XyloCor Therapeutics

XyloCor Therapeutics, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company specializing in the development of gene therapies for cardiovascular diseases, particularly advanced coronary artery disease. Founded in 2013 and based in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania, the company focuses on innovative treatments aimed at addressing significant unmet medical needs. Its lead product candidate, XC001, is currently in clinical development for patients suffering from refractory angina, targeting individuals who have exhausted other treatment options. XyloCor's approach centers on stimulating the formation of new coronary blood vessels to enhance blood supply to areas of the heart that are inadequately perfused, thereby improving patient outcomes in those affected by heart failure and ischemic conditions. The company collaborates with Weill Cornell Medical College to advance its gene therapy technologies.
