Solution

The heart is an organ upon which life itself depends. With a commitment to providing new treatment options for heart failure and saving many lives, iHeart Japan is developing regenerative medicine products using iPS cells. Our product, IHJ-301, combines cells derived from iPS cells, including cardiomyocytes and endothelial cells, with a biomaterial, enabling long-term survival following implantation onto the heart and is expected to deliver strong therapeutic efficacy. Going forward, we plan to commercialize this product in Japan and internationally, with the aim of realizing a society in which patients can be saved without heart transplantation.
