Developing Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSCs) as Cell Therapeutics
Despite progress involving the use of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) within disease modeling and drug discovery applications, it will be a long path to achieve the broad-scale use of iPSC-derived cell types for use in human patients. Within a preclinical context, cell types differentiated from iPSCs are tested for their therapeutic response by using animal models. Then, clinical trials are conducted to assure that essential parameters, such as tumorigenicity, dose toxicity, and immunogenicity, are assessed before authorizing the product for use in human patients.

Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell Clinical Trials, by Disease and Country
A number of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) derived disease models have resulted in the discovery of new drugs that have been tested in iPSC-derived cells for efficacy and potential toxicities. Genome editing technologies have also added a new dimension to to the development of personalized medicine using iPSCs. In some cases, iPSC-derived cell types are being explored as novel cell therapeutics. [Read more…]
