T2 Biosystems

At T2 Biosystems, we are united in our mission: to improve patient outcomes, lower mortality rates and reduce the cost of healthcare by helping medical professionals make targeted treatment decisions earlier. By leveraging the power of our innovative and proprietary T2 Magnetic Resonance (T2MR) platform, T2 Biosystems’ diagnostics are designed to provide faster, easier and more accurate results than traditional methodologies. T2 Biosystems is currently targeting a range of critically underserved healthcare conditions, focusing initially on those for which a rapid diagnosis will serve an important dual role – saving lives and reducing costs. Our T2Candida Panel tackles sepsis and is the first FDA-cleared diagnostic panel requiring no blood culture – delivering more accurate results in hours versus days. Other ongoing development efforts include bacterial and hemostasis panels, as well as a Lyme disease partnership with Canon Life Sciences. Over 100 studies published in peer-reviewed journals have featured T2MR technology in a breadth of applications, including the direct detection and measurement of targets in various sample types, such as whole blood, plasma, serum, saliva, sputum and urine. With limits of detection as low as 1 CFU/mL, we believe T2MR technology will drive the next generation of diagnostics.

Shockwave Medical

Shockwave Medical is revolutionizing the interventional treatment of advanced cardiovascular disease by developing technology that targets calcified plaque. Inspired by 30-years of safety and efficacy in kidney stone treatment, our Intravascular Lithotrispy family of catheters delivers localized lithotripsy at the site of cardiovascular calcium that enables gentle balloon dilatation of calcified, stenotic arteries. IVL catheters use sonic pressure waves to preferentially impact hard tissue, disrupting calcium, while leaving soft tissue undisturbed. An integrated balloon catheter then dilates the calcified lesion at low-pressure, restoring blood flow. In peripheral vascular clinical study of moderate and severely calcified lesions in 95 patients, IVL demonstrated safety and consistent procedure success with low procedural complications. The technology is inherently familiar, easy to use, operates with just the push of a button, and works with existing cardiovascular treatments. And because it is built on a traditional balloon catheter platform, it integrates seamlessly with clinicians` existing workflow.
