Longeveron (NASDAQ: LGVN) has licensed US Patent 12,168,028 B2 from the University of Miami, acquiring technology for deriving GHRH-Receptor+ cardiomyogenic cells from pluripotent stem cells. This breakthrough addresses a significant challenge in cardiovascular stem cell therapy by eliminating the risk of malignant ventricular arrhythmias associated with traditional induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells.
The patented technology selectively produces cells destined to become cardiomyocytes while eliminating cells with electrical automaticity, potentially offering safer therapeutic solutions for various heart conditions. This advancement complements Longeveron's existing pipeline, which includes programs in hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), Alzheimer's disease, and pediatric dilated cardiomyopathy.
Longeveron (NASDAQ: LGVN) has received FDA approval for its Investigational New Drug (IND) application to conduct a Phase 2 pivotal registration study of laromestrocel for treating pediatric dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). The trial is expected to begin in the first half of 2026.
Laromestrocel, a proprietary allogeneic cell therapy derived from mesenchymal stem cells, aims to address a critical unmet need in DCM treatment, where nearly 40% of children require heart transplants or die within two years of diagnosis. The condition affects at least 100,000 children worldwide, with DCM being the most common form of cardiomyopathy in children, representing 50-60% of all pediatric cardiomyopathy cases.
The FDA's approval allows Longeveron to proceed directly to a Phase 2 pivotal registration trial, potentially accelerating the development timeline for this innovative stem cell therapy approach to treating pediatric cardiovascular diseases.
Longeveron (NASDAQ: LGVN), a clinical stage regenerative medicine biotech company, has appointed Than Powell as Chief Business Officer, effective July 7, 2025. Powell will lead the company's business strategy, focusing on Alzheimer's disease program partnering and international strategy for the hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) program.
Powell brings over 25 years of pharmaceutical and biotech leadership experience from companies including GSK and Eli Lilly. The appointment comes at a crucial time as Longeveron recently completed enrollment in its pivotal Phase 2 trial for laromestorcel, with top-line data expected in approximately 13 months. If positive, these results would support the company's first Biological License Application (BLA) submission.
Longeveron (NASDAQ:LGVN) has completed enrollment for its pivotal Phase 2b clinical trial (ELPIS II) evaluating laromestrocel as a treatment for Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS). The trial enrolled 40 pediatric patients across 12 premier institutions, with top-line results expected in Q3 2026.
The therapy has received Rare Pediatric Disease, Orphan Drug, and Fast Track designations from the FDA. The ELPIS II trial builds on positive ELPIS I results, which showed 100% transplant-free survival up to five years post-treatment, compared to historical control data showing 20% mortality. If approved, the U.S. market potential is estimated at up to $1 billion.
Upon potential FDA approval, Longeveron could receive a Priority Review Voucher, which recently sold for $150-$158 million.
