Project Objective: IND
Development of AB-110: genetically-modified endothelial cells plus expanded cord blood hematopoietic stem cells as a transplantation therapy
Therapeutic Candidate or Device CD34+ Cord-Blood Derived Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells Co-Cultured and Co-Infused with Genetically Modified Endothelial Cells Indication Life-threatening high-risk hematologic malignancies including leukemia and lymphoma Therapeutic Mechanism Appropriately matched cord-blood derived stem and progenitor cells which has a significant population of both short- and long-term stem cells (expanded by genetically modified […]
Development of a Chondrogenic Drug Candidate Targeting Resident Mesenchymal Stem Cells for the Treatment of Osteoarthritis
Therapeutic Candidate or Device The therapeutic candidate is a drug-like small molecule that promotes cartilage resident mesenchymal stem cell differentiation into chondrocytes. Indication Osteoarthritis and cartilage injury Therapeutic Mechanism The therapeutic candidate, through intra-articular administration, promotes cartilage resident mesenchymal stem cell differentiation into chondrocytes. The newly formed chondrocytes replace the dead chondrocytes, synthesize and secret […]
IND-enabling study of subretinal delivery of human neural progenitor cells for the treatment of retinitis pigmentosa
Therapeutic Candidate or Device human fetal cortex derived neural progenitor cells (CNS10-NPC) Indication To stabilize disease progression and maintain ocular integrity and vision for RP patients. This approach can be applied to more prevalent AMD. Therapeutic Mechanism A single subretinal injection of Human neural progenitor cells (CNS10-NPC) offers dramatic preservation of vision. CNS10-NPC engraft and […]
