Human Neural Progenitors Secreting Glial Cell Line-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (CNS10-NPC-GDNF) for the Treatment of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Therapeutic Candidate or Device CNS10-NPC-GDNF – a neural progenitor cell secreting GDNF Indication ALS Therapeutic Mechanism This therapy will replace damaged astrocytes. The new astrocytes will release paracrine factors. As the cells have been modified to release GDNF they will also provide this factor to dying motor neurons. Unmet Medical Need There is no treatment […]

Stem Cell Gene Therapy for HIV Mediated by Lentivector Transduced, Pre-selected CD34+ Cells in AIDS lymphoma patients

Therapeutic Candidate or Device HSC gene modified by a lentiviral vector which encodes a triple combination of HIV-resistance genes and a pre-selective marker. Indication HIV in AIDS-lymphoma patients. Therapeutic Mechanism Bone marrow transplants are standard of care for AIDS-lymphoma patients providing a cure for the patient's lymphoma. A purified population of triple combination anti-HIV lentiviral […]

A Phase I/II, Non Randomized, Multicenter, Open-Label Study of G1XCGD (Lentiviral Vector Transduced CD34+ Cells) in Patients With X-Linked Chronic Granulomatous Disease

Therapeutic Candidate or Device The therapeutic product candidate is autologous CD34+ hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC) transduced with the G1XCGD lentiviral vector. Indication The target indication is for the transplantation of patients with severe X-linked Chronic Granulomatous Disease (XCGD) lacking matched donors. Therapeutic Mechanism Transplantation and engraftment of gene-corrected autologous HSPC after reduced intensity conditioning for […]

Novel Gene Therapy Targeting Multiple Pathological Drivers of Desmoplakin Associated Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy

Therapeutic Candidate or Device RJB-0402 is a liver-targeting adeno-associated virus vector-based gene therapy that drives over expression of FGF21. Indication Desmoplakin-related arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (DSP ACM) at high risk of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. Therapeutic Mechanism RJB-0402 targets hepatocytes to drive liver specific expression of FGF21 to restore cardiomyocyte function in patients with […]

Chimeric TGFB Signaling Receptor (CTSR) Enabled Anti-B7H3 CAR T-cell Therapy in Children and AYA with Recurrent Solid Tumors

Therapeutic Candidate or Device Engineered CAR T-cells are enhanced to allow their survival in solid tumors Indication Children, adolescents and young adults with variety of solid tumors but focus on sarcomas and neuroblastomas Therapeutic Mechanism Engineered T-cells are expanded and infused back to the patients. The additional mechanisms engineered in these cells allows them to […]

Therapeutic Candidate or Device Cryopreserved autologous TRAC locus 1XX BCMA-CAR T cells Indication Relapsed and Refractory Multiple Myeloma Therapeutic Mechanism Engineered T cells target and kill BCMA+ Myeloma cells Unmet Medical Need No durable treatments are available for RRMM and only ~30% of patients can access current BCMA CAR therapies. This product can improve product […]

Pre-Clinical To Clinical Gene Therapy Development For CMT4J

Therapeutic Candidate or Device AAV9 Gene Therapy For An Ultra-Rare Disease Called CMT4J Indication CMT4J or the FIG4 Gene Therapeutic Mechanism Gene Therapy through an Intrathecal One-Time Injection Unmet Medical Need CMT4J is an ultra-rare disorder that presently lacks any available treatment options and represents an underserved orphan population. Project Objective Successful Filing of an […]

Manufacturing of AS-202, an Antisense oligonucleotides for a Phase 1/2 Clinical Trial for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Therapeutic Candidate or Device AS-202, an antisense oligonucleotide Indication Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Therapeutic Mechanism AS-202 targets PIKFYVE, a lipid kinase. By inhibiting PIKFYVE activity, it induces exosomal secretion, which robustly clears misfolded proteins including C9ORF72 dipeptide repeat proteins (DPRs), TDP-43 and tau from neurons. Unmet Medical Need To date, therapeutic options for ALS have been […]

Neural stem cell delivered CRAd-S-pk7 oncolytic viro-immunotherapy for ovarian cancer

Therapeutic Candidate or Device A clinically tested tumor-tropic neural stem cell (NSC) platform for effective distribution of oncolytic virotherapy to ovarian cancer metastases. Indication Chemo-resistant, metastatic ovarian cancer. Therapeutic Mechanism CRAd-S-pk7 is a tumor specific replication-competent adenovirus driven by survivin, which is highly expressed in ovarian cancer cells. We will use our tumor-tropic NSC platform […]

TRX103 for prevention of GvHD in patients receiving HLA mismatched related or unrelated allogeneic HSCT for the treatment of hematologic malignancies.

Therapeutic Candidate or Device An allogenic, off the shelf, engineered regulatory T cell product that mimics the function of T regulatory Type 1 (Tr1) cells. Indication Prevention of acute and chronic Graft versus Host Disease (GvHD) in patients undergoing mismatched stem cell transplant.
