Slide 1: NurOwn for ALS
NurOwn for ALS Biomarker exploration of NurOwn multimodal mechanism of action on neuroinflammation, neuroprotection and neurodegeneration Bob Dagher, MD Executive Vice President Chief Development Officer November 17, 2023
Slide 2: Complex & Multi-faceted Mechanisms Underlying ALS
Complex & Multi-faceted Mechanisms Underlying ALS Neurodegeneration may be linked to deficient neuroprotection and neuroinflammation1 Stem cell treatment potential to synergistically tackle interrelated pathological mechanisms MSCs play key role in immunomodulation 1. Chen, 2020
Slide 3: Stem Cells Exhibit Multiple Physiological Actions
Stem Cells Exhibit Multiple Physiological Actions Function of NSC’s fundamental physiological role¹ Neuroprotection & trophic support via diffusible factors, gap junctions & exosomes Scavenging ROS & excitotoxins Reducing inflammation & scarring Promoting angiogenesis Repairing the blood-bra
Slide 4: Stem Cell Therapy Success Lessons
Stem Cell Therapy Success Lessons Treat as early in the disease process as possible¹ o Protecting established neural circuits/networks much more tractable than reconstructing or replacing them Transplanted stem cell to participate in homeostatic processes of target organ (brain & spinal cord)
Slide 5: NurOwn (MSC-NTF): A Novel Stem Cell Therapy
NurOwn (MSC-NTF): A Novel Stem Cell Therapy Modulates neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative disease processes o Promotes neuronal survival o Improves neurological function Autologous cells recognized as individual’s own cells o Safer choice in avoiding unwanted immune responses Ref: FDA CMC Re
