Neuralstem, Inc. : Sixteenth Patient Dosed In Neuralstem ALS Stem Cell Trial
This is great because so far is safe for people, and trials will continue.
Neuralstem, Inc. : Sixteenth Patient Dosed In Neuralstem ALS Stem Cell Trial 06/19/2012 | 09:20am ROCKVILLE, Md., June 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Neuralstem, Inc. (NYSE MKT: CUR) announced that the first patient to receive stem cell transplantation in both regions of the spinal cord has been treated in the ongoing Phase I trial of its spinal cord neural stem cells in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS or Lou Gehrig's disease). This is also the 16th patient to be treated in the trial altogether and the first patient returning to the trial for a second treatment. In this treatment, the patient received five injections in the cervical (upper back) region of the spinal cord, in addition to the ten he received previously in the lumbar (lower back) region of the spine, for a total of 15 injections. This is the highest number of injections in the trial so far. Patient 16 is also the first patient in the world to receive stem cell transplants in both the lumbar and cervical regions of the spinal cord in an FDA-approved trial. Two additional previously-treated patients are expected to return to the trial this summer in this cohort, provided they continue to meet the inclusion requirements. The trial is taking place at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta, Georgia. read: http://www.4-traders.com/NEURALSTEM-...rial-14376105/ |
