy,” said Dr. Peter Lee Ka Kit, who has also made numerous charitable donations supporting initiatives to help heart disease patients in China. “The Optimizer device is a unique technology that addresses this unmet need. We look forward to supporting Impulse in its commercial and clinical efforts globally and specifically in the Chinese market.”
The Optimizer device is based on Impulse Dynamics’ novel Cardiac Contractility Modulation (CCM) technology and delivers non-excitatory electric pulses to the heart muscle, initiating multiple biochemical and neurohormonal changes to the myocardium. As a result, the contractility of the myocardium increases with no concomitant increase in oxygen consumption, enabling the heart to work more efficiently. It has already been successfully launched in Europe and is available in cardiology centers in a number of countries. CCM therapy has been implanted in over 3,000 patients to date and is the only device therapy available for patients with narrow QRS complex.
“We are excited to welcome Dr. Peter Lee Ka Kit as an investor in Impulse Dynamics. It is a reaffirmation of the value of CCM therapy for patients and healthcare systems globally,” said Dr. Simos Kedikoglou, Chief Executive Officer of Impulse Dynamics. “CCM is a well-established technology that meets a major need. Our lead investor in this round will play a crucial role in making CCM technology more widely available to heart failure patients especially in China.”
Proceeds from the financing will support Impulse Dynamics’ continued global commercial expansion, as well as clinical and product development.
About the Optimizer® and CCM® Therapy
The Optimizer Smart system delivers CCM therapy — the company’s proprietary technology — to the heart. CCM therapy has been designed by Impulse Dynamics to significantly improve the heart’s contraction, allowing more oxygen-rich blood to be pushed out through the body. CCM therapy is indicated to improve the 6-minute hall walk, quality of life, and functional status of NYHA Class III heart failure patients who remain symptomatic despite guideline-directed medical therapy, are not indicated for CRT, and have a left ventricular ejection fraction ranging from 25 to 45 percent.
CCM is the brand name for cardiac contractility modulation — the non-excitatory electrical pulses delivered by the implantable Optimizer device to improve heart contraction. CCM therapy sends unique electrical pulses to the heart cells during the absolute refractory period. In doing so, CCM helps the heart contract more forcibly. Impulse Dynamics has completed numerous clinical studies, including several randomized controlled trials, and CCM therapy has been published in more than 120 peer-reviewed journal articles.
About Impulse Dynamics
Impulse Dynamics is dedicated to advancing the treatment of heart failure for patients and the healthcare providers who care for them. The company pioneered its proprietary CCM therapy, which uses the Optimizer platform to improve quality of life in heart failure patients. CCM therapy is delivered through the Optimizer system, which includes an IPG implanted in a minimally invasive procedure and approved for commercial use in the United States and 44 countries worldwide. CCM therapy has proven safe and effective for heart failure patients with debilitating symptoms who otherwise have few effective options available to them.
