(TSXV: HEM) (OTCQB: HMTXF) ("Hemostemix" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the appointment of Dr. Renzo Cecere, MD, FRCSC, to its Scientific Advisory Board.Dr. Cecere is the McGill University Chief of Cardiac Surgery, Surgical Director of the Heart Failure and Heart Transplantation Program, and Director of the Mechanical Circulatory Support Program. He is also Associate Member of the McGill University Department of Mechanical Engineering, and a Director and Principal Investigator of the Research Institute of the MUHC Myocardial Regeneration Laboratory.For over a decade, Dr. Cecere's lab has been investigating novel methods to strengthen the stem-cell induced regeneration of infarcted heart tissue. Dr. Cecere has utilized placenta-derived stem cells and investigated their regenerative potential in different animal models of myocardial infarction ("MI"). More recently, Dr. Cecere's lab is actively involved in a project to create a platform to generate patient-specific cardiomyocytes from the blood of patients with heart failure. In Dr. Cecere's recent project (under review, Journal of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine), the team encapsulated placenta derived stem cells in a hydrogel scaffold and implanted it in a rat MI model. The stem cell/scaffold composite enhanced several parameters of cardiac function, including ejection fraction and fractional shortening, while also reducing fibrosis and increasing angiogenesis. In fact, Dr. Cecere's lab recently published a systematic review and meta-analysis that demonstrated that stem cells combined with bioactive scaffolds provide enhanced tissue regeneration in animal models of MI, compared to stem cells injected alone. This study paves the way for future research and clinical trials, supporting the use of ACP-01-based bioactive scaffolds to improve the stem cell-induced repair after a MI. "I have worked in the field of heart-based stem cell science for more than a decade, and I find ACP-01's unique properties, safety profile and statistically significant preliminary intramyocardial efficacy results to be very promising" said Dr. Cecere. I look forward to collaborating with management to create the best product to repair hearts before an infarct or following an infarct, and designing a clinical trial of ACP-01 that proves its efficacy" said Dr. Cecere. "Hemostemix is delighted to welcome Dr. Cecere to our team. His appointment to the SAB is the first of many areas of collaboration. As one of Canada's most well-regarded stem cell focused heart transplant surgeons, Dr. Cecere and his team enable Hemostemix to fast-track product development and clinical trials. We very much look forward to his counsel and his teams' collaboration to trial ACP-01 based bioactive scaffolds to improve stem cell-induced repair of the heart," stated Thomas Smeenk, CEO. ABOUT HEMOSTEMIXHemostemix is an autologous stem cell therapy company, founded in 2003. A winner of the World Economic Forum Technology Pioneer Award, the Company has developed, patented, and is scaling a patient's blood-based stem cell therapeutics platform that includes angiogenic cell precursors, neuronal cell precursor and cardiomyocyte cell precursors. Seven studies including 260 ACP-01 recipients define its safety and efficacy profile as a treatment for heart diseases such as Dilated and Ischemic Cardiomyopathy, Angina, and diseases of Ischemia such as Critical Limb Ischemia.
