Published:28th Dec 2021
BrainStorm Cell Therapeutics Inc. a leading developer of cellular therapies for neurodegenerative diseases, announced the peer reviewed publication of Phase III clinical data in Muscle and Nerve.

The paper is entitled "A Randomized Placebo-Controlled Phase III Study of Mesenchymal Stem Cells Induced to Secrete High Levels of Neurotrophic Factors in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis."

Data from the paper are from a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase III trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of repeat doses of NurOwn (stem cell therapy) in study participants. Although previously announced results showed the trial did not reach statistical significance on the primary or secondary endpoints, pre-specified and post hoc analyses show a NurOwn-induced treatment effect across both primary and secondary efficacy outcomes in those with less advanced disease.
