 Spine. OPC1 clinical development has been supported in part by a $14.3 million grant from the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (“CIRM”).  We plan to apply for additional funding from CIRM to support continued clinical development of OPC1 for the treatment of SCI when CIRM begins accepting new applications, which they have indicated they will do in Spring 2025. See “Grants from Government Entities – Grants from the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine,” below.  In December 2023, we filed an Investigational New Drug (“IND”) amendment for OPC1 as it relates to our proposed 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 subacute and chronic SCI patients. In March 2024, we received written correspondence from the FDA, advising us that due to their significant workload and conflicting PDUFA priorities at the agency, its review of our IND amendment and the DOSED study protocol was still ongoing, which remained so throughout 2024. On January 31, 2025, the FDA informed us that we could proceed with the DOSED study and shortly thereafter we announced that we were initiating the study. The study will enroll both subacute (between 21 to 42 days following injury) and chronic (between 1 to 5 years following injury) SCI patients. The DOSED study will be the first study of OPC1 to include patients with a chronic injury, a condition which comprises the majority of SCI patients. We expect DOSED will enable subsequent studies aimed to demonstrate OPC1’s ability to impact functional outcomes. UC San Diego Health, was named as the first participating site for the DOSED study. The DOSED study is expected to commence enrollment in the second quarter of 2025. See “Clinical Stage Cell Transplant Programs – OPC1,” below for additional information 

Our complete pipeline of allogeneic, or “off-the-shelf”, neurology and ophthalmic cell therapy programs currently available to us for development includes:

•OpRegen (RG6501), an allogeneic RPE cell replacement therapy currently in a Phase 2a multicenter, open-label, single arm clinical trial, the GAlette Study, being conducted by Genentech, for the treatment of GA secondary to AMD.   

•OPC1,
