Stuttgart, May 11, 2017 – Impulse Dynamics, developer of the revolutionary Cardiac Contractility Modulation (CCM) technology for treatment of Chronic Heart Failure (CHF), announced today that the company has closed a $45 million financing round.
The equity financing round was led by Goldstone Investment, a global investment company belonging to the Chinese conglomerate CITIC Securities, and included several other international investment firms. “We believe that CCM addresses a significant unmet need in the Chronic Heart Failure treatment paradigm,” said Mr. Ray Yang, Investment Vice President at Goldstone Investment. “We look forward to seeing Impulse realize its potential of helping millions of patients globally who currently cannot get symptom relief with existing device therapies.”
CCM is delivered by the implantable Optimizer device that administers 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 3,500 patients to date and is available for patients with narrow QRS complex.
“We are delighted to welcome Goldstone Investment as investors in the Company,” said Dr. Simos Kedikoglou, Chief Executive Officer of Impulse Dynamics. “This investment is a significant milestone for Impulse Dynamics, and will support our continued product development efforts and market expansion globally.”
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.
