Release – Lineage Reports Fourth Case of Retinal Tissue Restoration With OpRegen

Posted on by Admin


Lineage Reports Fourth Case of Retinal Tissue Restoration With OpRegen®

 

  • Four Patients With Dry Age-Related Macular Degeneration Observed to Have Areas of Geographic Atrophy Which Diminished or Remained Unchanged Relative to Baseline for a Period of at Least 12 Months
  • All Four Patients Exhibited Improvements in Visual Acuity at 12 Months
  • Differences in Visual Acuity Between Treated and Untreated Eyes in all Cohort 4 Patients Remained Statistically Significant At 9, 12, and 15 Months

CARLSBAD, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Nov. 30, 2021– 

Lineage Cell Therapeutics, Inc.
 (NYSE American and TASE: LCTX), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing allogeneic cell therapies for unmet medical needs, announced today that restoration of retinal tissue was observed in a fourth patient enrolled in the Company’s Phase 1/2a clinical study of its lead product candidate, OpRegen. Retinal tissue restoration and improved visual acuity has now been observed in all four better vision patients treated in Cohort 4, where surgeons successfully covered the majority of the area of atrophy with a suspension of OpRegen cells. Outer retinal layer restoration, which was observed using clinical high-resolution Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT), was evidenced by the presence of new areas of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) monolayer with overlying ellipsoid zone, external limiting membrane, and outer nuclear layer, which were not present at the time of baseline assessment. These new and additive findings continue to support the Company’s view that atrophic AMD is not an irreversible, degenerative condition and that some portion of diseased retinal tissue may be recoverable. OpRegen is an allogeneic RPE cell transplant in development for the treatment of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) with geographic atrophy (GA), or dry (atrophic) AMD.

“After reporting three previous cases of retinal restoration over the course of the last two years, we have been carefully examining the other Cohort 4 patients. We have put significant work into reviewing images from the remaining patient who had the majority of the area of atrophy covered by the OpRegen suspension at the time of surgical implant. I am pleased to report that at the scheduled Month 12 post-operative visit for this patient, although less prominent than the 3 previously reported cases due to a smaller area of atrophy at baseline, there is clear evidence of retinal restoration in some areas, and the total area of atrophy as calculated using square root transformation, or SQRT, is smaller than the size calculated at baseline,” stated Jordi Monés, M.D., Ph.D., Director, Institut de la Màcula and Director, Principal Investigator and Founder, 
Barcelona Macula Foundation. “The finding of a fourth case of restoration further supports our goal of showing that atrophic age-related macular degeneration can be responsive to this type of cell therapy. Dry AMD is a progressive disease and halting or reversing an area of atrophy does not occur spontaneously, which we believe makes the durability and reproducibility of these changes unprecedented within the field. With 12 months of follow-up complete, I am eager to have these cases submitted for peer-reviewed publication.”

“We have treated 24 patients with OpRegen, 12 of which were not legally blind at baseline and represent our intended treatment population. Among these 12 patients, four received thorough coverage of OpRegen cells across the majority of the atrophic area and experienced a cessation or reversal of their areas of atrophy at 12 months and continue to be followed. These patients also experienced increases in their visual acuity in their treated eye. We believe these four patients represent the only examples of an experimental treatment for dry AMD which can reduce an area of atrophy in humans, rather than simply slow its growth,” added  Brian M. Culley, Lineage CEO. “Restoration of retinal tissue using cell therapy represents a paradigm shift compared to conventional approaches, which to date have only shown an unremarkable slowing of progression. In addition to being well tolerated to date, the durability of changes to areas of atrophy and improvements in visual acuity support the continued and rapid clinical development of OpRegen. Alongside our advisors, we currently are preparing for multiple engagements with FDA to discuss aspects of OpRegen’s designation, our manufacturing plans, and the design of a later-stage clinical trial to begin next year. We anticipate the first of these engagements will begin next month and continue in the first quarter of 2022.”

OpRegen Phase 1/2a Interim Clinical Trial Results

  • Retinal restoration, reported in four patients to date, persisted from over 12 months to greater than 3 years following treatment and continues to be followed.
  • Restoration was evidenced by the presence of new areas of RPE monolayer with overlying ellipsoid zone, external limiting membrane, and outer nuclear layer, which were not present at the time of baseline assessment.
    • Reductions, or no progression for at least 1 year, was observed in the total area of GA in all four of these better vision Cohort 4 patients.
  • Overall, using the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (EDTRS) assessment of best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), 7/12 (58%) of each of Cohort 4 patients’ treated eye were at baseline or better at 15 months or last time point, which extends beyond 3 years in some patients. In comparison, at the same time points, 8/12 (67%) were below baseline in those same patients’ fellow untreated eyes.
    • All four retinal restoration patients reported improvements in their visual acuity, which has been maintained for at least 12 months in all four of those patients.
  • Across the study, in patients with previously reported structural improvements in the retina, decreases in drusen density, and a trend toward slower GA progression in treated compared to untreated eyes continue to be present.
  • Evidence of durable engraftment of OpRegen RPE cells has extended to more than 5 years in the earliest treated patients, supporting the potential for OpRegen to be a one-time treatment.

Overall, OpRegen has been well tolerated to date and there have been no new, unexpected ocular or systemic adverse events or serious adverse events that have not been previously reported.

About OpRegen

OpRegen is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1/2a open-label, dose escalation safety and efficacy study of a single injection of human retinal pigment epithelium cells derived from an established pluripotent cell line and transplanted subretinally in patients with advanced dry AMD with GA. The study enrolled 24 patients into 4 cohorts. The first 3 cohorts enrolled only legally blind patients with best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of 20/200 or worse. The fourth cohort enrolled 12 better vision patients (BCVA from 20/65 to 20/250 with smaller mean areas of GA). Cohort 4 also included patients treated with a new “thaw-and-inject” formulation of OpRegen, which can be shipped directly to sites and used immediately upon thawing, removing the complications and logistics of having to use a dose preparation facility. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of OpRegen as assessed by the incidence and frequency of treatment emergent adverse events. Secondary objectives are to evaluate the preliminary efficacy of OpRegen treatment by assessing the changes in ophthalmological parameters measured by various methods of primary clinical relevance. OpRegen is a registered trademark of 
Cell Cure Neurosciences Ltd., a majority-owned subsidiary of 
Lineage Cell Therapeutics, Inc.

About Age-Related Macular Degeneration

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is an eye disease that can blur the sharp, central vision in patients and is the leading cause of vision loss in people over the age of 60. There are two forms of AMD: dry (atrophic) AMD and wet (neovascular) AMD. Dry (atrophic) AMD is the more common of the two forms, accounting for approximately 85-90% of all cases. In atrophic AMD, parts of the macula get thinner with age and accumulations of extracellular material between Bruch’s membrane and the RPE, known as drusen, increase in number and volume, leading to a progressive loss of central vision, typically in both eyes. Global sales of the two leading wet AMD therapies were in excess of 
$10 billion in 2019. Nearly all cases of wet AMD eventually will develop the underlying atrophic AMD if the newly formed blood vessels are treated correctly. There are currently no 
U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), or 
European Medicines Agency, approved treatment options available for patients with atrophic AMD.

Dip Buying in 2021 Has Consistently Paid-Off, is it Different this Time?

Posted on by Admin 


	Image Credit: Pixabay (Pexels)

Will the Latest 2021 Stock Retrenchment Be a Variant from Previous Dips?

 

Greed has been rewarded in 2021.

Eight of the last nine market dips have been undone with more buying and higher prices. The ninth, we’re in the midst of right now. This year’s dips have not been huge; buyers came in early before a high percentage of gains had a chance to be erased. Dip-buyers have been rewarded. Does this latest dip represent an opportunity to commit more to the market? Or is it the beginning of a larger fall-off? This is what many investors are deciphering right now. Let’s look at what we know.

 

 

Last week’s holiday-shortened trading saw stocks fall, with the S&P 500 declining 1.89%, the DOW Industrials fell 2.02%, and the Russell 2000 Index which had been the outperformer in November fell off 3.83%.  If 2021 maintains its current pattern, this decline will soon be replaced by higher price levels and new records.

 

 

In the past, money flow from investors into markets often was the result of chasing momentum – buying when stocks are rising, selling when falling. Cash would flow into stocks and equity funds, at times with a frenzy, at a market peak. Conversely, sell-offs were met with further selling until the move exhausted itself. The overall market behavior has been different over the past 18-22 months and it has taken on a pattern worth understanding, especially that which has been happening since the beginning of this year.

 

 

Sell-offs or retrenchments this year have come about largely from Covid 19 related news. Surges in cases, the arrival of the Delta variant, and the most recent sell-off with the Omicron variant. Strong rallies have come from good news, including the expanded roll-out of vaccinations, travel accelerating, and case numbers coming down.

Investors caught on to what is working, causing the market to take on a pattern where it has only been sinking single digits (<10%) before buyers committed more money. With this, the question is whether the news that brought it down in recent days will become an economy (and market) killer. This market mover is once again Covid-19 related. As with the past, there is no level of certainty what havoc a virus or variant of a virus (Omicron) may produce. However, we know more about the overall coronavirus than we did yesterday, last month, and at any time last year. If the past experience is any indicator, the odds are decent that this won’t cause a killer blow to the economy, especially since early reports are that this is not as deadly as earlier strains.

 

Take-Away

The “buy the dip” strategy has paid off this year. For now, investors have been paid by injecting more cash into their positions each time there is a one-week price drop. Interestingly, all of the opportunities have been at higher and higher averages. This time may be different, but there isn’t any obvious reason to believe it will be.

As measured by the S&P 500, Dow Industrials, and Russell Small-Cap index, the market dropped last week. We will soon know whether the trend continues and 9 out of 9 sell-offs quickly recover or if this will become a deviation from the trend.

Omicron Variant Highlights Long-Term Vaccination Needs

Robert LeBoyer, Vice President, Research Analyst, Life Sciences, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

Refer to end of report for Analyst Certification & Disclosures

Refer to the company pages linked in the report below for research reports and company specific disclosures.

Omicron Variant Causes New Concerns. On November 26, the World Health Organization met to discuss a new variant of the virus that causes COVID-19. The variant, now known as Omicron (previously B1.1.359 or the South African variant), has led to travel restrictions and stricter border controls in several counties. Omicron contains over 30 mutational changes in the spike protein targeted by current vaccines, raising concerns over vaccine efficacy. The emergence of new variants is consistent with our expectations for COVID-19 and our view that new vaccines will be needed.

We Believe New Vaccines Will Be Necessary We have expected the current vaccines to bring the pandemic under control, but have questioned the breadth of long-term protection they would provide. Viruses often have genetic variations that cause new strains to emerge over time. We have compared this to the influenza virus, for which a new vaccine is required every year.

COVAXIN Could Be An Strong Option As COVID-19 Vaccination Becomes Routine Ocugen (OCGN) has Phase 3 data for approval of COVAXIN, a vaccine developed with classic killed-virus technology. COVAXIN gives a broad antibody response against multiple epitopes (regions) of the virus, and has data showing protection including variants. Covaxin has a long half-life at refrigerated temperatures and does not need to be frozen. We believe these are some of the technological and practical considerations that could make it a strong option.

Cocrystal Is Developing Two Protease Inhibitors Against The Virus Cocrystal (COCP) is using its proprietary RNA technology to develop a protease inhibitor that could block an enzyme needed for the virus to reproduce. This is an early step in the viral life cycle that would eliminate the virus before it could cause symptoms or be transmitted to others. A formulation for inhaled delivery is expected to begin clinical trials in 2022, followed by an oral formulation later in 2022.

Conclusion: Viruses typically mutate over time and new strains are to be expected. Omicron is the latest of several strains that have been emerging in various regions around the world. We believe vaccination against COVID-19 will become routine practice and require new products. We are reiterating our Outperform ratings on OCGN and COCP, two companies developing vaccines for the coming year and long term use.

COVID-19 Variant Causes New Fears On November 26, the World Health Organization officials met to discuss a new variant of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. Concern over this variant, now known as the Omicron variant (previously B.1.1.359 or the South African variant) has led to travel restrictions and stricter border controls in several counties.  

The Omicron strain contains over 30 mutational changes in the spike protein that the current vaccines were developed to recognize. This has led to concern that the variant may not recognized by the immune system in vaccinated people, and may cause break-though symptoms and lack of  protection. Omicron contains variations that are found in the Alpha and Delta variants, indicating that it may have been a more recent mutation.

We Have Always Expected New Vaccines To Be Needed  The current messenger RNA vaccines were first approved under Emergency Use  Authorizations. While we always believed they provided sufficient efficacy to end pandemic lockdown and control the pandemic, the durability of the response and efficacy against variants and future outbreaks was unknown.

The current vaccines were developed against a protein on the viral surface, known as the spike protein. Most viral spike proteins are subject to genetic variation and change over time. This is known as “genetic drift” and is one of the reasons that new influenza vaccines are needed every year. Large variations are known as “genetic shift” and have less cross-reactivity and less recognition by the immune system. Variants that result from genetic shift cause more severe symptoms and mortality.

Virologist have long predicted that the pandemic would be controlled, but the virus would remain in circulation throughout the world.   New variants could emerge over time, with  resistant strains that could avoid the immunity from vaccines. We continue to believe new vaccines  are needed for long-term protection, with routine vaccinations/boosters becoming part of standard medical practice.

COVAXIN Would Fit Well With The Shift To Routine Vaccination Programs  Ocugen has in-licensed COVAXIN, a vaccine against the SARS-CoV-2 virus made using using classic killed-virus methodology. This is an older technology that has been used to produce many anti-viral vaccines over the past decades. Covaxin produces a immune response against multiple regions of the entire virus, in contrast to the more specific spike protein in the current vaccines. The COVAXIN immune response includes recognition of regions that are highly conserved and not subject to genetic variation over time. The Phase 3 trial was conducted in India at a time when the Delta virus was circulating, and has shown efficacy against it and other variants.

In addition to its efficacy and differentiated immune response, COVAXIN only requires refrigerated storage. It has a long shelf life that makes it suitable for distribution to doctor’s offices and clinical settings that do not have capacity for vaccines that must be kept frozen. This fits with current medical practice and is less expensive to distribute than a frozen product.

Ocugen has been in discussions with the FDA for US approval and submitted an application for approval in Canada. Marketing approval will require a bridging study to show that the immune response in patients vaccinated in US today is the same as the response seen in the Phase 3 trial population. No endpoints to confirm efficacy or safety are needed.

An IND was submitted to begin the bridging study in October. An IND typically becomes effective in 30 days, however, Ocugen received notification of a “Clinical Hold” in November. This will delay the start of the trial. No reasons were given, and the company is awaiting comments from the FDA. We had allowed long timeframes for approval, so this delay to the start of the trial does not affect our valuation.

Cocrystal Is Developing Two Protease Inhibitors Against the Virus  Cocrystal is using its proprietary RNA technology to develop two protease inhibitors that could block an enzyme needed for the virus to reproduce inside an infected cell. These drugs act on an early step in the viral life cycle. This would eliminate or reduce the quantity of virus in the patient, preventing symptoms and transmission to the surrounding environment. Drugs based on protease inhibition have been successful in HIV, hepatitis, and other viral diseases. 

The first product, CDI-45205, is a protease inhibitor that uses intranasal/pulmonary delivery that is expected to begin Phase 1/2 studies in 2022. An orally administered version is expected to begin later in 2022.

Cocrystal Will Present Data At The WAC COVID-19 Conference.   Cocrystal’s President and Co-CEO, Dr. Sam Lee, has been invited to present data from the COVID-19 program at the World Antiviral Conference. This scientific meeting will feature the foremost experts in research, clinical practice, government regulation and policy. The conference will held in San Diego on November 30 to December 2, with Dr. Lee’s presentation scheduled for December 1 at 11:55 PST.    

Conclusion:  The emergence of new strains of SARS-CoV-2 is consistent with expectations from virologists and characteristic of viruses in the SARS family.   The full genetic sequence of the Omicron variant is expected to take several weeks to determine.  Further information about the variant’s transmission, resilience to the immune system, and severity of infection may become available at that time.  We believe this new variant is consistent with the need for new vaccines for COVID-19, and reiterate our Outperform ratings on OCGN and COCP.
