Kadimastem Submits IND Application to the FDA for its Phase IIa Clinical Trial with AstroRx® for the Treatment of ALS

Kadimastem Ltd.

Kadimastem Ltd. (TASE: KDST), a well-known biotech company in the field of cellular therapy, which is in the clinical development stages of innovative products for the treatment of ALS and potential cure for diabetes, has submitted an Investigational New Drug (IND) application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for an approval for a multi-site phase IIa clinical trial to test its lead neurological cell therapy product, AstroRx ® for the treatment of patients with ALS. Pending the FDA approval of the IND submission, the planned multi-site phase IIa clinical trial intends to examine for the first time the repeated administration of AstroRx® every 3 months in order to prolong the therapeutic effect observed in the first in human phase I/IIa clinical trial conducted by the company in Israel at Ein Kerem Hadassah Hospital from 2018-2020. AstroRx® was injected into the spinal cord fluid using a single standard lumbar puncture procedure, in which they demonstrated a good safety profile and clinically meaningful decline in the disease progression during the first 3-month follow-up period. The results of the clinical trial were published in February of 2023 in the prestigious scientific Journal of Translational Medicine. AstroRx® contains functional, healthy astrocytes (nervous system supporting cells) derived from human Embryonic Stem Cells (hESC) that aim to protect diseased motor neurons through several mechanisms of action. The goal is to nourish and support the malfunctioning motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord of patients suffering from Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), in order to slow the progression of the disease, improve quality of life and extend life expectancy for these patients. Kadimastem Founder and Chief Scientific Officer Professor Michel Revel said, “The submission of an IND to the FDA is a major milestone. It is very exciting to have arrived at this juncture. We eagerly await the approval to start this trial and wanting to help ALS patients as soon as possible.” Kadimastem CEO Asaf Shiloni said, “I’d like to congratulate our scientific team on the extremely important IND submission to the FDA. I would like to thank our VP of R&D Dr. Michal Izrael, our Regulatory Affairs Manager Dr. Vered Morad, our Director of Clinical Affairs Dr. Guy Slutsky, for their special effort and quality submission to the FDA. It is an enormous undertaking which brings great hope for the future. In 2022 we were awarded multiple patents worldwide, including from the United States Patent and Trademark Office, Japanese and Israeli patent offices for our cell therapy technology for treating ALS and other neurodegenerative diseases, as well as patents based on our cell therapy for diabetes. In addition, we have been engaging in very high-level discussions with various potential partners to advance both our ALS and diabetes programs.” Kadimastem Executive Chairman of the Board Ronen Twito said, “For the last year, we’ve reported our plans to submit an IND to the FDA with AstroRx ® for the treatment of ALS. The Submission of the IND marks a significant milestone for the company, and subject to the approval of the FDA we hope to commence this very important multi-site trial and to bring this potential life enhancing therapy to the market and to patients as soon as possible. In addition, we are moving forward with our plans to list on the NASDAQ when conditions allow, in order to expose the company to the American markets and the significant analytical capabilities of the major investment banks.” About AstroRx ® & ALS Kadimastem’s flagship product, AstroRx®, is a breakthrough technology that is comprised of a unique and large cell population of astrocytes derived from human pluripotent stem cells. The cells are intended to support the survival of motoneurons (the neurons control the motor-capability) in the central nervous system (CNS, brain, and spinal cord). These neurons are damaged in ALS, due to the harsh conditions in the CNS of the ALS patient and the consequential and eventual malfunctioning of the patient’s own astrocytes. This situation hampers and annuls the neuromuscular signaling, which leads to eventual paralysis and death. In December 2020, Kadimastem announced the results of the first of its kind, Phase I/IIa clinical trial, in which healthy and functioning astrocyte cells (AstroRx®) were injected into the spinal fluid of 10 ALS patients. Data showed that AstroRx® has the potential to slow the progression of ALS, as indicated by a clinical score called ALSFRS-R. Kadimastem plans to test repeated doses every three months of AstroRx® to achieve a continuous delay of the disease. Based on data that the company has to date, the company estimates that approximately 3 years after the completion of the upcoming clinical trial and receiving marketing approval, the marketing potential of AstroRx® in ALS patients in the US could reach approximately 0.5 billion dollars annually[1]. In addition, the product would be marketed in additional markets while concomitantly being tested in clinical trials in other neurodegenerative indications in the US. About Kadimastem Kadimastem is a clinical stage cell therapy company, developing and manufacturing "off-the-shelf", allogeneic, proprietary cell products based on its technology platform for the expansion and differentiation of Human Embryonic Stem Cells (hESCs) into functional cells. AstroRx®, the company's lead product, is an astrocyte cell therapy in clinical development for the treatment for ALS and in pre-clinical studies for other neurodegenerative indications. IsletRx is the company's treatment for diabetes. IsletRx is comprised of functional, insulin and glucagon producing and releasing pancreatic islet cells, intended to treat and potentially cure patients with insulin-dependent diabetes.

SkinCell Advanced Emerges As The Leading Brand To Treat Skin Tags and Moles In The Market

Allied PR

SkinCell Advanced is a corrector serum that is deemed to be a fast and effective solution to any kinds of blemishes such as moles and skin tags. It delivers results as soon as eight hours after applying the serum on the affected area. The serum provides such products by triggering a rush of white blood cells or leukocytes in the user's body to the mole or skin tag's location. White blood cells are the immune system of our body, and they protect our bodies against foreign particles. With the white blood cells' added efforts, the serum starts removing the blemish and subsequently healing it as well. Click here to find more on SkinCell Advanced Sanguinaria Canadensis, one of the main ingredients in the SkinCell Advanced serum, is a perennial herbaceous flowering plant initially found in the eastern parts of North America. This plant, commonly known as bloodroot, was essentially used by Native Americans to treat various clinical conditions and was deemed an effective natural remedy for centuries. The Sanguinaria Canadensis flower's primary function is to stimulate the immune system and trigger white blood cells to the injured or influenced portion of the human body and begin the process of healing. The SkinCell Advanced serum uses this particular function of the flower and triggers the white blood cells to rush to the area where it is applied. Skin tags and moles often spurts up in unwanted places, and people go to new extents every day to remove them. SkinCell Advanced offers a safe and natural way to remove them without the hassle of costly surgeries and repetitive clinic appointments. On the serum application, it first alerts the immune system of the body by irritating the area containing the blemish and then triggering white blood cells to that area. The irritation is done by Zincum Muriaticum, which is known for its powerful skin irritating properties. This mineral is found in the Earth's crust and acts as a strong disinfectant and has superior antiseptic qualities. Then the serum, with the help of this mineral creates a slight inflammation over the blemish, and a small scab will form over it. The SkinCell Advanced company says that this scab will be formed after eight hours of application. Once the scab is formed over the blemish, the human immune system sees it as an injury which it has to heal and thus the body’s natural process of healing begins. The bloodroot flower extract facilitates the healing process as it helps create a concentration of white blood cells under the scab. These white blood cells will notice the scab on the user’s skin and immediately start healing it. As soon as the scab forms on the blemish, the user must stop applying the SkinCell Advanced serum and let their natural immune system do the rest of the healing. The scab which had formed over the blemish must be left alone. The user should let the scab fall off naturally. Any amount of picking at the scab or even scratching it can act as a risk of scarring. To ensure that no scars form under the scab, SkinCell Advanced advises their users not to touch the scab until it has fallen off entirely and use a Neosporin type product to limit the risk of scarring. The company has also manufactured a Repair Cream which acts as a catalyst in the healing process and ensures that the mole or skiing tag does not leave a scar. If the user does the whole process correctly, SkinCell Advanced makes sure that the blemish will disappear entirely and show no returning signs. The serum treats a wide variety of skin blemishes, including skin tags, dark moles, small warts, light moles, and even big warts. These blemishes, especially those in painful areas such as on armpits and the neck, can become frustrating to deal with. More often than not, these blemishes can become irritated from rubbing against one's clothing and cause them even more discomfort. SkinCell Advanced offers an ultimate solution to such people with their effective serum which shows quite impressive results in under eight hours. Contact Details Melissa support@jollofnews.com

Nation’s Transplant System Acts to Maximize Organ Use

United Network for Organ Sharing

United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS), the non-profit that contracts with the federal government to serve as the nation’s Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (OPTN), is driving efforts to maximize organ acceptance and use. In its role as the OPTN, UNOS recently launched a predictive analytics tool, which adult kidney transplant programs can now use to augment decision-making and improve organ acceptance. Concurrently, the largest cohort of transplant organizations involved in an OPTN collaborative convened in Orlando, Florida recently to kick off a project focused on improving organ offer acceptance rates. The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine (NASEM) recommended the use of predictive analytics as well as improving organ offer acceptance rates in their Feb. 2022 report on the nation’s organ donation and transplantation system. In 2022, 19.14% of all organs successfully recovered from selfless donors were not transplanted into a recipient, a statistic that UNOS is working with the entire organ donation and transplant community to improve. The new efforts signify important actions on behalf of the over 104,000 patients currently on the transplant waitlist. Predictive Analytics Tool This new tool shows physicians the predicted impact that accepting or declining a donor kidney offer could have on their patient, supplementing data already available to find the best-fit organ. This resource, offered to all adult kidney transplant programs across the country at no charge, aims to support decision-making, ultimately increasing the number of kidney transplants. Developed in collaboration with Accenture Federal Services, the tool is already providing physicians two key data points: the predicted length of time that their patient may wait for a similar kidney offer, and the patient’s likelihood of survival over the next three years without a transplant. “When we can use technology to supplement sound clinical judgement, we are best serving patients waiting for the gift of life,” said UNOS CEO Maureen McBride. “The new predictive analytics tool will help support the transplant teams making critical decisions on behalf of their patients.” Predictive analytics is the use of data, statistics and modeling to predict the likelihood of future outcomes. The NASEM report recommended using predictive data to improve organ acceptance rates in their 2022 recommendations. “Accenture is proud to be involved in the design and development of predictive analytics models which promise to improve offer acceptance in decision support tools,” said Accenture Federal Studio Design Director Ben Cannon. “We appreciate the willingness of the OPTN leadership to engage in a build-test-learn approach to address this challenge and for their close collaboration with specialists from various disciplines across both organizations - data science, human centered design, behavioral science, and technology. We are excited to continue our work and scale the predictive analytics program.” After a pilot phase that began in early 2022, UNOS used input provided by participating transplant programs to improve the tool before the national launch. An advisory panel will continue evaluating community feedback. Offer Acceptance Collaborative UNOS recently brought together transplant programs from a third of the country’s transplant hospitals to kick off the OPTN Offer Acceptance Collaborative in Orlando, Fla. The largest UNOS-led collaborative to date, this six-month effort focuses on improving responses to organ offers as well as defining and revising acceptance criteria. This collaborative will also help programs prepare for the use of a new offer acceptance metric to evaluate transplant program performance. UNOS will begin using this metric as a component of OPTN transplant program performance monitoring in July of this year. "If you look at the history of donation and transplantation, innovation is how we got here,” said Offer Acceptance Collaborative participant Deborah Maurer, who serves as Transplant Services Program Administrator at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. “It's our obligation to keep innovating, not just the scientific or clinical practices, but also the quality improvement processes and practices. This collaborative is a perfect example of giving the community the opportunity and mechanism to drive that innovation." Organ offers are an integral part of the nation’s organ donation and transplant system, but acceptance rates vary across the United States. The NASEM report identified offer acceptance as a “key area for improvement for transplant centers.” “UNOS is proud to convene transplant programs from across the country for this important collaborative project,” said McBride. “By strengthening our practices, constantly reevaluating what works as a community and asking tough questions about how and what we can do better, we can best serve the patients and families who rely on us.” About UNOS United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) is a non-profit, charitable organization that serves as the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (OPTN) under contract with the federal government. The OPTN helps create and define organ allocation and distribution policies that make the best use of donated organs. This process involves continuously evaluating new advances and discoveries so policies can be adapted to best serve patients waiting for transplants. All transplant programs and organ procurement organizations throughout the country are OPTN members and are obligated to follow the policies the OPTN creates for allocating organs.

Coya Therapeutics’ Expansion Of Exclusive Worldwide Licensing Agreement With ARscience Biotherapeutics Could Have Outsized Impact On Neurodegenerative And Autoimmune Diseases Treatments

Coya Therapeutics Inc.

By Ernest Dela Aglanu, Benzinga Houston, Texas-based Coya Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: COYA) has just taken a giant leap in making effective proprietary treatments focused on certain neurodegenerative and autoimmune diseases available to more patients, as it announced the expansion of its exclusive worldwide rights for the development and commercialization of COYA 301 — the company’s low-dose IL-2 subcutaneous administration product candidate. For industry watchers, including investors, this might be very important, especially as multiple autoimmune diseases have largely unmet medical needs. A deep dive into the statistics by the American Autoimmune Related Diseases Association (AARDA) shows that an estimated ~50 million Americans have one or more autoimmune diseases. More worryingly, AARDA further said approximately 75% of those affected are women and tend to cluster in families, impacting multiple family members and generations. Autoimmune diseases are among the top 10 leading causes of death among American women. Expansion Of Its Exclusive Worldwide Rights The statistics around autoimmune diseases are certainly worrying. To help make a difference, players like Coya are actively ramping up and expanding their therapies to address the needs of the market. Coya just announced the expansion of their exclusive worldwide rights with ARScience Biotherapeutics Inc. for the development and commercialization of COYA 301, Coya’s low-dose IL-2 subcutaneous administration product candidate. Since 2020, the clinical-stage biotechnology company has been developing multiple therapeutic platforms to enhance T cell (Treg) function, including biologics and cell therapies. COYA 301 is an immunomodulatory cytokine for subcutaneous administration intended to enhance regulatory Treg function in vivo to treat the systemic and neuro-inflammation underlying certain autoimmune and neurodegenerative diseases. Under the expanded terms of the agreement with ARScience, Coya reports that it has been granted the rights to develop and commercialize COYA as a combination therapy across multiple therapeutic areas and disease conditions and as a monotherapy for various neurodegenerative disorders and autoimmune diseases. The company expatiated that these additional rights expand on the rights provided in the original license, which allowed Coya to develop and commercialize the product candidate as monotherapy for a number of neurodegenerative conditions and as a combination Treg-based therapy across multiple therapeutic areas. “We believe that Treg dysfunction is a common characteristic in certain neurodegenerative and autoimmune diseases. The expansion of the license agreement enables our development of COYA 301 in a potentially larger group of patients suffering from progressive diseases characterized by sustained inflammation,” Howard Berman, Ph.D., CEO of Coya, said in a statement. According to him, the company’s strategy is to develop COYA 301 as a monotherapy and in combination with other immunomodulatory drugs ( COYA 302 ) to potentially mitigate persistent inflammation. Carlos Banado, CEO of ARScience Biotherapeutics, also commenting on the licensing agreement, noted, “there is not currently an approved recombinant human low-dose IL-2 for therapeutic use. The development of a low-dose IL-2 formulation, delivered via a subcutaneous injection, may provide effective treatment in a wide range of diseases characterized by increased inflammation. We are confident that Coya Therapeutics has the expertise to develop and commercialize this asset in multiple indications, and we look forward to a successful collaboration.” The licensing agreement could be significant, especially as dysfunctional Tregs are the underlying cause behind numerous conditions, including neurodegenerative, metabolic and autoimmune diseases. This cellular dysfunction may lead to sustained inflammation and oxidative stress resulting in a lack of homeostasis of the immune system. Luckily, Coya says its investigational product candidate pipeline leverages multiple therapeutic modalities aimed at restoring the anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory functions of Tregs. The company’s therapeutic platforms include Treg-enhancing biologics, Treg-derived exosomes, and autologous Treg cell therapy. The expansion of exclusive worldwide licensing agreement could give Coya an edge while having a positive impact on the global autoimmune disease diagnostics market with players like Exagen Inc. (NASDAQ: XGN), Oncimmune Holdings PLC (LON: ONC), and Retromer Therapeutics. With the global market estimated to be worth $4.7 billion in 2021 and expected to reach about $8 billion by 2027 growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.3%, the company appears well positioned for continued growth. This article was originally published on Benzinga here. About Coya Therapeutics, Inc.Headquartered in Houston, TX, Coya Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: COYA) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing proprietary treatments focused on the biology and potential therapeutic advantages of regulatory T cells (“Tregs”) to target systemic inflammation and neuroinflammation. Dysfunctional Tregs underlie numerous conditions including neurodegenerative, metabolic, and autoimmune diseases, and this cellular dysfunction may lead to a sustained inflammation and oxidative stress resulting in lack of homeostasis of the immune system. Coya’s investigational product candidate pipeline leverages multiple therapeutic modalities aimed at restoring the anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory functions of Tregs. Coya’s therapeutic platforms include Treg-enhancing biologics, Treg-derived exosomes, and autologous Treg cell therapy. Coya’s 300 Series product candidates, COYA 301 and COYA 302, are biologic therapies intended to enhance Treg function and expand Treg numbers. COYA 301 is a cytokine biologic for subcutaneous administration intended to enhance Treg function and expand Treg numbers in vivo, and COYA 302 is a biologic combination for subcutaneous and/or intravenous administration intended to enhance Treg function while depleting T effector function and activated macrophages.
