PDCM program has FDA IND approval for a single Phase 2 registration study, with trial initiation targeted for 2027.
AD program completed Phase 2a with positive results in brain volume preservation; seeking global partner for Phase 2/3 trial.
AF program completed Phase 2b, showing improved functional capacity and quality of life in older adults.
Market opportunity and valuation
HLHS, PDCM, AD, and AF represent multi-billion dollar addressable markets in the U.S. and globally.
Laromestrocel has five FDA expedited designations, accelerating regulatory pathways.
Current market cap is under $50M, with a significant value gap compared to peers like Capricor and Mesoblast, which reached $1B+ valuations pre-commercialization.
PRV eligibility for HLHS could provide a $200M asset, underpinning a valuation floor.
Recent PRV sales have ranged from $150M to $200M.
