Korea to invest 2.8 trillion in promoting bio-health sector – Korea Biomedical Review

The government unveiled its plans to invest 2.8 trillion won ($2.3 billion) in developing new key technologies to foster the bio-health industry over the next decade.

The Ministries of Health and Welfare, Science and ICT, and Trade, Industry and Energy said on Friday that two interagency projects -- new drug development and regenerative medicine technology development -- had passed the preliminary feasibility study last month.

The two national projects are part of the Bio-Health Industry Innovation Strategy announced by the government in May last year.

In pursuing new drug development as a state project, the government will provide step-by-step support, starting from basic research, going through nonclinical and clinical trials, and reaching test manufacture and mass production.

According to the viability study, the project will likely create 2.1 trillion won in industrial production for 10 years from 2021, to emerge as the largest R&D project to be conducted by the Ministry of Health and Welfare.

The three ministries said they plan to support the project by abolishing barriers as if they were one ministry. To this end, they have established a unified administrative system for the project by building up their capabilities, providing integrated consultation and support customized to the needs of universities, research institutions, and businesses.

Through the project, the government aims to develop blockbuster new drugs, each with annual sales of more than 1 trillion won ($830 million) over the next decade while enhancing the pharmaceutical industry's competitiveness.

Concerning the development of regenerative medicine technology, the government will provide support throughout the period, from the core basics and the original technology to the clinical stage of therapeutic and therapeutic technologies for regenerative medicines.

The field of regenerative medicine, despite expectations as a future medical technology, has experienced limitations in developing new technologies because of the legal system.

After the National Assembly passed the Act on Safety and Support for Advanced Regenerative Medicine and Advanced Biopharmaceuticals last year, research and development conditions and ecosystems for the regenerative medicine field have made marked improvement.

Encouraged by the brighter prospect, the government has decided to invest 595.5 billion won in this area for 10 years from 2021.

It plans to focus on strengthening the technological competitiveness of stem cell therapy products and core technologies with high potential for future growth, such as gene therapy and tissue engineering materials.

"Through the development of the bio-health industry, we will develop innovative new drugs to treat rare, incurable diseases, protect health sovereignty through localization of pharmaceuticals and medical technologies, and strengthen public health," said Im In-taek, director-general of the Health Industry Policy Bureau in the health and welfare affairs ministry.

Based on the results of the recent preliminary feasibility study, the three related ministries will go all out for the project's success, Im added.

Sernova Highlights Positive Results Presented at the American Diabetes Association’s Virtual 80th Scientific Sessions – TheNewswire.ca

LONDON, ONTARIO - TheNewswire - June 18, 2020 - Sernova Corp. (TSXV:SVA) (OTC:SEOVF) (FSE:PSH), a clinical-stage regenerative medicine therapeutics company, highlights positive results from its submitted abstract entitled "Clinical Validation of the Implanted Pre-Vascularized Cell Pouch(TM) as a Viable, Safe Site for Diabetes Cell Therapy," selected for presentation at the American Diabetes Association's (ADA) 80th Scientific Sessions held virtually June 12-16, 2020.

"Sernova was honored that its abstract was selected under peer review to be presented at the prestigious ADA Scientific Sessions. The findings reported in diabetic patients, demonstrate that human donor islets transplanted into Sernova's Cell Pouch consistently demonstrate islet survival and the ability to produce the array of hormones required to treat diabetes," said Dr. Philip Toleikis, President and CEO of Sernova.

The following provides the background of our scientific presentation:

- Cellular transplantation therapy has the potential to treat severe, chronic diseases such as Type 1 Diabetes (T1D). The transplantation site and device approach are major factors influencing successful clinical outcomes;

- With new cell-based emerging technologies, there continues to be a need to find a safe, retrievable, biologically compatible device for cellular transplantation and we believe Sernova's Cell Pouch System may provide such a solution;

- The transplantation of insulin-producing islets is a cellular replacement therapy for severe T1D in patients who experience life-threatening severe hypoglycemia unawareness events;

- In this clinical indication, Sernova has conducted a physician sponsored first-in-human study in Canada and currently has an ongoing company-sponsored Phase I/II human clinical study at the University of Chicago. In both clinical studies, patients with T1D were implanted with both sentinel (small devices removed to assess cell survival) and larger therapeutic devices, anywhere between 1 to 6 months;

- After being placed on immunosuppression, islets were isolated from donor pancreata and transplanted into patients within the device chambers. When possible, a pre-transplant sample of islets was saved for comparison to post-explant Cell Pouch islets; and

- Cell Pouches were explanted from patients, anywhere between 14-90 days post-transplant. The Cell Pouches were prepared, and sections were stained and imaged, and then reviewed by an independent clinical pathologist to assess the transplanted tissue for micro-vessel formation and vascularization; the presence of islets with insulin, C-peptide, and other endocrine hormones (such as glucagon and somatostatin); and exocrine tissue (such as pancreatic ductal tissue).

The data presented clinically demonstrate that the vascularized Cell Pouch provides a consistently safe and biologically suitable, retrievable environment for the transplantation and survival of functional islets. Specific findings based on a detailed histopathological analysis of nine Sernova Cell Pouches explanted from patients with T1D diabetes include:

- Explanted Cell Pouches show abundant, viable, organized islet cells intimately associated with blood vessels within a natural collagen matrix following transplantation without obvious rejection or infection;

- 100% showed present or abundant blood vessels;

- 89% showed present or abundant insulin;

- 78% showed present or abundant endocrine cells;

- 100% showed present or abundant ductal tissue;

- Islet cells required to control diabetes within the Cell Pouches consistently express insulin and other endocrine hormones, such as glucagon, somatostatin, and C-peptide, when identified histologically;

- Pre-transplant islet samples that show strongly expressed insulin, as well as other endocrine markers, were similarly identified in the explanted Cell Pouches following transplant; and

- The amount of islet/exocrine tissue within pre-transplanted samples was similar to that found in the Cell Pouch following transplantation.

In summary, the transplanted samples, when explanted and examined, demonstrate healthy, surviving islets with multiple cell types within the islets capable of producing the hormones that control blood sugar levels when housed in the vascularized tissue matrix of the Cell Pouch. Exocrine ductal tissue, when transplanted, also survived. The findings demonstrate the pre-transplant samples are consistent with the histology observed upon explantation of the Cell Pouch at different time points. These clinical findings demonstrate that the Cell Pouch is a viable, safe site for diabetes cell therapy.

Dr. Toleikis said, "The positive results reported in patients in this diabetes indication, implanted with Sernova's Cell Pouch and transplanted with islets, continue to validate our Cell Pouch System cell therapy therapeutics approach. Within the emerging cell therapy field, Sernova, with its advancing cell therapies including locally immune protected stem cell-derived cells, continues to position itself as a leader in the development of a 'functional cure' for all patients with diabetes and other chronic diseases."

ABOUT SERNOVA'S CLINICAL TRIAL

Sernova is conducting a Phase I/II non-randomized, unblinded, single-arm, company-sponsored trial at the University of Chicago to assess the safety and tolerability of islet transplantation into the company's patented Cell Pouch in diabetic subjects with hypoglycemia unawareness. The secondary objective is to assess efficacy through a series of defined measures. Patients enrolled in Sernova's clinical trial are incapable of producing c-peptide, a biomarker for insulin produced by islet cells.

Eligible subjects are implanted with Cell Pouches. Following the development of vascularized tissue chambers within the Cell Pouch, subjects are then stabilized on immunosuppression, and a dose of purified islets, under strict release criteria, are transplanted into the Cell Pouch.

A sentinel pouch is removed for an early assessment of the islet transplant. Subjects are followed for additional safety and efficacy measures for approximately six months. At this point, a decision is made with regard to the transplant of a second islet dose with subsequent safety and efficacy follow up. Patients are then further followed for one year to assess longer-term safety and efficacy.

For more information on this clinical trial, please visit http://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03513939. For more information on enrollment and recruitment details, please visit http://www.pwitkowski.org/sernova.

ABOUT SERNOVA'S CELL POUCH SYSTEM

The Cell Pouch, as part of the Cell Pouch System, is a novel, proprietary, scalable, implantable macro- encapsulation device solution designed for the long-term survival and function of therapeutic cells. The device upon implantation is designed to incorporate with tissue, forming highly vascularized tissue chambers for the transplantation and function of therapeutic cells, which then release proteins and hormones as required to treat disease. The Cell Pouch, along with therapeutic cells, has been shown to provide long-term safety and efficacy in small and large animal models of diabetes and has been proven to provide a biologically compatible environment for insulin-producing cells in humans in a Canadian first-in-human study. Sernova is currently conducting a Phase I/II study at the University of Chicago.

ABOUT SERNOVA CORP.

Sernova Corp is developing regenerative medicine therapeutic technologies using a medical device and immune protected therapeutic cells (i.e., human donor cells, corrected human cells and stem cell-derived cells) to improve the treatment and quality of life of people with chronic metabolic diseases such as insulin-dependent diabetes, blood disorders including hemophilia, and other diseases treated through replacement of proteins or hormones missing or in short supply within the body.
