About UM171
UM171 is a proprietary molecule that leads to specific epigenetic modifications which have a profound impact on hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) self-renewal. UM171 has been cited in several scientific publications and has become the standard for HSC expansion in Cell & Gene Therapy. ExCellThera has developed commercial GMP grade UM171 which can be integrated into the manufacturing process of various cell and gene therapy products as a reagent and is supported by a Type II Drug Master File (DMF) filed with the FDA. With UM171’s broad range of use, ExCellThera is partnering with select partners for the use under license of UM171 to enhance Cell & Gene Therapy protocols by expanding HSCs and protecting them against process exhaustion and damage.
About ECT-001
ECT-001 cell therapy combines proprietary molecule UM171, and an optimized culture system. ECT‑001 has been evaluated in nearly 100 adult and pediatric patients with severe blood disorders in several clinical trials in the United States and Canada (with additional clinical trials in Europe expected soon). ECT-001 cell therapy has received orphan drug designation and regenerative medicine advanced therapy (RMAT) designation from the FDA as well as orphan medicinal product designation, advanced therapy medicinal product (ATMP) classification and priority medicines (PRIME) designation from the EMA.
About ExCellThera
ExCellThera is a world leader in blood stem cell expansion and rejuvenation.
ExCellThera’s lead proprietary molecule, UM171, has become the standard for hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) expansion in Cell & Gene Therapy. UM171’s first-in-class mechanism of action has been shown to expand and rejuvenate HSCs, and to counteract exhaustion from culture and gene modification which represent important limitations in cell & gene therapies. ExCellThera has developed commercial GMP grade UM171 which can be integrated into the manufacturing process of various cell and gene therapy products as a reagent and is supported by a Type II Drug Master File (DMF) filed with the FDA.
In addition to ECT-001 cell therapy, ExCellThera also has a pre-clinical pipeline of next generation cell & gene therapies in adjacent fields of use.
