PRISM MarketView announces the release of an informative
interview with Cardiol Therapeutics President and CEO, David
Elsley, who discusses the company’s lead oral drug, CardiolRx™,
which is entering a late-stage Phase III clinical trial, MAVERIC,
for patients with recurrent pericarditis who are at high risk for
recurrence.
Cardiol Therapeutics is a clinical-stage life sciences company
focused on the research and clinical development of
anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic therapies for the treatment of
heart disease. Elsley states, “CardiolRx™ is uniquely positioned to
address critical gaps in the current treatment options for
recurrent pericarditis.”
During a discussion with PRISM MarketView, Elsley describes the
market opportunity for its lead drug candidate, its key
differentiators from other treatments, the recent Phase II
MAvERIC-Pilot study results, the company’s financial position and
key upcoming milestones. “With its potential to be safer, more
cost-effective, and disease-modifying, CardiolRx™ could
significantly improve the standard of care for the thousands of
patients living with recurrent pericarditis,” Elsley commented
regarding the potential positive impacts and market opportunity for
its lead drug candidate.

About Cardiol Therapeutics
Cardiol Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: CRDL) (TSX:
CRDL) is a clinical-stage life sciences company focused on the
research and clinical development of anti-inflammatory and
anti-fibrotic therapies for the treatment of heart disease. The
Company's lead small molecule drug candidate, CardiolRx™
(cannabidiol) oral solution, is pharmaceutically manufactured and
in clinical development for use in the treatment of heart disease.
It is recognized that cannabidiol inhibits activation of the
inflammasome pathway, an intracellular process known to play an
important role in the development and progression of inflammation
and fibrosis associated with myocarditis, pericarditis, and heart
failure.
Cardiol has received Investigational New Drug Application
authorization from the United States Food and Drug Administration
("US FDA") to conduct clinical studies to evaluate the efficacy and
safety of CardiolRx™ in two diseases affecting the heart: recurrent
pericarditis and acute myocarditis. The MAVERIC Program in
recurrent pericarditis, an inflammatory disease of the pericardium
which is associated with symptoms including debilitating chest
pain, shortness of breath, and fatigue, and results in physical
limitations, reduced quality of life, emergency department visits,
and hospitalizations, comprises the Phase II MAvERIC-Pilot study
(NCT05494788), the Phase II/III MAVERIC-2 trial, and the planned
Phase III MAVERIC-3 trial. The ARCHER trial (NCT05180240) is a
Phase II study in acute myocarditis, an important cause of acute
and fulminant heart failure in young adults and a leading cause of
sudden cardiac death in people less than 35 years of age. The US
FDA has granted Orphan Drug Designation to CardiolRx™ for the
treatment of pericarditis, which includes recurrent
pericarditis.
Cardiol is also developing CRD-38, a novel subcutaneously
administered drug formulation intended for use in heart failure – a
leading cause of death and hospitalization in the developed world,
with associated healthcare costs in the United States exceeding $30
billion annually.
