Vascular BioSciences is a biomedical company dedicated to
developing innovative technologies to detect and treat vascular-based
diseases such as cardiovascular disease, pulmonary vascular
disease and cancer.
Many vascular-based diseases are poorly understood, difficult
to diagnose, and frequently associated with significant morbidity
and mortality because of the inaccessibility of vascular tissue.
To extend the length and quality of patient life, Vascular
BioSciences has created the worlds first endoarterial
biopsy catheter, a device designed to obtain biopsy specimens
from the inner layers of an artery via a minimally invasive
technique.
Vascular BioSciences is committed to improving current patient
therapy and disease management by providing a more comprehensive
picture of a patient's vascular pathological, cellular, molecular,
and genetic profile through the use of our first product,
the endoarterial biopsy catheter.
The endoarterial biopsy catheter will provide a means for
monitoring therapeutic interventions, optimizing medical management,
customizing diagnosis and therapy, and anticipating future
adverse events through the early identification of disease
markers in vascular biopsies from patients. Biopsy samples
will undergo histopathological and molecular analysis to identify
each patients disease expression. Pharmaceutical therapeutics
can then be administered to precisely target disease pathways.
Vascular BioSciences focuses on focuses on improving the diagnosis
and medical management of primary and secondary pulmonary
hypertension, acute and chronic lung transplant rejection,
vasculitis, pulmonary manifestations of collagen vascular
diseases such as lupus and scleroderma, and primary and secondary
lung cancer, coronary artery disease, peripheral vascular
disease, and pharmaceutical drug discovery and development.
Vascular BioSciences develops interventional devices, molecular
diagnostics and pharmaceuticals in order to enhance and prolong
human life.
