Description

Windtree Therapeutics is a biopharmaceutical company dedicated to developing innovative treatments for oncology and cardiovascular diseases, focusing on areas with significant unmet medical needs. Their lead asset, istaroxime, is a first-in-class intravenous agent designed to improve cardiac function by increasing both systolic contractions and diastolic relaxation of the heart. Istaroxime has shown promising results in clinical trials for acute heart failure (AHF) and early cardiogenic shock (ECS), and Windtree is actively seeking partners to advance its development.

Beyond istaroxime, Windtree is also developing a portfolio of SERCA2a activators, which have the potential to provide both acute and chronic treatment for heart failure. Additionally, the company has acquired a novel protein kinase C iota inhibitor platform for oncology, which they plan to advance this year. Windtree has a global reach, with operations in Warrington, PA, Taiwan, and Milan, Italy, and they are actively exploring potential licensing transactions, strategic alliances, and acquisitions to grow their business and bring their innovative therapies to patients in need.
