Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Change in the ALSFRS-R total score from baseline to Week 24
From baseline to Week 24

To evaluate the efficacy of NurOwn compared to placebo in the treatment of participants with ALS based on the Revised Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Functional Rating Scale (ALSFRS-R) which is a 12-item clinician-administered questionnaire. Each item is scored between 0 and 4, with the total ALSFRS-R score between 0 and 48 where a higher score reflects a better outcome.

Frequency and severity of adverse events including treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), death, abnormalities in laboratory evaluations, physical examinations, vital signs and electrocardiogram (ECG) assessments
From baseline to Week 48

To evaluate the safety and tolerability of NurOwn in the treatment of participants with ALS throughout the study including the DBPC period (Part A) to Week 24 and the Open Label Extension (Part B).

Frequently asked questions about Debamestrocel- MSC-NTF

What is Debamestrocel-MSC-NTF used for?

Debamestrocel-MSC-NTF, also known as NurOwn, is an investigational therapy being developed for the treatment of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). It is currently in Phase 3 clinical development and has not been approved by regulatory authorities.

What does Debamestrocel-MSC-NTF target?

Debamestrocel-MSC-NTF is a mesenchymal stem cell-based therapy that secretes neurotrophic factors (MSC-NTF). It is designed to deliver multiple neurotrophic factors to the central nervous system, which may support motor neuron survival and function in ALS patients.

Who makes Debamestrocel-MSC-NTF?

Debamestrocel-MSC-NTF is being developed by Brainstorm Cell Therapeutics Inc., a biotechnology company traded on the NASDAQ under the ticker symbol BCLI. The company is focused on developing cellular therapies for neurodegenerative diseases.

What phase is Debamestrocel-MSC-NTF in?

Debamestrocel-MSC-NTF is currently in Phase 3 clinical development. It is an investigational drug and has not been approved by the FDA or other regulatory agencies. The ongoing Phase 3 trial is designed to evaluate its efficacy and safety in ALS patients.

What clinical trials is Debamestrocel-MSC-NTF in?

Debamestrocel-MSC-NTF is being evaluated in a Phase 3 clinical trial with the identifier NCT06973629. This trial, titled 'Efficacy and Safety of MSC-NTF (NurOwn) in Participants With Early Symptomatic ALS and Moderate Disease Presentation in ALS (ENDURANCE STUDY)', is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study enrolling approximately 200 participants in the United States.

Is Debamestrocel-MSC-NTF the same as NurOwn?

Yes, Debamestrocel-MSC-NTF is also known as NurOwn. The drug is referred to by both names in clinical and regulatory contexts. NurOwn is the proprietary name used by Brainstorm Cell Therapeutics for this investigational cell therapy.
