Pluristem Approved to Extend Phase II Study of PLX-PAD Cells to South Korea
HAIFA, Israel, Nov. 13, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. (PSTI) (TASE:PLTR), a leading developer of placenta-based cell therapies, announced today that the South Korean Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS), formerly the Korea Food & Drug Administration (KFDA), has approved Pluristem's Investigational New Drug (IND) Application to conduct a Phase II study using PLX-PAD cells for the treatment of Intermittent Claudication (IC), a subset of peripheral artery disease (PAD). The IND approved by the MFDS mirrors INDs already approved by regulators in the USA, Germany and Israel. South Korea will be the fourth country participating in this multi-national trial involving the use of PLX-PAD in IC. CHA Bio&Diostech; Co., Ltd. (KOSDAQ:KS), Pluristem's South Korean partner, will fund the trial and conduct it in its healthcare facilities. "Pluristem's ability to extend our Phase II study of IC into South Korea is important for several reasons," commented Zami Aberman, Pluristem's Chairman and CEO. "Partnering with CHA Bio to conduct the clinical trial in their hospitals will accelerate the enrollment and strengthen our relationship with our South Korean partner. Additionally, Pluristem is proud of the fact that our PLX-PAD cells are the first placental-derived allogeneic cells allowed to be imported into South Korea. We at Pluristem believe this is a validation of Pluristem's expertise in cell therapy in general and PLX potential cell therapy in particular." About the Study Pluristem's Phase II study of IC is a randomized, placebo-controlled trial that will evaluate the safety and efficacy of two courses of PLX-PAD cells versus placebo, administered via intramuscular injections. The study protocol targets enrollment of 150 patients with IC: Fontaine class IIb, Rutherford category 2-3. The primary efficacy end point of the trial is the change in the maximal walking distance from baseline during an exercise treadmill test. Secondary endpoints are hemodynamic and quality of life measurements. Safety parameters are also being assessed. About Intermittent Claudication IC is a subset of PAD caused by atherosclerosis of the lower extremity arteries. IC is characterized by muscle pain, such as aching, cramping, numbness or a sense of fatigue classically in the calf muscle, which occurs during exercise, such as walking, and is relieved by a period of rest. The prevalence of IC in the United States alone is approximately 14 million patients and representing a cost of approximately $2.5 billion annually to the National Healthcare Bill (References:The SAGE Group and HCUP 2007 Inpatient Data). About CHA Bio&Diostech; CHA Bio&Diostech; Co., Ltd. is a leading biopharmaceutical company headquartered in South Korea; its R&D; focuses on stem cells, cell therapeutics, medical device, and new drug development.

Safety of Pluristem's PLX Cells Demonstrated in Pre-Clinical Pregnancy Model
HAIFA, Israel, Nov. 4, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. (PSTI) (TASE:PLTR), a leading developer of placenta-based cell therapies, announced today that its PLacental eXpanded (PLX) cells proved to be safe in an animal study assessing maternal and fetal toxicity. The study was conducted at the Charles River Laboratories, one of the world's leading contract research organizations. The results showed that the intramuscular administration of PLX-PAD cells to pregnant rats did not result in any maternal or fetal toxicity. Pluristem will pursue the clinical development of PLX-PAD cells for the indication of preeclampsia based on these results and earlier evidence that the cells were efficacious in preeclamptic animal models. "Pluristem is extremely pleased with the demonstrated safety of our PLX-PAD cells in pre-clinical models of pregnancy," said Zami Aberman, Chairman and CEO of Pluristem. "This study, together with the work performed by Dr. Brett Mitchell from Texas A&M; College of Medicine,suggesting that our PLX-PAD cells are efficacious in preeclamptic animal models, is an important milestone towards our goal of initiating clinical trials for preeclampsia." In the study, forty-four pregnant female rats were injected intramuscularly with either PLX-PAD at a dosage of 10 million cells (n=22) or cell-free placebo (n=22), on gestational day 13. Throughout the study the pregnant animals were monitored for viability status, body weight and food consumption. On gestational day 21, female rats were examined for ovarian and uterine contents and abnormalities in dams and pups. Charles River's report concluded that the IM injection of PLX-PAD cells in pregnant rats did not result in any maternal or fetal developmental toxicity. About Preeclampsia Preeclampsia is one of the most common medical complications of pregnancy, and one of the leading causes of premature births, stillbirths and early neonatal and maternal deaths. If left untreated, it can progress to eclampsia, the life-threatening occurrence of seizures during pregnancy. The only known treatment for preeclampsia is abortion or delivery. The disease occurs in previously healthy women after their 20th week of pregnancy, and signs include high blood pressure and significant amounts of protein in the urine. According to the World Health Organization, preeclampsia occurs in approximately 6--8% of pregnancies worldwide. It is estimated that preeclampsia costs the global health care system $3 billion annually.

NNS - USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN 71) Sea Trials After Refueling & Complex Overhaul [1080p]
NEWPORT NEWS, Va., Aug. 29, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Newport News Shipbuilding (NNS), a division of Huntington Ingalls Industries (NYSE:HII), redelivered the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN 71) to the U.S. Navy today. The redelivery took place following successful sea trials that tested the ship's systems after its refueling and complex overhaul (RCOH) at the shipyard. The sea trials, conducted by the U.S. Navy alongside NNS shipbuilders onboard, tested the carrier's systems and operations at sea, including high-speed operations. The trials team put the ship through a series of tests designed to prove system performance and demonstrate all the carrier's capabilities at sea. "The ship's refueling and modernization was an enormous undertaking made successful by the joint efforts of the shipyard, Navy and government team," said Chris Miner, NNS' vice president, in-service aircraft carrier programs. "Her strong performance during sea trials is a source of pride for the 4,000 shipbuilders who worked tirelessly to return Roosevelt to the Navy's operational fleet today." The RCOH process is performed only once during the ship's 50-year lifetime and involves upgrades to nearly every space and system on the ship. Tanks, the hull, shafting, propellers, rudders, piping, ventilation, electrical, combat and aviation support systems were repaired, upgraded and modernized. Work also included defueling and refueling the ship's two nuclear reactors and repairs and upgrades to the propulsion plant. NNS is the only shipyard with the skilled workforce and facilities equipped for this nearly four-year project, which was described in a 2002 Rand Study as one of the most challenging and highly industrial tasks undertaken by any organization. The fourth Nimitz-class carrier to undergo an RCOH, Roosevelt has had up to 4,000 shipbuilders assigned to her at peak manning periods. USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72) arrived at NNS in March and is currently undergoing her RCOH.- published: 03 Oct 2013

Tendon Injuries Treated With Pluristem's PLX Cells Demonstrate Favorable Properties
HAIFA, Israel, Aug. 14, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. (PSTI) (TASE:PLTR), a leading developer of placenta-based cell therapies, announced today the results of a pre-clinical trial using the Company's PLacental eXpanded (PLX) cells in tendon injury. Dr. Scott Rodeo and his orthopedic research team at New York's Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) studied the effects of PLX cells on rat patellar tendons that had sustained collagenase-induced injuries. "Cell-based approaches clearly have great potential for the augmentation of connective tissue healing, as well as for tissue regeneration. As an 'off the shelf' cell source, PLX cells could provide an effective option to improve tendon healing," stated Scott Rodeo MD, Principal Investigator for this study and Professor of Orthopedic Surgery at Weill Cornell Medical College. Dr. Rodeo is Co-Chief of the Sports Medicine and Shoulder Service at Hospital for Special Surgery, New York; Associate Team Physician for the New York Giants Football Team; and Physician for the U.S.A. Olympic Swimming Team. "Pluristem is extremely pleased that the results of this pre-clinical trial validate our strategy to pursue the use of our PLX cells for tendon injuries and other orthopedic indications. We look forward to the results of our recently fully-dosed, Phase I/II clinical trial in Germany using our PLX cells in muscle injury," stated Zami Aberman, Chairman and CEO of Pluristem. PLX-treated tendons demonstrated better early structural properties at 2 and 4 weeks compared to saline-treated controls. This was evident based on statistically significant higher load-to-failure properties at 2 weeks following injection. Additionally, the demonstrated higher mean load-to-failure and stiffness properties were maintained at 4 weeks. These improved biomechanical properties may be related to the findings of a greater proteoglycan and collagen content seen at the tendon-bone interface of PLX-treated samples.
