XVIVO Perfusion launches Perfadex Plus, an upgraded ready to use version of Perfadex
Perfadex is the market gold standard and has been marketed by XVIVO Perfusion since 1999. It is used for cold preservation of lungs i.e. flushing away donor blood and preserving the donated lungs before transplantation. It is being used in an overwhelming majority of all lung transplantations performed in the world and is estimated to have a worldwide market share of around 90 percent.
XVIVO Perfusion has through formulation development upgraded the product so that it now can be used without prior addition and mixing of buffer and electrolyte. Patent applications has been filed for the new proprietary formulation which has been named Perfadex Plus. Perfadex Plus is presently being launched with a start in European countries and is expected to be available in all major markets within the next 12 months.
“We are very happy to be able to offer the clinics a new safer, and easier to use version of our market gold standard product for lung preservation, Perfadex Plus, which will save time and effort for the teams that go out and retrieve donated lungs” says XVIVO Perfusion CEO Magnus Nilsson.
