SAN DIEGO, Jan. 31, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sorrento Therapeutics, Inc.(Nasdaq: SRNE, "Sorrento")announcedtodayadditional positiveresultsfrom itsPhase 1bstudy ofhumanallogeneicadipose-derivedmesenchymal stemcells(COVI-MSC)forpatients suffering from COVID-19-induced acute respiratory distress (ARD)oracute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Thisongoingstudy (PSC-CP-004) is a single arm, non-randomized Phase 1b study of the safety and preliminary efficacy ofCOVI-MSCsadministered every other day for three infusions for a total of 1 x 106cells/kg. The primaryobjectiveis to evaluate the safety of intravenous infusion of allogeneic adiposeMSCcells in patients with COVID-19-induced ARDor ARDS.
On January 26, 2021, Sorrento announced the first three enrolledICU COVID-19 patientsweredischarged from the hospital withina weekofstartingCOVI-MSC infusions and a fourth patient just started the COVI-MSC treatment last Monday, January 25, 2021. The fourth patient who had been in the hospital for more than 2 weeks and required intubation and mechanical ventilation with worsening pulmonary compromise received 3 infusions of COVI-MSC and improved so rapidly that he was able to be discharged the evening after his 3rd infusion on January 29, 2021. No infusion related safety events were reported. Dr. Eyad Almasri, Associate Professor of Medicine, Pulmonary, Critical Care and Sleep Medicine at UCSF Fresno, is the principal investigator in this ongoing study.
Dr. Henry Ji, Chairman and CEO of Sorrento Therapeutics, stated It brings us great joy each time one of our treatments helps to save a life, after all that is what we at Sorrento work toward each and every day to save one life at a time.
More information on the Phase 1 trial can be found atwww.clinicaltrials.gov(NCT04486001).Information on the proposed Phase 2 trialis expected tobeavailablesoon.
Stem cells have been demonstrated to support resolution of symptoms in multiple disease settings and have the potential to reduce the long-term effects associated with pulmonary tissue damage.More information on the potential use and benefits of MSCs for patients with COVID-19 can be found in the recently published review at:https://translational-medicine.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12967-020-02380-2
Personalized Stem Cells, Inc.(PSC)is the GMP manufacturerpartner for Sorrentos COVI-MSC.
AboutSorrento Therapeutics, Inc.
Sorrento is a clinical stage, antibody-centric, biopharmaceutical company developing new therapies to treat cancers and COVID-19. Sorrentos multimodal, multipronged approach to fighting cancer is made possible by its extensive immuno-oncology platforms, including key assets such as fully human antibodies (G-MAB library), clinical stage immuno-cellular therapies (CAR-T, DAR-T), antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), and clinical stage oncolytic virus (Seprehvir). Sorrento is also developing potential antiviral therapies and vaccines against coronaviruses, includingCOVI-GUARD, COVI-AMG, COVI-SHIELD, Gene-MAb, COVI-MSC and COVI-DROPS; and diagnostic test solutions, including COVI-TRACK, COVI-STIX and COVI-TRACE.
Sorrento's commitment to life-enhancing therapies for patients is also demonstrated by our effort to advance a first-in-class (TRPV1 agonist) non-opioid pain management small molecule,resiniferatoxin(RTX), and SP-102 (10 mg, dexamethasone sodium phosphate viscous gel) (SEMDEXA), a novel, viscous gel formulation of a widely used corticosteroid for epidural injections to treat lumbosacral radicular pain, or sciatica, and to commercializeZTlido(lidocaine topical system) 1.8% for the treatment of post-herpetic neuralgia. RTX has completed a phase IB trial for intractable pain associated with cancer and a phase 1B trial in osteoarthritis patients. SEMDEXA is in a pivotal Phase 3 trial for the treatment of lumbosacral radicular pain, or sciatica.ZTlidowas approved by the FDA on February 28, 2018.
