About NurOwn
The NurOwn technology platform utilizes autologous mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) that are induced to secrete neurotrophic factors (MSC-NTF cells). This approach targets critical disease pathways involved in neurodegenerative disorders. The MSC-NTF cells are harvested from each individual ALS (搜索) patient and manufactured through a proprietary process. The lead program for NurOwn is focused on ALS.
BrainStorm's commitment to ALS (搜索) research is reflected in extensive preclinical studies and a series of clinical trials, all of which have been published in peer-reviewed journals. These studies have yielded valuable insights into the underlying pathology of ALS, as well as disease progression and potential therapeutic interventions.
Clinical Insights from NurOwn Program
Data from the NurOwn clinical program has facilitated in-depth analyses of various aspects of ALS (搜索), including the quantification of the Floor Effect, longitudinal evaluation of pre-specified biomarkers across a 20-week period, and pharmacogenomic analysis of clinical outcomes. These analyses offer promise for the development of future treatments for ALS.
