Stage of Program: Clinical Trial, Phase 1
Evaluation of Safety and Feasibility of Cytomegalovirus-Specific, Anti-HIV Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CMV/HIV-CAR) T Cells in People with HIV
Therapeutic Candidate or Device Cytomegalovirus (CMV)-specific T cells that express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) which targets and eliminates HIV-infected cells Indication Management of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) Therapeutic Mechanism Persons with HIV (PWH) lose immunity because of decreased T lymphocyte function. We propose to treat them with CAR T cells which […]
A Phase I Open Label Study to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of ISP-001 in Patients with Mucopolysaccharidosis Type 1
Therapeutic Candidate or Device B cells will be isolated from patients suffering MPSI. These will be transformed with a normal copy of the gene and re-introduced into the patient Indication Mucopolysaccharidosis I (MPSI) is a rare disease that affects predominantly children. Untreated, these patients typically die by the age of 10. Therapeutic Mechanism The therapeutic […]
A Phase 1b, Randomized, Blinded, Placebo-Controlled Dose-Ranging Study of GNSC-001 Evaluating Safety, Pharmacodynamics, and Biomarkers in Knee OA
Therapeutic Candidate or Device GNSC-001 is an adeno-associated vector (AAV) expressing an optimized form of IL-1Ra, a naturally occurring protein that blocks IL-1 signaling. Indication Osteoarthritis of the knee Therapeutic Mechanism GNSC-001 is an adeno-associated virus (AAV) gene therapy vector that expresses IL-1Ra and confers long-term IL-1 inhibition following a single, local injection into the […]
TACH101: A Potent, First-In-Class KDM4 Inhibitor for Advanced Cancers
Therapeutic Candidate or Device TACH101 is a first-in-class small molecule inhibitor of KDM4 histone demethylase, an epigenetic modifier important for cancer stem cell proliferation. Indication Colorectal Cancer Therapeutic Mechanism TACH101 is intended to target colorectal cancer (CRC) stem cells as well as the bulk tumor by inhibiting proliferation. In CRC animal models, TACH101 treatment reduced […]
Treatment of Severe Aplastic Anemia by induction of mixed chimerism using CD4+ T cell depleted haploidentical donor stem cell transplant
Therapeutic Candidate or Device COH-MC-17: A minimally manipulated half-match donor blood stem cell transplant with a low-toxic conditioning regimen of the transplant host Indication Older (>40 yrs) Severe Aplastic Anemia (SAA) patients that are ineligible for the potentially curative standard stem cell transplant Therapeutic Mechanism Allogeneic stem cell transplant from full-match donor is the only […]
Phase 1/2 Study of NRTX-1001 Neural Cell Therapy in Subjects with Drug-Resistant Unilateral Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy
Therapeutic Candidate or Device NRTX-1001 is an inhibitory neuron cell therapy derived from human embryonic stem cells. Indication Focal epilepsy; drug-resistant mesial temporal lobe epilepsy. Therapeutic Mechanism NRTX-1001 is an inhibitory neuron cell therapy derived from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) for the prospective treatment of drug-resistant focal epilepsy (MTLE). NRTX-1001 is delivered as a […]
Phase 1 Clinical research program for functional cure of HIV with EBT-101, in-vivo gene therapy
Therapeutic Candidate or Device EBT-101 is a novel genome editing therapeutic targeting integrated HIV-1 genome to achieve sustained virologic reduction to enable functional cure. Indication EBT-101 is intended to deplete the reservoir of integrated HIV-1 proviral DNA in immune reconstituted virally suppressed HIV-1 positive individuals. Therapeutic Mechanism EBT-101 is an in vivo gene therapy product […]
Phase 1 Study of Autologous CD4LVFOXP3 in Participants with IPEX Syndrome
Therapeutic Candidate or Device CD4+ T cells that have undergone lentiviral -mediated gene transfer of Forkhead Box P3 (FOXP3) and acquired regulatory T cell function. Indication Immune dysregulation Polyendocrinopathy Enteropathy X-linked (IPEX) syndrome Therapeutic Mechanism Administration of autologous CD4LVFOXP3 that constitutively and stably express wild-type FOXP3 gene will replace the lack of function regulatory T […]
Phase I Treatment of Urethral Strictures in Humans
Therapeutic Candidate or Device An engineered urethral segment comprised of autologous urothelial, smooth muscle cells, and progenitor cells within a tubular scaffold. Indication Autologous engineered urethral constructs are for the replacement of urethral strictures that are too long for treatment by conventional methods. Therapeutic Mechanism The autologous engineered urethras are intended to replace the entire […]
A Phase I Study of Multiple doses of NSC-Based Oncolytic Virotherapy Administered Intracerebrally to Patients with Recurrent High-Grade Gliomas
Therapeutic Candidate or Device Neural stem cells that are genetically engineered to express a cancer-killing virus that specifically targets brain tumor cells Indication Recurrent brain tumors in adults: high grade gliomas (HGG), such as glioblastoma (GBM) Therapeutic Mechanism The neural stem cells will act as carriers to deliver a cancer-killing virus to brain tumors (at […]
