Chimeric TGFB Signaling Receptor (CTSR) Enabled Anti-B7H3 CAR T-cell Therapy in Children and AYA with Recurrent Solid Tumors
Therapeutic Candidate or Device Engineered CAR T-cells are enhanced to allow their survival in solid tumors Indication Children, adolescents and young adults with variety of solid tumors but focus on sarcomas and neuroblastomas Therapeutic Mechanism Engineered T-cells are expanded and infused back to the patients. The additional mechanisms engineered in these cells allows them to […]
Extracellular Vesicles for Ventricular Tachycardia
Therapeutic Candidate or Device CSSHI-2003 (extracellular vesibles derived from cardiohsphere derived cells) Indication Patients afflicted with recurrent fast and irregular heart beating (a.k.a. ventricular tachycardia). Therapeutic Mechanism CSHHI-2003 (CDC exosomes) are lipid vesicles filled with bioactive materials that have anti-inflammatory, anti-fibrotic, and regenerative properties. Decreasing the fibrosis in the heart can decrease the incidence of […]
Neural stem cell delivered CRAd-S-pk7 oncolytic viro-immunotherapy for ovarian cancer
Therapeutic Candidate or Device A clinically tested tumor-tropic neural stem cell (NSC) platform for effective distribution of oncolytic virotherapy to ovarian cancer metastases. Indication Chemo-resistant, metastatic ovarian cancer. Therapeutic Mechanism CRAd-S-pk7 is a tumor specific replication-competent adenovirus driven by survivin, which is highly expressed in ovarian cancer cells. We will use our tumor-tropic NSC platform […]
Autologous Gene Corrected Sinus Basal Cells to Treat Serious Cystic Fibrosis Sinus Disease
Therapeutic Candidate or Device Gene corrected autologous sinus airway basal stem cells from patients with Cystic Fibrosis. Indication The proposed studies provide an innovative stem cell based approach with gene correction to treat chronic sinusitis in CF.
