Cellphire, Inc., the global leader in long-term stabilization and storage of platelets, announced today the company’s rebranding to Cellphire Therapeutics, Inc. The significant rebrand includes a new logo and website.
At the heart of the rebrand is the company’s name change to Cellphire Therapeutics, a name that reflects the company’s vision—to be the world leader in platelet- and other cell-based therapeutics. In addition to the name change, the new website provides expanded insight into the company’s products and research.
The changes come at an exciting new phase for the company as its clinical research moves into Phase 2 clinical trials in bleeding patients for its lead product Thrombosomes®, funded by the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) and for Cryopreserved Platelets (CPP), funded by the U.S. Army. Thrombosomes® is the only platelet-based freeze-dried hemostatic agent in clinical trials. The product has the potential to transform transfusion medicine with its shelf stability of 3 years. In addition, Cellphire is developing CPP, frozen platelets, for the U.S. Army to fill a gap in military transfusion support. CPP is a complementary product to Cellphire’s next-generation product, Thrombosomes®.
“Cellphire has grown significantly over the past 16 years, and it is time to reflect that growth and our success in our brand identity,” said Rafael Jorda, Interim CEO, Cellphire Therapeutics. “We feel this new brand identity and website more accurately represents the company—now and as we expand in the future—and we are excited to share our new look and provide more insight into our work.”
