An experimental treatment for patients who experience spontaneous bleeding from anticoagulant drugs such as warfarin has received financial support from an investor syndicate led by Ysios Capital and INKEF Capital. The treatment is being developed by the Dutch company VarmX BV in order to reverse the life-threatening bleeding that can occur in about 2-3% of patients who take anticoagulant therapy to reduce the risk of stroke in atrial fibrillation and prevent deep vein thrombosis.
