Lineage Cell Therapeutics (LCTX)
New Program Added To The Development Pipeline

Lineage Cell Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing novel cell therapies for unmet medical needs. Lineage’s programs are based on its robust proprietary cell-based therapy platform and associated in-house development and manufacturing capabilities. With this platform Lineage develops and manufactures specialized, terminally differentiated human cells from its pluripotent and progenitor cell starting materials. These differentiated cells are developed to either replace or support cells that are dysfunctional or absent due to degenerative disease or traumatic injury or administered as a means of helping the body mount an effective immune response to cancer. Lineage’s clinical programs are in markets with billion dollar opportunities and include three allogeneic (“off-the-shelf”) product candidates: (i) OpRegen®, a retinal pigment epithelium transplant therapy in Phase 1/2a development for the treatment of dry age-related macular degeneration, a leading cause of blindness in the developed world; (ii) OPC1, an oligodendrocyte progenitor cell therapy in Phase 1/2a development for the treatment of acute spinal cord injuries; and (iii) VAC, an allogeneic dendritic cell therapy platform for immuno-oncology and infectious disease, currently in clinical development for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer.

    Photoreceptor Development Program Announced.  Lineage Cell announced a new program to develop photoreceptor cells for transplantation. This is an additional application of Lineage’s proprietary cell-based technology for growing pluripotent cells into differentiated cells that can be transplanted to repair areas where cells have been lost to disease. The new program will develop cell transplants for the rod and cone photoreceptor cells in the eye.

    Photoreceptor Program Fits With OpRegen.  Lineage Cell’s most advanced product is OpRegen, a retinal pigmented epithelial (RPE) cell transplant therapy for age-related macular degeneration (dry AMD). The new photoreceptor program will develop cells to repair a different type of cell in the retina. The photoreceptor cell transplants have potential to address conditions such as retinitis pigmentosa …
