- Micro Interventional Devices, Inc.™ formaliza una alianza estratégica con OSCOR, Inc.® y cierra una ronda de financiación de serie D

NEWTOWN, Pensilvania, 8 de marzo de 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- El presidente, director y consejero delegado de Micro Interventional Devices, Inc. (MID), Michael Whitman, y el presidente y consejero delegado de OSCOR, Inc. Thomas Osypka, se complacen en anunciar una alianza estratégica mediante la que se aprovecharán los puntos fuertes y las capacidades singulares de cada una de las empresas con objeto de seguir elaborando y comercializando soluciones innovadoras para tratar las cardiopatías estructurales y, en concreto, la tecnología MIA™ (anuloplastia mínimamente traumática), de MID.

MID proyecta, elabora y comercializa tecnologías percutáneas patentadas con las que se da respuesta a necesidades no satisfechas en el ámbito de las cardiopatías estructurales; OSCOR Inc., por su parte, que lleva más de 37 años sirviendo al sector de los productos sanitarios, concibe, elabora, fabrica y pone en el mercado una amplia gama de productos implantables de alta especialización destinados a neuromodulación, control del ritmo cardíaco y cardiopatías estructurales, así como sistemas y accesorios auxiliares de administración de fármacos. OSCOR ofrece a sus clientes su amplia cartera de propiedad intelectual con arreglo a un sistema de fabricación subcontratada o bajo marca de fabricante de equipos originales.

Con arreglo a las condiciones de este acuerdo, MID pasa a adquirir una licencia mundial no exclusiva que le permite acceder a la tecnología patentada de OSCOR en materia de catéteres y, a cambio, OSCOR recibe derechos exclusivos de fabricación sobre los aparatos MIA de MID. Esta sinergia permite acelerar el desarrollo corporativo de MID y le brinda acceso a una organización de apoyo de primera categoría que posee una red consolidada de registro sanitario y distribución.

En conjunción con esta alianza estratégica, MID se presta a cerrar una ronda de financiación de 20 millones de dólares de serie D encabezada por OSCOR, en la que también participan Originate Ventures, LLC; LifeSciences Greenhouse, de Pensilvania; Ben Franklin Venture Partners, del nordeste de Pensilvania, y otros accionistas de MID. Mediante esta transacción, la deuda de MID pasará a convertirse en acciones preferentes de serie D. Asimismo, el consejero delegado de OSCOR, Thomas Osypka, se dispone a sumarse al Consejo de Administración de Micro Interventional Devices a partir de marzo de 2019.

MID va a emplear lo recaudado en la finalización de su ensayo clínico STTAR, un estudio de reparación transcateteriana de anillos tricuspídeos en el que se analiza la toxicidad y la eficacia de MIA en el tratamiento percutáneo (menos traumático) de la insuficiencia tricuspídea y mitral, que se calcula que afecta a 12 millones de personas en todo el mundo. Hasta la fecha se han inscrito ya ocho pacientes en el ensayo STTAR, que va arrojando resultados prometedores.

"Nos llena de entusiasmo poder formalizar este acuerdo con OSCOR. Siguiendo las orientaciones de Thomas, OSCOR lleva más de veinte años concibiendo, elaborando y fabricando avanzadas tecnologías cateterianas", manifestó Michael Whitman. "Esta asociación con OSCOR va a permitirle a MID concluir de manera rápida y exhaustiva el expediente técnico, que constituye un requisito para obtener la autorización de uso del marcado CE. Asimismo, ahora gozamos de la posibilidad de incrementar la producción con objeto de dar servicio a esta amplia población de pacientes que en la actualidad no dispone de auténticas opciones terapéuticas".

Thomas Osypka añadió: "Nos complace asociarnos con MID en los temas referidos a esta importante tecnología de tratamiento mínimamente traumático de la insuficiencia tricuspídea y mitral. El núcleo de la filosofía de OSCOR radica en ayudar al sector a hallar y perfeccionar soluciones no agresivas que reduzcan la complejidad de los procedimientos por el bien de nuestros pacientes y facultativos, y entendemos esta operación como un encaje perfecto entre nuestras capacidades y el innovador enfoque que aplica MID en el tratamiento de las personas aquejadas de estas dolencias".

Acerca de Micro Interventional Devices, Inc. (MID):

MID es líder en reparación percutánea de los trastornos cardíacos estructurales. En la actualidad está llevando a cabo el ensayo clínico STTAR para estudiar en Europa su tecnología MIA™ (anuloplastia mínimamente traumática) de reparación tricuspídea.
