Hits: 15
Cell therapies firm apceth has won regulatory clearance in Germany to start an open-label mulitcentre Phase I/II trial evaluating its genetically modified, autologous adult mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy, Agenmestencel-T, in adult patients with advanced adenocarcinoma of the gastrointestinal tract.
Agenmestencel-T is generated from the patient’s own MSCs. The cells are harvested from the bone marrow, engineered to carry a cancer-targeting cytotoxic gene product based on a based on gamma-SIN-vector, and then readministered into the patient. Therapy is designed to be activated only at the tumor site, to increase local efficacy and reduce systemic toxicity.

SUNRISE, FL--(Marketwired - Jun 12, 2013) - Bioheart, Inc. (OTCQB: BHRT) announced today that they have successfully enrolled and treated all patients in the phase I ANGEL Trial. The trial, which is fully funded by Bioheart, is being conducted in Mexico at the Hospital Angeles with the Regenerative Medicine Institute (RMI). This phase I study will provide necessary safety and preliminary efficacy of adipose-derived stem cells in patients with congestive heart failure. Endpoints include safety, exercise capacity, quality of life, and ejection fraction at 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.
Kristin Comella, Bioheart's Chief Science Officer, said, "We were so excited to see brisk enrollment in the study. Once we collect preliminary safety and efficacy, we will expand the study into a Phase II trial."
