PONTE VEDRA, Fla., May 15, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cadrenal Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: CVKD), a biopharmaceutical company developing therapeutics for patients with cardiovascular disease, today announced manufacturing and supply chain milestones for its lead drug candidate, tecarfarin, a novel oral vitamin K antagonist (VKA) anticoagulant that is designed to address unmet needs in anticoagulation therapy.
Cadrenal completed the technical transfer and manufacturing of its tecarfarin drug substance in accordance with current good manufacturing practices (cGMP) earlier this year at a U.S. site of a leading global Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization (CDMO). Manufacturing of the tecarfarin drug product candidate is currently underway.
"We are pleased with the important progress we have made with the supply chain and cGMP manufacturing process for tecafarin," said Quang X. Pham, Chairman & CEO. "This is a key milestone as we support our clinical development strategy and tecarfarin’s potential to provide clinical benefits for patients with cardiovascular disease who require chronic VKA anticoagulation."
About Cadrenal Therapeutics, Inc.
Cadrenal Therapeutics, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company developing therapeutics for patients with cardiovascular disease. Cadrenal’s lead investigational product is tecarfarin, a novel oral vitamin K antagonist anticoagulant that addresses unmet needs in anticoagulation therapy. Tecarfarin is a reversible anticoagulant (blood thinner) designed to prevent heart attacks, strokes, and deaths due to blood clots in patients requiring chronic anticoagulation. Although warfarin is widely used off-label for several indications, extensive clinical and real-world data have shown it can have significant, serious side effects.
Cadrenal is pursuing a pipeline-in-a-product approach with tecarfarin. Tecarfarin received Orphan Drug designation (ODD) for advanced heart failure patients with implanted mechanical circulatory support devices, including Left Ventricular Assisted Devices (LVADs). The Company also received ODD and fast-track status for tecarfarin in end-stage kidney disease and atrial fibrillation (ESKD+AFib).
Cadrenal is opportunistically pursuing business development initiatives with a longer-term focus on creating a pipeline of cardiovascular therapeutics. For more information, visit https://www.cadrenal.com/ and connect with us on LinkedIn.
