Phase I Treatment of Urethral Strictures in Humans
When a scar, or stricture, forms along the urethra it impedes the flow of urine and causes other complications. James Yoo, M.D., Ph.D., and his team at Wake Forest University…
PHASE 1, OPEN LABEL, DOSE-ESCALATION STUDY OF CRX100 IN PATIENTS WITH ADVANCED SOLID TUMORS
BioEclipse combines two approaches - an immune cell called a cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cell and a virus engineered to kill cancer cells called an oncolytic virus (OV) - to create…
FIH Study of NRTX-1001 Neural Cell Therapy in Drug-Resistant Unilateral Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy
The current therapies for drug-resistant epilepsy are only partially effective and have serious drawbacks. One treatment that can significantly reduce seizure frequency is the removal of the affected part of…
A Phase I, Pilot Study of Human Embryonic Stem Cell-Derived Cardiomyocytes in PaTients with ChrOnic Ischemic Left VentRicular Dysfunction (HECTOR)
Dr. Wu and his team at Stanford University will use hESCs to generate cardiomyocytes (CM), a type of cell that makes up the heart muscle. The newly created hESC-CMs will…
Phase 1 Study of Autologous CD4LVFOXP3 in Participants with IPEX Syndrome
IPEX syndrome is a rare condition where the body can't control or restrain an immune response, so the person's immune cells attack their own healthy tissue. The syndrome mostly affects…
Phase 1 Clinical Trial of Autologous GD2 Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cells for Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Gliomas and Spinal Diffuse Midline Glioma
Crystal Mackall, M.D., and her team at Stanford University will modify a patient's own T cells, an immune system cell that can destroy foreign or abnormal cells. The T cells…
Phase 1/1b study of T-allo10 infusion after HLA-partially matched abdepleted-HSCT in children and young adults with hematologic malignancies.
Dr. Matthew H Porteus and his team at Stanford will test an immunotherapy cell approach using a therapy that is enriched with specialized immune cells called type I regulatory T…
CNS10-NPC-GDNF delivered into the motor cortex for the treatment of ALS
ALS is a neurodegenerative disease that results in the death of nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord, causing the muscles in the body to gradually weaken, leading to…
Safety and Tolerability Study of Neural Stem Cells (NR1) in Subjects with Chronic Ischemic Subcortical Stroke
Gary Steinberg, M.D., Ph.D., and his team at Stanford University are conducting a clinical trial to test a therapy for motor disabilities caused by chronic ischemic stroke. While "clot busting"…
