Research Objective This DISC2 tests a strategy to target survival and self-renewal in glioma stem cells (GSC), and will identify a therapeutic candidate for safety, dosing and efficacy testing. Impact…
Research Objective Development of a CRISPR genome editing therapy for ALS caused by C9orf72 and the delivery vehicle required to bring this novel therapy to patients. Impact A cure for…
Research Objective This proposal will develop a cell-based therapy that can restore vision in retinal degeneration associated blindness such as Stargardt disease and age-related macular degeneration. Impact Chemically induced method…
Research Objective The therapeutic candidate we aim to discover under this award is clomipramine, an antidepressant that might help reduce a harmful protein in the nerve cells of patients with…
Research Objective With a single administration to an individual, lentiviral vectors that selectively transduce B cells in vivo and express highly potent anti-HIV-1 proteins to suppress HIV-1 replication throughout life…
Research Objective To discover CRISPR-based genetic strategies that will directly and therapeutically modify cardiac myosin heavy chain isoform expression to treat HF and cardiomyopathies. Impact Heart Failure and Cardiomyopathies Major…
Research Objective This personalized chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy will attack a wider range of cancer cells, and block cancer's defense mechanisms to empower the immune system to…
Research Objective Genome-edited autologous regulatory T cells for promoting immune tolerance in combination with T-cell-targeting therapies Impact We focus on type 1 diabetes in this proof-of-concept study, but the therapeutic…
Research Objective Allogeneic Human induced pluripotent stem cells-derived inhibitory interneuron therapy product encapsulated in a hyaluronan/VEGF nanoparticle hydrogel for the treatment of stroke Impact Previous stem cell-based technologies had poor…
Research Objective Allogeneic human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived glial enriched progenitor cell therapy to treat mild traumatic brain injury Impact Prior to this study, glial cell-based therapies have never been…
