Global Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT) Market : Key Developments
On June 19, 2023, Kindred Group plc, a company that offers online services, launched a new campaign with Matchis, the Dutch Centre for Stem Cell Donors, to generate more awareness for stem cell transplantation and the shortage of donors.
On January 23, 2023, Researchers at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) developed a custom-built application to automate the determination of engraftment, a key outcome after hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). The application supersedes a tedious manual process and, at the same time, substantially improves the accuracy of reported hematopoietic cell transplant engraftments.
On January 4, 2023, Jasper Therapeutics, Inc., announced that the European Medicines Agency (EMA) Committee for Orphan Medicinal Products (COMP) has granted orphan drug designation to briquilimab (formerly known as JSP191), a monoclonal antibody targeting the CD117 (stem cell factor) receptor, for conditioning treatment prior to HCT. Previously, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted orphan drug designation to briquilimab in HCT, as well as rare pediatric disease designation for the treatment of severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID).
In June 2022, Veloxis Pharmaceuticals, a specialty pharmaceutical company, announced the dosing of the first patient by its partner, Xenikos B.V., a privately held biotechnology company, in a pivotal Phase 3 clinical study [NCT04934670] designed to evaluate T-Guard versus ruxolitinib for the treatment of patients with Grade III or IV steroid-refractory acute graft-versus-host disease (SR-aGVHD) following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (allo-HSCT). T-Guard is currently being developed by Xenikos B.V.
