Fate Therapeutics Announces FDA Clearance of IND Amendment for Clinical Development of PROHEMA(R) in Pediatric Patients
GlobeNewswire - Wed Apr 23, 6:01AM CDT
Fate Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq:FATE), a biopharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery and development of adult stem cell modulators to treat orphan diseases, announced today that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cleared its Investigational New Drug Application (IND) amendment to evaluate PROHEMA in pediatric patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation for the treatment of hematologic malignancies. The FDA's clearance of the IND amendment allows the Company to expand its clinical investigation of PROHEMA, which to date has only been administered to adults, in pediatric patients as young as one year of age. The Company plans to initiate enrollment of the "PROMPT" (PROHEMA for the treatment of hematologic Malignancies in PediaTric patients undergoing single umbilical cord blood transplantation) study, which is designed to enroll up to 18 patients, between the ages of 1 and 18, at three leading U.S. pediatric transplant centers in mid-2014.
Fate Therapeutics Secures U.S. Patent for Class of Small Molecule Modulators Key to the Development of iPSC-Based Therapeutics
GlobeNewswire - Thu Apr 10, 6:01AM CDT
Fate Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq:FATE), a biopharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery and development of adult stem cell modulators to treat orphan diseases, announced today that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) has issued Patent No. 8,691,573 entitled "Stem Cell Cultures." The newly issued patent claims a class of small molecule inhibitors of Rho-associated kinase (ROCK) that are crucial to the therapeutic application of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs). Modulators belonging to the patented class have been shown to be necessary for the high-throughput derivation of transgene-free hiPSCs, and for the maintenance, survival and genomic stability of hiPSCs in culture. Fate Therapeutics holds an exclusive license from The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) to the patent in all commercial fields.

Fate Therapeutics Announces Observed Effects of Pharmacologic Modulation on T Cell Compartment From Its Phase 1b Study of PROHEMA(R)
GlobeNewswire - Wed Feb 26, 6:03AM CST
Fate Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq:FATE), a biopharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery and development of adult stem cell modulators to treat orphan diseases, announced today the release of new data on the observed effects of ex vivo pharmacologic modulation on CD8+ T cells and immune reconstitution from its previously-completed Phase 1b clinical trial of PROHEMA (16, 16-dimethyl prostaglandin E2, or dmPGE2, modulated cord blood) in adult patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation for hematologic malignancy (the ProHema-01 trial). Researchers affiliated with Harvard Medical School performed an analysis of the CD8+ T cell compartment using patient samples from the ProHema-01 trial. At Day 100, subjects who received PROHEMA and an unmanipulated cord blood unit (n=12) showed a two-fold increase in the percentage of naïve and early memory T cell fraction within the CD8+ T cell compartment as compared to subjects who received two unmanipulated cord blood units (n=9). These naïve and early memory CD8+ T cell populations are believed to play a key role in promoting immune reconstitution and viral immunity following cord blood transplantation. These findings were recently published in Blood Cancer Journal (Li, L. et. al. Blood Cancer Journal 2014).
