Also debuts TMR'09 campaign IRVINE, Calif., Oct. 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Cardiogenesis Corporation (Pink Sheets: CGCP), a global leader of innovative therapies for ischemic cardiac disease and the market leader of surgical products for transmyocardial revascularization (TMR), sponsored an educational symposium yesterday in conjunction with the 20th Annual Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics (TCT) meeting in Washington, D.C. The symposium, titled "New Horizons in Cardiac Regenerative Medicine: Advancements in Revascularization & Stem Cell Therapy," was attended by over 120 cardiology healthcare practitioners. The Program Chair was Warren Sherman, MD, Director of Cardiac Cell Based Endovascular Therapies, Center for Interventional Vascular Therapy, New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University Medical Center. Presenters included: Emerson Perin, MD, PhD, Director, New Interventional Cardiovascular Technology, Texas Heart Institute; Marvin Slepian, MD, Director of Interventional Cardiology, University of Arizona, Sarver Heart Center; and Keith Allen, Cardiothoracic Surgeon, Mid America Heart and Thoracic surgeons, Kansas City, MO. "The program was designed to provide an update to clinicians on the recent developments with advanced cardiovascular revascularization and regenerative therapies, with a focus on patients suffering from ischemic cardiac disease," Dr. Sherman stated. "TCT attendees are eager to learn about rapidly evolving therapies, as well as the latest information on optimizing outcomes with available tools and techniques, including TMR as a sole therapy and adjunctive to bypass surgery." Dr. Allen emphasized to the cardiologists in attendance, "Surgeons are innovating with Cardiogenesis to provide TMR with minimally invasive approaches, including surgical robotic delivery." He also discussed the early clinical experience with the PHOENIX combination delivery system being collected from centers outside the U.S. As a leading clinical investigator of autologous stem cell trials, Dr. Perin provided a state of the art overview of cardiovascular stem cell clinical trials. He concluded, "The tissue-stimulated zone generated by TMR, along with the precise delivery of stem cells, may prove to be more potent in combination than either therapy alone." TMR'09 campaign assists in ID of patients that TMR can help "We understand the trust and respect with which a heart patient views recommendations and treatment options from his or her cardiologist," said Richard Lanigan, President of Cardiogenesis. "A focus of our TMR'09 campaign is to provide cardiologists with the latest information on the clinical utility of TMR and to assist them in identifying and educating patients who can benefit. We will build on this event in driving the awareness of the benefits of TMR with cardiologists and patients, as well as the advantages provided with our minimally invasive PEARL delivery systems."
