Humacyte launches V012 trial

Humacyte has initiated V012, the first randomized trial designed to address gender disparities in AV fistula maturation, which is crucial for dialysis access.

The company developed this approach in response to challenges faced by women, who experience higher rates of AV fistula maturation failure, leading to longer dependence on catheters and increased risk of infection.

Humacyte previously announced plans to present interim Phase 3 V012 results of its ATEV therapy for hemodialysis access in women at Kidney Week, according to an earlier report. The company is also scheduled to showcase detailed Phase 3 ATEV trial data in women needing dialysis access at ASN Kidney Week 2026, as noted in prior coverage. These presentations follow ongoing efforts to address challenges in vascular access for female patients.
