Stage of Program: Clinical Trial, Phase 1/2
A phase I/II study of human placental hematopoietic stem cell derived natural killer cells (CYNK-001) for the treatment of adults with COVID-19
Therapeutic Candidate or Device Human placental hematopoietic stem cell derived natural killer cells (CYNK-001) Indication SARS-CoV-2 positive patients requiring hospital admission and have any 2 out of 3 symptoms: fever, cough, or positive disease-related chest x-ray. Therapeutic Mechanism CYNK-001 is allogenic, human placental hematopoietic stem cell-derived NK cells that express the dominant NK cells marker […]
A phase 1/2 study to evaluate a bispecific CD19/CD20-directed CAR T cell, in refractory lupus nephritis and systemic lupus erythematosus
Therapeutic Candidate or Device IMPT-514 is an autologous T-cell product genetically modified to express a chimeric antigen receptor targeting CD19 and CD20 Indication Active, refractory lupus nephritis (LN) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) Therapeutic Mechanism Targeted depletion of pathogenic autoantibody-secreting B cells as well as CD20+ T cells by a bispecific CD19/CD20 -directed CAR T […]
RPESC-RPE-4W Therapy for dry Age-related Macular Degeneration
Therapeutic Candidate or Device Retina pigment epithelial stem cell (RPESC)-derived RPE progeny at 4 weeks of differentiation (RPESC-RPE-4W) Indication Dry age-related macular degeneration (dry AMD). Therapeutic Mechanism Dry AMD involves loss of the RPE cells that support the overlying retina and vision. We transplant laboratory grown RPESC-RPE-4W cell to replace the RPE cells lost in […]
Personalized antisense oligonucleotide therapy for rare pediatric genetic disease: SCN2A
Therapeutic Candidate or Device Investigational personalized antisense oligonucleotide drug (nL-SCN2A-002) Indication SCN2a-associated genetic disorder Therapeutic Mechanism The study participant has a pathogenic de novo p.R853Q gain-of-function amino acid substitution mutation in the SCN2A gene with both GOF and LOF effects when expressed in cells. nL-SCN2A-002 is designed to specifically bind the pathogenic allele and lower […]
Autologous ARTEMIS® T Cells to Treat Refractory/Relapsed Pediatric Liver Cancer
Therapeutic Candidate or Device ET140203 T cells: engineered T-cell therapy whereby autologous T cells are modified to specifically target and kill AFP+/ HLA-A2+ cancer cells. Indication Pediatric subjects aged ≥ 1 year to ≤ 21 years who are AFP-positive/HLA-A2-positive and have relapsed/refractory (r/r) HB, HCN-NOS, or HCC. Therapeutic Mechanism ET140203 T-cell therapy is designed to […]
Reduced intensity conditioning with JSP191 prior to TCRαβ+ T-cell/CD19+ B-cell depleted hematopoietic stem cell transplant for Fanconi Anemia patients
Therapeutic Candidate or Device αβdepleted-HSC grafts and a reduced-intensity preparative conditioning regimen containing JSP191 Indication Treatment of patients with all genetic forms of Fanconi Anemia (FA) with evidence of cytopenias Therapeutic Mechanism Fanconi anemia (FA) patients undergoing HCT have heightened sensitivity to current conditioning regimens and short and long-term sensitivity to graft versus host disease […]
Sequential same donor αβdepleted-HSCT from an HLA-partially matched donor allowing immunosuppression free kidney transplant
Therapeutic Candidate or Device Mobilized peripheral blood stem cells from allogeneic donors depleted of TCRαβ+ T cells/CD19+ B cells Indication Renal failure due to one of four genetic and/or immunological diseases Therapeutic Mechanism 1. By using haploidentical parents, we will expand the number of potential living donors, and 2. with pre-HSCT immune ablation we can […]
A Double-Blind Randomized Placebo-Controlled Investigation of Autologous Muscle Derived Progenitor Cells for the Treatment of Dysphagia
Therapeutic Candidate or Device Autologous Muscle Derived Progenitor Cells (AMDC) isolated from skeletal muscle biopsy Indication Subjects with dysphagia (swallowing difficulties) that develops following treatment for head and neck cancer Therapeutic Mechanism Autologous Muscle Derived Progenitor Cells differentiate to form new muscle fibers, engraft into existing myofibers, and have been shown to increase muscle diameter […]
Anti-HIV duoCAR-T cell therapy for HIV infection
Therapeutic Candidate or Device HIV-specific CAR-T cells Indication Management of HIV infection Therapeutic Mechanism We will modify T cells such that they are able to directly control HIV in the absence of therapy. Should this work, these cells will result in long-term control of HIV in absence of any ongoing treatment, a version of a […]
LADICell
Therapeutic Candidate or Device The therapeutic candidate is an ex-vivo autologous gene therapy approach for Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency-I (LAD-I). Indication The target clinical indication is Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency-I (LAD-I), a pediatric hematological rare disease. Therapeutic Mechanism The therapeutic is based in an ex-vivo, lentiviral-based, patient-specific approach by genetically engineering the patient's own CD34 positively selected […]
