"This subgroup of the less severely impaired patients appeared to demonstrate an overall greater response rate that those in the control group," noted Dr. Alan Kadish, professor, Division of Cardiology, Feinberg School of Medicine, Northwestern University. "We are particularly encouraged by the findings in this subgroup of patients and look forward to focusing on this subgroup in our next study."
