XyloCor Therapeutics is focused on improving the lives of people with cardiovascular disease through our commitment to advancing the science of gene therapy.

XyloCor Therapeutics is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of novel gene therapy for unmet needs in advanced coronary artery disease. In the United States, coronary artery disease is a leading cause of death and disability. Our lead product candidate, XC001, is in clinical development for patients with refractory angina for which there are no treatment options. XyloCor also has a secondary product, XC002, in discovery stage, for patients with cardiac tissue damage from heart attacks.

Improve the lives of people who struggle with daily activities due to cardiovascular disease through our commitment to advancing the science of gene therapy.

XyloCor founders Dr. Ronald Crystal and Dr. Todd Rosengart started their collaboration in the 1990s at Weill Cornell Medical College where they combined their expertise in gene therapy and cardiac surgery to develop potential treatments for patients with advanced coronary artery disease. Their work continues to be referenced by the scientific community and is the foundation for the creation of XyloCor and its clinical programs. XyloCor holds exclusive license from Weill Cornell Medical College for the gene therapy being developed by the company.
