The title of Dr. Kilcoyne’s abstract is, "Placental-Derived Mesenchymal-Like Adherent Stromal Cell (MLASC) Therapy Results in Alterations in Gene and Protein Signatures Associated with Inflammation and Fistula Formation in Patients with Crohn’s Disease."

"We have had a long interest in the role of cell therapy in autoimmune diseases and look forward to presenting our MLASC data in Crohn’s disease at the upcoming ASGCT (Free ASGCT Whitepaper) annual meeting," said Robert J. Hariri, M.D., Ph.D., Celularity’s CEO, Chairman and Founder.

"In light of our clinical observations described in a previous release, these data provide a possible mechanism of action leverageable in a broad range of immune-mediated diseases and will help guide the investment decision to progress our novel genetically modified allogeneic placental-derived MLASC, APPL-01, in Crohn’s disease. We believe this cell therapy candidate could make a significant difference as a therapeutic option for patients. Celularity’s unique technology platform is grounded in our use of the post-partum placenta as the source of cells and biomaterials, enabling independent but complementary product opportunities in cellular and regenerative medicine. We’re moving forward with confidence regarding the potential therapeutic benefits of MLASCs as we advance the development of therapeutic options for patients," said Hariri.
