Stage of Program: Clinical Trial, Phase 2
A Phase 2b, Randomized, Assessor-Masked Clinical Trial to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of the CPCB-RPE1 Implant in Subjects with Geographic Atrophy
Phase 2b Clinical Study of KPI-012 Topical Ophthalmic Human Mesenchymal Stem Cell Secretome for the Treatment of Persistent Corneal Epithelial Defect
Phase 2 Study of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Gene Transfer Inducing Fetal Hemoglobin in Sickle Cell Disease
Boston Children’s Hospital is conducting a gene therapy clinical trial for sickle cell disease (SCD). This project is part of an agreement between CIRM and the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), part of the National Institutes of Health, to co-fund cell and gene therapy programs under the NHLBI’s “Cure Sickle Cell” Initiative. The […]
Mesenchymal Stromal Cells for ARDS (COVID positive and COVID negative)
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a life-threatening lung injury that occurs when fluid leaks into the lungs. As a result, breathing becomes difficult and oxygen cannot get into the body. ARDS is one of the most serious and lethal consequence of COVID-19. This clinical trial will use Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs) for the treatment of ARDS, […]
A Phase 2 Study of the Safety of Repeat Intravitreal Injection of Human Retinal Progenitor Cells (jCell) in Adult Subjects with Retinitis Pigmentosa
Retinitis pigmentosa is blinding eye disease that affects approximately 150,000 individuals in the US and 1.5 million people around the world. It is caused by the destruction of light-sensing cells in the back of the eye known as photoreceptors. This leads to gradual vision loss and eventually blindness. The approach for this trial involves injecting […]
Allogeneic Cardiac-Derived Stem Cells for Patients Following a Myocardial Infarction
In this trial, Capricor Therapeutics used donor cells derived from the heart to treat patients at risk for developing heart failure after a heart attack. In previous clinical studies, the cells appeared to reduce scar tissue, promote blood vessel growth and improve heart function. This trial is ending after failing to achieve its primary goal […]
Phase 2 Safety and Efficacy Study of CLBS03 Autologous T-Regulatory Cells in Adolescents with Recent Onset Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus
Children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) face lifelong struggles with controlling their blood sugar levels and, despite careful management, an increased risk of severe complications. Currently, there is no approved therapy that maintains or restores the insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells that are destroyed by this disease. Researchers at Caladrius Biosciences will take cells, called regulatory T cells […]
Allogeneic Cardiosphere-Derived Cells for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Cardiomyopathy
Capricor is using donor cells derived from the heart to treat patients suffering from Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), a genetic disorder that leads to progressive muscle degeneration, including heart muscle. One of the leading causes of death for children with DMD is heart failure and the aim of this treatment is to help improve heart […]
Efficacy and safety of cryopreserved autologous CD34+ HSC transduced with EFS lentiviral vector encoding for human ADA gene in ADA-SCID subjects
In ADA-SCID, allogeneic hematopoietic (blood) stem cell transplants from non-matched sibling donors are a high risk procedure. Additionally, the efficacy of chronic enzyme replacement therapy is uncertain in the long-term. A team at UCLA is using a patient’s own blood stem cells to try and rebuild the damaged immune systems of patients with ADA-SCID. They will use what’s […]
Phase 2b Clinical Study of Safety and Efficacy of Intravitreal Injection of Retinal Progenitor Cells (jCell) for Treatment of Retinitis Pigmentosa
Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a severe form of blindness that runs in families with an incidence of 1:4000. A team at UC Irvine, is using cells called retinal progenitor cells to repair the damage caused by this vision destroying disease. The cells are injected into the back of the eye and it’s hoped they will help […]
