Corporate Presentation summary
17 Dec, 2025Company evolution and scientific foundation
Originated from discovery of cardiosphere-derived cells (CDCs) at Johns Hopkins in 2004, with key clinical and preclinical milestones over 20 years.
Developed Deramiocel, a cellular therapy for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), and StealthX exosome platform for drug delivery.
Built an extensive IP portfolio with ~150 patents and established in-house GMP manufacturing.
Secured commercial partnerships with Nippon Shinyaku for U.S. and Japan distribution.
Uplisted to NASDAQ in 2014 and maintains a strong leadership team with deep industry experience.
Deramiocel DMD program and clinical data
Deramiocel is an allogeneic CDC therapy with orphan drug and advanced therapy designations in the U.S. and Europe.
Phase 2 HOPE-2 trial showed statistically significant slowing of DMD progression in both skeletal and cardiac function, with favorable safety profile.
3-year open-label extension data demonstrated 99% slowing of cardiac and 52% slowing of skeletal disease progression compared to external controls.
Phase 3 HOPE-3 trial fully enrolled, topline data expected Q4 2025; FDA alignment allows data submission to current BLA.
Manufacturing process enables multi-dose, cryopreserved product; FDA completed pre-license inspection in June 2025.
Financials and commercial outlook
Cash balance of $123 million as of June 30, 2025, with runway into Q4 2026.
Eligible for $80 million milestone at U.S. approval and up to $605 million in sales-based milestones from NS Pharma.
Potential for $150 million from sale of a priority review voucher if received.
Annual revenue estimates could exceed $1.5 billion with small market penetration; pricing targeted similar to exon skipping therapies.
Commercial partnerships provide 30-50% of product revenue in the U.S. and double-digit share in Japan.
