  • Presentation underscores unique potential for atrioventricular interval modulation ("AVIM") therapy to manage blood pressure in older, high-risk patients who have indicators of diastolic dysfunction and progression to heart failure with preserved ejection fraction ("HFpEF")
  • Hypertensive heart disease represents over 7.7 million U.S. patients, the same population with hypertension and elevated cardiovascular risk cited in the recent FDA Breakthrough Device Designation ("BDD") for AVIM therapy
     

NEW HOPE, Pa., June 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Orchestra BioMed Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:OBIO, "Orchestra BioMed" or the "Company"))), a biomedical company accelerating high-impact technologies to patients through risk-reward sharing partnerships, today announced the presentation of key clinical insights into the role of AVIM therapy for the treatment of high-risk hypertension at the Congenital, Structural, and Valvular Heart Disease Interventions ("CSI") 2025 Meeting. The data highlight AVIM therapy's unique potential to address hypertensive heart disease, a significant and under-recognized cardiovascular syndrome that affects a growing segment of the aging hypertension population.

The presentation will cover:

  • The clinical burden and therapeutic gaps in managing patients with high-risk hypertension and increased risk of heart failure;
  • The growing body of clinical and mechanistic evidence demonstrating AVIM therapy's potential to lower blood pressure and improve cardiac function; and
  • Details on the BACKBEAT global pivotal study, currently enrolling patients with uncontrolled hypertension who are indicated for a dual-chamber pacemaker. The study is being conducted in collaboration with Medtronic, the global leader in cardiac pacing therapy.
