Stem cell treatment for ALS gets clinical trial greenlight from FDA

Posted: Published on April 27th, 2014

(Reuters) - BrainStorm Cell Therapeutics said the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the start of a mid-stage clinical trial of its adult stem cell treatment for patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The Phase II trial will be launched initially at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston and the University of Massachusetts Memorial Hospital in Worcester. Dana-Farber Cancer Institute's Connell O'Reilly Cell Manipulation Core Facility will manufacture BrainStorm's NurOwn cells for these two clinical sites. The trial will also be conducted at the Mayo Clinic, the Israel-based company said on Sunday. The trials are expected to start soon. "Today's announcement represents the most significant milestone BrainStorm has achieved to date," the company's president, Chaim Lebovits, said. This trial will be the first Phase II double-blinded stem cell study to be conducted for ALS, he added. ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease, is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. BrainStorm's Phase II trial is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of transplantation of the stem cells in 48 ALS patients. The cells will be administered via intramuscular and intrathecal injection. Patients will be followed monthly for three months before transplantation and … Continue reading →

Rise In Women Taking On Motherhood Alone

Posted: Published on April 27th, 2014

By Emma Birchley, Sky News Correspondent A growing number of single women are seeking fertility treatment as the route to motherhood. For those unable to find a partner, IVF and donor insemination are increasingly being seen as a viable option. Lisa Mead, who is 41, first considered adopting in 2006 but when the process was held up, decided to try for her own child, despite not being in a relationship. She is now mother to Lennie, who is two, and five-month-old Bebe, both conceived with the help of a donor from America. "All the women I know who have gone down this path, I don't think that any of them imagined they would be in that situation," she said. "They all imagined they would meet a nice man and it would be how it would pan out how you expect ... you get married, you have kids. "I don't think anybody has gone about it because they don't want a man around and a lot of women are hoping a nice man will turn up now the children are there, but the pressure is off to find that person in the time you have got in order to become a … Continue reading →

Attacking cancer indirectly: Generating immunity against tumor vessel protein in mouse study

Posted: Published on April 27th, 2014

Sometimes a full-on assault isn't the best approach when dealing with a powerful enemy. A more effective approach, in the long run, may be to target the support system replenishing the supplies that keep your foe strong and ready for battle. A group of researchers from the Abramson Cancer Center and the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania is pursuing this strategy by employing a novel DNA vaccine to kill cancer, not by attacking tumor cells, but targeting the blood vessels that keep them alive. The vaccine also indirectly creates an immune response to the tumor itself, amplifying the attack by a phenomenon called epitope spreading. The results of the study were published this month in the Journal of Clinical Investigation. Previous studies have targeted tumor angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels that feed the tumor cells). However, this approach can also interfere with normal processes involved in wound healing and development. Penn researchers avoided this pitfall by designing a DNA vaccine that specifically targets TEM1 (tumor endothelial marker 1), a protein that is overexpressed in tumors and poorly expressed in normal tissues. "We demonstrated that by targeting TEM1, our vaccine can decrease tumor vascularization, increase … Continue reading →
