enVVeno Medical Corp. is a development stage medical device company, which develops tissue based solutions that are designed to be life sustaining or life enhancing for patients with cardiovascular disease, and peripheral arterial and venous disease. The company is headquartered in Irvine, California and currently employs 37 full-time employees. The company went IPO on 2018-05-31. The firm is focused on the advancement of bioprosthetic (tissue-based) solutions to improve the standard of care for the treatment of venous disease. The firm is developing surgical and non-surgical replacement venous valves for patients suffering from severe chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) of the deep venous system of the leg. The Company’s lead product is the VenoValve, which is a surgical replacement venous valve that is being evaluated in a U.S. pivotal study. The VenoValve is implanted into the femoral vein of the patient in an open surgical procedure via a 5-to-6-inch incision in the upper thigh. The firm is also developing a second product called enVVe, which is a non-surgical, transcatheter-based replacement venous valve. Both the VenoValve and enVVe are designed to act as one-way valves, to help assist in propelling blood up the veins of the leg, and back to the heart and lungs.
