Windtree Announces Istaroxime has been Chosen for a Plenary Session Presentation at the Heart Failure Society of America 2025
Windtree Therapeutics (NASDAQ:WINT) announced that its drug candidate istaroxime has been selected for a plenary session presentation at the Heart Failure Society of America (HFSA) Annual Scientific Meeting 2025. The presentation will focus on interim data from the Phase 2 SEISMiC C study in cardiogenic shock patients.
The interim analysis of the first 20 patients showed promising results with no new safety concerns and no excess arrhythmias when combined with standard therapies. The drug's effects were consistent with previous studies, showing potential benefits for patients with low blood pressure due to heart failure. Notably, cardiogenic shock SCAI Stage C has a 20-30% in-hospital mortality rate.
Windtree Therapeutics (NASDAQ:WINT) ha comunicato che il suo candidato farmacologico istaroxime è stato selezionato per una presentazione in sessione plenaria al Congresso Annuale 2025 della Heart Failure Society of America (HFSA). L'intervento illustrerà i dati interim dello studio di Fase 2 SEISMiC C su pazienti in shock cardiogeno.
L'analisi interinale dei primi 20 pazienti ha evidenziato risultati promettenti, senza nuovi problemi di sicurezza né aumento delle aritmie quando il farmaco è stato associato alle terapie standard. Gli effetti osservati sono coerenti con studi precedenti e indicano potenziali benefici per pazienti con pressione arteriosa bassa dovuta a insufficienza cardiaca. Va ricordato che lo shock cardiogeno SCAI Stadio C presenta un tasso di mortalità ospedaliera del 20-30%.

La ponencia se centrará en los datos provisionales del estudio de Fase 2 SEISMiC C en pacientes con shock cardiogénico.
El análisis interino de los primeros 20 pacientes mostró resultados prometedores, sin nuevas señales de seguridad ni aumento de arritmias cuando se administró junto con las terapias estándar. Los efectos del fármaco coinciden con estudios previos, sugiriendo beneficios potenciales para pacientes con tensión arterial baja por insuficiencia cardíaca. Cabe destacar que el shock cardiogénico SCAI Estadio C tiene una tasa de mortalidad hospitalaria del 20-30%.

La présentation portera sur les données intermédiaires de l'étude de phase 2 SEISMiC C chez des patients en choc cardiogénique.
L'analyse intermédiaire des 20 premiers patients a montré des résultats encourageants, sans nouveaux signaux de sécurité et sans survenue accrue d'arythmies en association avec les traitements standards. Les effets du médicament sont cohérents avec les études antérieures et suggèrent des bénéfices potentiels pour les patients présentant une hypotension liée à une insuffisance cardiaque. Il est notable que le choc cardiogénique SCAI stade C présente un taux de mortalité hospitalière de 20�30%.
Windtree Therapeutics (NASDAQ:WINT) teilte mit, dass sein Wirkstoffkandidat istaroxime für eine Plenarvorstellung auf dem Annual Scientific Meeting 2025 der Heart Failure Society of America (HFSA) ausgewählt wurde. Die Präsentation wird sich auf Zwischenbefunde der Phase-2-Studie SEISMiC C bei Patienten mit kardiogenem Schock konzentrieren.
Die Zwischenanalyse der ersten 20 Patienten ergab vielversprechende Resultate ohne neue Sicherheitsbedenken und ohne vermehrte Arrhythmien bei Kombination mit Standardtherapien. Die Wirkungen stimmen mit früheren Studien überein und deuten auf mögliche Vorteile für Patienten mit herzinsuffizienzbedingtem niedrigem Blutdruck hin. Bemerkenswert ist, dass der kardiogene Schock SCAI Stufe C eine stationäre Sterblichkeitsrate von 20�30% aufweist.
- Interim Phase 2 data showed no new safety concerns
- Drug effects were consistent with previous positive study results
- Company plans to advance to global Phase 3 study
- Drug shows potential to improve cardiac function without increasing heart rate
- None.
Insights
Windtree's istaroxime shows promising interim Phase 2 results in cardiogenic shock, supporting advancement to Phase 3 for this high-mortality condition.
Windtree Therapeutics' announcement represents a meaningful clinical development milestone for istaroxime in cardiogenic shock SCAI Stage C, a critical condition with
The interim analysis of the first 20 patients in the SEISMiC C study revealed no new safety concerns or excess arrhythmias when istaroxime was combined with standard therapies. This safety profile is particularly noteworthy for heart failure treatments, where arrhythmogenic side effects often limit therapeutic options. The consistent hemodynamic and echocardiographic improvements align with previous study results, suggesting reproducible efficacy.
Istaroxime's mechanism offers a differentiated approach by improving cardiac function and increasing blood pressure without the heart rate elevation seen with many inotropes. Additionally, the preservation of renal function addresses a critical concern in heart failure management, as cardiorenal syndrome significantly complicates treatment and worsens outcomes.
The company's confidence to advance to a global Phase 3 program is scientifically justified based on these interim results. Given the lack of innovation in this therapeutic area for decades and the high unmet need in cardiogenic shock, successful development could represent a significant advancement for a patient population with limited treatment options.

WARRINGTON, Pa., Aug. 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Windtree Therapeutics, Inc. (“Windtree� or the “Company�) (NasdaqCM: WINT), a diversified company with several divisions, including a cryptocurrency treasury strategy and two promising therapeutic pipelines for which the Company is actively seeking long-term development partners, announced that istaroxime was chosen for a presentation entitled, “Safety and Efficacy of intravenous administration of istaroxime for 48 hours in patients with SCAI Stage C cardiogenic shock due to heart failure� at the Heart Failure Society of America (HFSA) Annual Scientific Meeting 2025.
Acute decompensated heart failure and cardiogenic shock have had very little drug innovation in decades. The Company believes istaroxime has a profile that offers potential benefits to patients with low blood pressure due to heart failure. Istaroxime improves cardiac function and can increase blood pressure without increasing heart rate. Also, istaroxime tends to preserve measures of renal function and contributes to resolution of congestion and fluid overload that often accompanies heart failure. Importantly, it does not appear to increase clinically significant arrythmias. The istaroxime cardiogenic shock SCAI Stage C interim analysis included the first 20 patients enrolled in the study. There were no new safety concerns identified, and no apparent excess arrythmias in patients treated with istaroxime when given with standard of care therapies. The effects on hemodynamic and echocardiographic measures appeared to be consistent with results seen in previous istaroxime studies.
“We are very pleased with the interim results of the SEISMiC C study,� said Jed Latkin, Chief Executive Officer of Windtree. “We believe istaroxime can be an important drug innovation for acute decompensated heart failure and cardiogenic shock patients because the istaroxime studies have promising results and this is a condition with a large unmet need and has been underserved for decades.�
About Istaroxime
Istaroxime is a first-in-class dual-mechanism therapy designed to improve both systolic and diastolic cardiac function. Istaroxime is a positive inotropic agent that increases myocardial contractility through inhibition of Na+/K+- ATPase with a complimentary mechanism that facilitates myocardial relaxation through activation of the SERCA2a calcium pump on the sarcoplasmic reticulum enhancing calcium reuptake from the cytoplasm. Data from multiple Phase 2 studies in patients with early cardiogenic shock or acute decompensated heart failure demonstrate that istaroxime infused intravenously can significantly improve cardiac function and blood pressure without increasing heart rate or the incidence of clinically significant cardiac rhythm disturbances.
