About Living Cell Technologies

Living Cell Technologies Limited (LCT) is an Australasian biotechnology company improving the wellbeing of people with serious diseases worldwide by discovering, developing and commercialising regenerative treatments which restore function using naturally occurring cells.

LCT's lead product, NTCELL®, is an alginate coated capsule containing clusters of neonatal porcine choroid plexus cells. After implantation NTCELL functions as a biological factory, producing factors to promote new central nervous system growth and repair disease-induced nerve degeneration.

The Phase I/IIa clinical trial of NTCELL for the treatment of Parkinson's disease, in New Zealand, met the primary endpoint of safety and halted the progression of the disease two and a half years after implant. Results from this trial were used to design a larger Phase IIb trial to confirm the most effective dose of NTCELL, define any placebo component of the response and further identify the initial target Parkinson's disease patient sub group. This trial commenced in March 2016. At 26 weeks post implant, there was no statistically significant difference between the group who received NTCELL and the patients who had the sham surgery, as measured by the change in the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS Part III in the off state). At one year, efficacy data shows a statistically significant improvement in the patients that received 40 or 80 NTCELL capsules implantation to the putamen on both sides of the brain as compared to the placebo group that received sham surgery, as measured by the change in the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS Part III in the off state). Post implant results of this trial will continue to be monitored in accordance with the study extension protocol.

In addition to Parkinson's disease, NTCELL has the potential to be used in a number of other central nervous system indications, including Huntington's, Alzheimer's and motor neurone diseases including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

LCT's proprietary encapsulation technology, IMMUPEL™, allows cell therapies to be used without the need for co-treatment with drugs that suppress the immune system.

LCT has initiated a collaboration with Sir Richard Faull, Centre for Brain Research, and Professor Margaret Brimble, The University of Auckland, to identify and synthesize a pericyte protective agent that may have potential therapeutic benefit in neurodegenerative diseases. LCT is also doing due diligence on other product opportunities in the field of translational neuroscience.

LCT is listed on the Australian (ASX: LCT) and US (OTCQX: LVCLY) stock exchanges. The company is incorporated in Australia, with its operations based in New Zealand.
