A Phase 2b Study of the Efficacy of a Novel Pro-Neurogenesis/Pro-Plasticity Drug for Bipolar Depression Using a Precision Psychiatry Approach

Therapeutic Candidate or Device ALTO-100 Indication Bipolar depression (I or II) Therapeutic Mechanism ALTO-100 increased hippocampal neurogenesis and neuroplasticity. Its effects are mediated by signaling through the brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) pathway. Unmet Medical Need Bipolar depression is a severe, life-long disorder with high burden of illness and risk of suicide. The only approved […]

Phase 1/2a Dose Escalation Study of ANPD001 in Sporadic Parkinson Disease

Therapeutic Candidate or Device Autologous stem cell-derived dopaminergic neuron replacement therapy. Indication Parkinson’s disease Therapeutic Mechanism The investigational cell therapy product is being studied as an autologous neuron replacement for Parkinson’s disease. Unmet Medical Need PD is a neurodegenerative disorder, affecting 1+ million people in the US. PD causes loss of dopamine (DA) neurons in […]

A Phase I/IIa Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of Toca 511/Toca FC with Standard of Care Therapy in Newly Diagnosed High Grade Glioma

Therapeutic Candidate or Device DB107 (Toca 511), a retroviral replicating vector expressing yeast cytosine deaminase, which converts an antifungal prodrug to an anticancer drug Indication Newly diagnosed high-grade glioma Therapeutic Mechanism Retroviral replicating vector DB107 (Toca 511) spreads through tumors and delivers yeast cytosine deaminase (CD), which converts the antifungal prodrug 5-fluorocytosine (5-FC) to the […]

A PHASE 1B STUDY EVALUATING THE SAFETY AND EFFICACY OF AN ALLOGENEIC CELL THERAPY IN SUBJECTS WITH CLEAR CELL RENAL CELL CARCINOMA (ccRCC)

Therapeutic Candidate or Device An allogeneic anti-CD70 CAR-T cell product will be evaluated for the treatment of advanced or metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). Indication Advanced or metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) Therapeutic Mechanism The product is an allogeneic TRAC/CD52-knockout CAR T cell therapy targeting CD70. In this clinical study, the […]

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 […]
