By GlobalDataAs per the transaction, Truvic will work as a wholly-owned unit of Imperative Care while maintaining its founding leadership team and brand identity.
Furthermore, the Series D funding proceeds will be used to develop and market Truvic’s technologies for peripheral vascular disease treatment.
Imperative Care chairman and CEO Fred Khosravi said: “In addition to our initial focus in the field of stroke, we see natural areas of synergy across unmet patient needs, and we are committed to accelerating those paths to commercialisation.
“To achieve that objective, and beginning with Truvic, we are creating a network of wholly-owned subsidiaries that will leverage synergies where appropriate while at the same time giving the development programmes the independence, specialisation and focus they need to bring important vascular intervention products to the market to meet patient needs as rapidly as possible.”
Two of Imperative Care’s product platforms have received 510(k) clearance from the US Food and Drug Administration.
These platforms are a family of access catheters known as Large Distal Platform, which aids in smooth navigation into the brain’s blood vessels, and the Zoom Aspiration System, which enables clot removal during ischemic stroke.
