Broad Therapeutic Pipeline – Multi-organ Focus
Our therapeutic product development programs target diseases of major organ systems including both the central nervous system (CNS) and the liver. Our broad pipeline is addressing disorders in all three regions of the CNS – the brain, the spinal cord and the eye, along with a variety of liver diseases.

Pioneering Clinical Translation for CNS Disorders
Our CNS Program is the most advanced neural stem cell clinical development program in the field. As the first ever to conduct a US clinical trial with human neural stem cells, and the only company to date with established human safety data for these cells, we are poised to be among the first to market a stem cell-based therapeutic product for CNS disorders.

Homologous Approach Using Tissue-Derived “Adult” Stem Cells
We are primarily focused on the use of tissue-derived “adult” cells for use in homologous therapy (e.g. the use of CNS-derived neural stem cells for the treatment of CNS disorders and liver-derived cells for the treatment of liver disorders). Unlike embryonic or induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells, tissue-derived stem cells need not be modified in any way before transplantation.
