Stem Cell Medicine Licenses Exosome Technology for Treating Autism From Ramot at Tel Aviv University
MSC-exo Technology Has Potential to Treat Autism Using Novel Intranasal Administration
Preclinical Studies Have Demonstrated a Benefit on Core Autism Symptoms
Jerusalem, Israel – Stem Cell Medicine Ltd. (SCM), a biotechnology company developing new therapies for neurological indications, including mesenchymal stem cells and anti-BMP molecules for the treatment of Multiple Sclerosis, and gene therapy for the treatment of neuropathic pain, has licensed an innovative exosomes based technology for the treatment of neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric indications, specifically, autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The treatment is based on vesicles, exosomes, derived from adult stem cells (MSC-exo) that are administered intranasally. The technology was developed by Professor Dani Offen, Sackler School of Medicine, Sagol School of Neurosciences Tel Aviv University and was licensed from Ramot, the Business Engagement Center at Tel Aviv University.

Australian TGA Approves Novartis’ Kymriah® CAR-T Therapy for Two Blood Cancers
Kymriah® (tisagenlecleucel), CAR-T therapy from Novartis, receives TGA approval for treating two aggressive blood cancers
- Kymriah® is an immunocellular therapy that is a one-time treatment manufactured individually for each patient using the patient’s own T cells, genetically reengineered and programmed to recognise and destroy cancer cells.
- Kymriah® is approved for the treatment of relapsed or refractory patients with paediatric B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) and adult diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL)[1]
- Kymriah® could be a treatment option for about 50 paediatric and young adult ALL patients and 420 adult DLBCL patients who relapse or do not respond to initial therapy[2]
- Kymriah® is the only chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapy to receive TGA approval in Australia[1]
