Kadimastem: History & Way Forward

AstroRx ®

Astrocytes- Cell Therapy Treatment for Neurodegenerative Diseases

ALS is a fatal rare disorder with no cure ALS– Market and Facts

  • Death of motor neurons
  • Progressive loss of muscle control leads to eventual death
  • 90-95% sporadic and 5-10% familial (C9orf72, hSOD1, TDP-43, FUS)
  • Disease onset 45-65 years, survival from onset of 2-5 years

• Current FDA approved treatments are Rilutek, Radicava and RELYVRIO with modest effect

  • Around 450,0001 ALS patients estimated worldwide, 30,000 patients in the US2
  • Global ALS treatment market valued at US\$300 million in 20233

North America is the largest market, with a share about 60%, followed by Japan, and Europe, both have a share over 20 percent. Estimate to reach in 2030: \$520.8 M3

US ALS Healthcare costs:

Close to \$1.02 billion annually direct and indirect associated costs4 .

Effect of AstroRx® on rat SOD1 G93A ALS model In Pre-Clinical Trials

Rat hSOD1 ALS Model:

Study measurements

  • Survival
  • Grip strength
  • Rotarod (ambulation)
  • Muscle weight loss
  • Paralysis (neurological score)

AstroRx® cells were injected at day 50 and 70 of life

Intrathecal injection of AstroRx® (Lumbar puncture) between L5-L6 w/o immunosuppression

hSOD1G93A high copy number rat (ALS model)

AstroRx® Prolong Survival of hSOD1 Rats

  • Significant delay in disease onset in AstroRx® treated rats (P=0.0001)
  • Prolonged survival in AstroRx® treated rats

AstroRx® Mechanism of Action

First In Human Clinical Trials Using AstroRx®

Cell Therapy Using AstroRx® - The Process

AstroRx® Phase 1/2a Status Good Clinical Safety Profile

Study Status:

  • 5 patients in Cohort A and 5 patients in Cohort B completed 12 Month follow up.
  • Cohorts C&D were discontinued following Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) recommendation due to COVID-19 pandemic

Safety Results:

  • Good safety profile
  • No treatment-related serious adverse events
  • No dose-limiting toxicities were reported

AstroRx® 3-month Follow-up Results Demonstrated a Clinically Meaningful Decline in Disease Progression

Clinical results are consistent between Cohorts A and B

ALSFRS-R slope difference between 3 months pre- and post-treatment in Cohorts A and B

* p=0.0396, **p=0.0023, *** p=0.0004 (MMRM analysis)

ALSFRS-R is a Clinically Accepted Measure of Disease State

AstroRx® Efficacy Among ALS Rapid Progressors (3-month Follow-up)

80% of rapidly progressing patients responded to treatment of AstroRx®

ALSFRS-R Slope Analysis

* p=0.0003 (MMRM analysis)

  • Rapid progressors are defined as patients who deteriorate at least 1.1 points of ALSFRS-R per month in the run-in period
  • Analysis of rapid progressors is particularly important since the inclusion of this sub-population of patients in clinical trials in ALS increases the likelihood of demonstrating a drug effect
  • Responders are defined as showing improvement of at least 25% in the ALSFRS-R rate of decline between pre- and post-treatment periods

AstroRx® study: 1-year Follow-up Results

The results support our plan for a further clinical trial with repeated intrathecal administrations of AstroRx®, in order to prolong the clinical effect seen by a single dose

  • Safe and well tolerated in both treatment doses over 12-months
  • No treatment-related serious adverse events (SAEs) nor dose-limiting toxicities were reported

Functional Islet Cells - Potential Cure for Insulin Dependent Diabetes

Insulin Dependent Diabetes - Market and Facts

537 million adults are living with diabetes worldwide – 1 in 10*

Highly demanding disease management. Insulin injection treatment does not prevent long term complications**

In 2022, there were 8.75 million people living with type 1 diabetes globally. 1.52 million of these people were under 20 years old***

Diabetes was responsible for an estimated USD 966 billion in global health expenditure in 2021. This represents a 316% increase over the last 15 years*

Unmet Need in Insulin Dependent Diabetes

Insulin Therapy and glucose Islet Transplantation management are not a cure Restoring patient's ability to naturally

Even with strict insulin treatment regimens, patients experience:

  • Frequent episodes of severe, undetected hypoglycemia;
  • Severe glycemic lability
  • Progressive diabetic complications: Neuropathies Heart Disease Retinopathy Kidney failure Stroke

produce insulin

  • Healthy and functional islet cells can produce and secrete insulin in a regulated manner
  • Cadaveric donor islet cell therapy is a safe and clinically validated treatment for Insulin-Dependent Diabetes*
  • Patients treated achieved Insulin independence for ~2 years following treatment**
  • Main challenges remaining: a severe shortage of donor islet cells and immune suppression that is unhealthy and not always prevent immune rejection

What Happens in Diabetes Type 1

Cure for Insulin Dependent Diabetes using IsletRx

Our Treatment = Cure

IsletRx - Our Solution

Functional pancreatic islets derived from hES cells that produce and secrete insulin and glucagon glucose dependently

  • Overcome donor tissue availability shortage
  • Replace malfunctioning patient islet cells
  • Maintain continuous balanced glucose levels

• Show long term functionality, protected from host immune response, without immune suppression drugs - in development

IsletRx - Preclinical Demonstration of Efficacy

IsletRx treated diabetic mice (STZ) demonstrated balanced and normal blood glucose levels

  • Long-term therapeutic effect was achieved in an immunocompetent animal model (C57BL/6 mice)
  • IsletRx cells well protected from host immune system

IsletRx - Production, Selection and Encapsulation

Large Scale Production:

Scalable 3D bioreactor production

Selection & Enrichment:

Proprietary technology (IP) enables islet cell enrichment and selection, achieving well characterized cell identity

• Novel CD26-/CD49a+ signature cell surface markers are used to identify and select highly functional insulin producing cells, thereby increasing the probability of clinical efficacy

Unique Microencapsulation Technology: Demonstrate positive results in protecting IsletRx cells from host immune system response, overcoming a major challenge in allogeneic cell therapy. Other macroencapsulation technologies are tested concomitantly.
