As previously reported, Lineage Cell Therapeutics, Inc. (the “ Company”) applied for a Clinical Trial (CLIN2) award (the “ CIRM Grant”) from the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (“ CIRM”) in June 2025 to support continued clinical development of OPC1 for the treatment of spinal cord injuries (“ SCI”). On November 28, 2025, the Company elected to withdraw its application for the CIRM Grant following comments to the application received by the Company from CIRM on November 24, 2025. There were no specific content deficiencies identified by CIRM in the Company’s grant application, and based on discussions between the Company and CIRM representatives held on November 25, 2025, the Company intends to respond to the feedback it received from CIRM on its application and submit a revised application in the next available CIRM grant application cycle, currently scheduled for January 2026. Neither the withdrawal of the Company’s current application nor the planned resubmission of a revised application impact the Company’s current and planned development of OPC1 or the ongoing DOSED (Delivery of Oligodendrocyte Progenitor Cells for Spinal Cord Injury: Evaluation of a Novel Device) clinical study to evaluate the safety and utility of a novel spinal cord delivery device designed to administer OPC1 to the spinal parenchyma in both subacute (between 21 to 42 days following injury) and chronic (between 1 to 5 years following injury) SCI participants.
