Therapeutic Candidate or Device Autologous Human CD34+ HSC from Mobilized PBSC of Patients with Cystinosis Modified by Ex Vivo Transduction using the pCCL-CTNS Lentiviral Vector Indication Cystinosis – An autosomal metabolic disease that belongs to the family of the lysosomal storage disorders. Gene involved is CTNS (encodes cystinosin). Therapeutic Mechanism The proposed therapy intervention is […]
A Phase 2 Study of the Safety of Repeat Intravitreal Injection of Human Retinal Progenitor Cells (jCell) in Adult Subjects with Retinitis Pigmentosa
Therapeutic Candidate or Device Allogeneic human retinal progenitor cells (hRPC) Indication Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP) Therapeutic Mechanism The cells are intended to remain suspended in the vitreous cavity of the eye and exert a beneficial neurotrophic effect on the degenerating retina. Unmet Medical Need RP is an incurable orphan disease. There are no treatments currently available […]
Pancreatic Islets and Parathyroid Gland Co-transplantation for Treatment of Diabetes in the Intra-Muscular Site: PARADIGM
Therapeutic Candidate or Device Human pancreatic islets and parathyroid gland combination graft Indication Patients with established Type 1 diabetes Therapeutic Mechanism Pancreatic islet transplantation has become a more viable approach to treat patients with established Type 1 diabetes. However, widespread application has been limited by several barriers, most importantly, poor islet survival and an inability […]

Induction of Tolerance by Combinatorial Therapy w/ Donor Stem Cells and Expanded Recipient Treg cells in HLA-mismatched Kidney Transplant Recipients
Therapeutic Candidate or Device Combined hematopoietic stem cell graft and recipient T regulatory cells Indication Kidney disease requiring kidney transplantation Therapeutic Mechanism The study will determine whether patients treated with TLI and rATG, and given a haploidentical living donor hematopoietic progenitor cell transplant (HSCT) , along with in vitro expanded recipient Treg cells (what we […]
Genetic Modification of Stem Cells and T cells to Activate the Immune System to Target Solid Tumors
Therapeutic Candidate or Device Autologous Peripheral Blood Stem Cells expressing the NY-ESO-1 TCR and a suicide/reporter gene combined with T cells expressing the same TCR Indication Locally advanced (unresectable stage IIIc) or metastatic malignancies (stage IV) that are HLA A2.1 +, NY-ESO-1 +, solid tumors, including sarcomas Therapeutic Mechanism The administration of TCR transduced mature […]
AB-205-001 Phase 1b Trial and Related Activities to Support Clinical Development of AB-205
Therapeutic Candidate or Device AB-205 consists of genetically engineered CD31+ cells derived from Human Umbilical Vein tissue. Indication To ameliorate or accelerate recovery from toxicities related to high-dose chemo followed by HDT-ASCT for the treatment of lymphoma and other cancers. Therapeutic Mechanism E-CEL UVEC cells (the active ingredient in AB-205) work both via the secretion […]
A Phase 1/2 Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of ST-400 Autologous HSPC Transplant in Transfusion-dependent β-Thalassemia
Therapeutic Candidate or Device ST-400 is a gene-edited cell therapy candidate for patients with transfusion-dependent beta-thalassemia Indication Transfusion-dependent beta-thalassemia Therapeutic Mechanism ST-400 is intended to disrupt BCL11A erythroid enhancer in CD34+ HSPC resulting in an increase in fetal hemoglobin which can substitute for reduced or absent adult Hb. Therefore, treatment with ST-400 may potentially reduce […]
Treatment of sickle cell disease by induction of mixed chimerism and immune tolerance using CD4+ T-depleted haploidentical blood stem cell transplant
Therapeutic Candidate or Device Haploidentical (half-match) T cell depleted blood stem cell transplant with a low-toxic conditioning regimen Indication Adult patients with severe sickle cell disease who are excluded from the potentially curative current standard stem cell transplant. Therapeutic Mechanism The proposed therapy is intended to achieve mixed chimerism and immune tolerance. Mixed chimerism is […]
