Evera, A Harvard Consumer Biotech Company, Brings Stem Cell Banking To You – Forbes

Throughout the past decade, consumer biology tests have been all the rage. Companies such as 23andMe and Ancestry DNA have made their test kits accessible to every day Americans. One can screen for anomalies in their genetic code or identify their lineage. With recent advances in stem cell research, a new opportunity within the consumer biology market has appeared. Nabeel Quryshi, Michael Chen and Zeel Patel are three Harvard undergraduates who observed the unmet, rising demand of control over ones stem cells. They worked together to create Evera, the first at-home stem cell banking company. The three Harvard students are joined by the schools world-renowned biology professor, Dr. George Church. The Cambridge, Massachusetts-based company was incubated at the Harvard Innovation Lab, and has former NASA astronaut Scott Kelly as a investor.

Evera cofounders from left to right: Nabeel Quryshi, Michael Chen and Zeel Patel.

Kelly says, "I did a lot of my independent research, consulted with NASA physicians and scientists, and experts in the stem cell for cancer treatment fields. All those discussions and research indicated that this technology has merit."

Frederick Daso: What led you and your team to identify that stem cells could be potentially used to prevent neurodegenerative disease?

Nabeel Quryshi: I wouldn't single out a focus on neurodegenerative diseases. However, over the last decade, there has been a flurry of research around the use of stem cells to treat conditions such as Parkinson's, Dementia, Alzheimer's, etc. People are working on prevention, but there are two main use cases of stem cells currently. One is for treatment (replacement of damaged or lost cells), and the other is disease modeling (being able to model diseases and test the effects of new drugs completely in vitro without having to get a biopsy).

Daso: In the same ways that blood banks function, how did you manage to apply that concept to the storage of stem cells over a long time?

Quryshi: Cord blood banks and academic stem cell banks that use standardized cryopreservation protocols have been around for a while. The main innovation behind Evera was developing technology around the collection and preservation of urine-derived cells.

Daso: Why don't more mothers store their children's cord blood in stem cell banks? Is it mostly due to a price issue, or is there some other factor at play?

Quryshi: From the countless interviews we've done, it seems to be a price issue. Additionally, it's hard to make a sale around the time of birth as families have countless other things to worry about that are more immediate to the birth of a child.

Daso: What would be driving the growth of this market both now and in the future?

Quryshi: The growth of new cutting edge cell therapies is certainly further demonstrating the need for personal cell biobanking. Furthermore, the success of the direct to consumer genetic testing industry (23andMe, Ancestry, etc.) is a significant driver of growth. From the research we've conducted and the customers we have spoken to, individuals who have already taken 23andMe or another genetic test and know what they are at risk for genetically are looking for ways to take tangible action. Evera is that next step. Instead of just understanding what your future genetic risk is, Evera allows you to make a real biological investment in your future health and wellbeing. While knowing you're at risk for saying Parkinson's is excellent, being able to set aside your youngest cells so that one day you may be able to combat the effects of such a disease is terrific.

However, one should note that although the growth and technology coming from the cell therapy and stem cell therapy industry is astonishing, these are still projections. We have yet to see a fully FDA approved therapy that utilizes the specific types of stem cells we use (induced pluripotent stem cells). Nevertheless, by the time such treatments make it to the clinic, your cells will have aged significantly, and thus it makes sense to save them away now.

Daso: Could you walk me through the thought process of figuring out how to extract stem cells from urine? (From what I know, stem cells usually come from other parts of your body!)

Quryshi: Until around 2011/2012, you would have been right. However, utilizing the fantastic technology that comprised Dr. Yamanaka's 2006 Nobel Prize, scientists have been able to convert any cell in the human body to a kind of stem cell called an induced pluripotent stem cell. This cell has the capability of being able to differentiate into any cell type in the human body. We have advanced tech around the conversation of urine-derived cells to these iPSCs.

Daso: How have you designed your D2C service to ensure that a customer's DNA and associated data are not at risk?

Quryshi: We take data and privacy extremely seriously. We are well aware of the concerns people already have to D2C genetics products. To ensure the confidentiality and privacy of your data and sample, we separate your personally identifiable information from sample information and simultaneously use multiple layers of encryption and cryptography. Your sample and associated data cannot be associated with you individually. Furthermore, our facility is monitored 24/7 with top of the line security measures. We believe that your sample is your property.

Daso: What was the turning point during your undergrad to pursue this idea?

Quryshi: Having worked at 23andMe, I was able to get the lucky opportunity to be a part of arguably the world's most successful consumer genetics company. I saw first hand the benefits of providing customers with their genetic risk. Yet, I discovered that merely providing such risk predictions may not be enough led me to found Evera on the notion that tangibly investing in one's future health and wellbeing through cell banking will propel us into the age of personalized medicine.

Daso: How do you leverage your advisory board to navigate regulations and moral hazards in this space?

Quryshi: We have assembled a dream team consisting of experts in stem cell banking and cell therapy. Our co-founders and advisors comprise of professors from Harvard and Stanford, executives from companies such as Verily as well as top grad students and postdocs in stem cell biology from Harvard and Stanford. We work collaboratively to make sure we adhere to all regulations and ensure the secure preservation of our customer's cells.

Here’s Why Fate Therapeutics Rose 18.4% in May – The Motley Fool

What happened

Shares of Fate Therapeutics (NASDAQ:FATE) gained over 18% last month, according to data provided by S&P Global Market Intelligence. Most of the stock's gains in May can be traced to a single announcement by the cell-therapy developer.

On May 20, the development-stage company announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cleared a new drug candidate to begin clinical trials. Identified as FT538, the drug candidate is the first cell therapy that has been both engineered with CRISPR gene-editing tools and derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC). The combination could lead to safer, more effective, and significantly lower-cost drug products.

Investors cheered the latest sign of progress for the early stage pipeline -- and the momentum hasn't waned. In fact, a public offering of common stock on June 9 triggered additional gains for the pharma stock. Apparently, investors are content with dilution so long as Fate Therapeutics maintains a well-funded balance sheet.

Image source: Getty Images.

Fate Therapeutics has one of the most ambitious pipelines in cell therapy, spanning 13 unique programs and multiple cell types. Until recently, investors had few tangibles to analyze, but promising (very) early-stage data and a multi-billion-dollar partnership with Johnson & Johnson subsidiary Janssen have de-risked the stock.

It might be a bit silly to get excited about a preclinical asset moving to clinical trials, but FT538 could prove to be an important bellwether for Fate Therapeutics. If researchers prove that gene-editing tools can be used with reproducible results on cells grown from master cell lines, such as iPSCs, then it would be a big step forward for the field of cell therapy. The capabilities would enable the relatively quick engineering of cell therapies, both for efficacy and safety, and allow living drug products to be manufactured at scales and costs simply not possible today.

Including cash on hand at the end of March and the expected proceeds from the stock offering on June 9, Fate Therapeutics should begin the second half of 2020 with at least $350 million in cash. That should be enough to generate results from a handful of ongoing clinical trials, but investors shouldn't forget that the company's ambitious pipeline will require many hundreds of millions of dollars to develop.

Here Are a Bunch of Photos of Cops Not Wearing Masks – Futurism

At a protest in Queens, I asked a police officer why he wasnt wearing a mask.

Coronas over, he replied.

As Black Lives Matter protests against police violence and systematic racism erupted across the country, an unfortunate trend has emerged: while police often show up heavily armed and wearing riot gear, they seldom wear medical masks or other face coverings to prevent COVID-19 from spreading.

By not wearing masks, police are putting themselves and others at a greater risk of catching the coronavirus, experts told Time.

If a state, if a county, if a city is telling the general public to wear masks, Johns Hopkins health researcher Amesh Adalja told Time, then the police officers must follow that same law.

While a number of public health experts have argued that protestors are unlikely to cause a huge explosion in coronavirus infections, that assumes that everyone takes basic common-sense measures like keeping distance where possible and wearing a medical mask that keeps them from spreading pathogens.

Some cops are skipping masks entirely. Others are wearing them wrong, by pulling them down to expose their noses or mouths.

And while being outdoors likely reduces the risk of transmission, tightly clustered police and the protestors they arrest become public health hazards. Meanwhile, as of May 4, the NYPD had spent $12 million on medical masks this year alone, pointing to a major waste of time and resources given how few cops actually wore them.

I attended multiple protests and vigils throughout New York City. At all of them, the majority of police opted to skip the face mask or wear it improperly.

Videos from other protests, like this one of Austin police opening fire on a crowd of peaceful protestors, highlight that the problem of police ignoring their masks is a national issue.

Lies and Hypocrisy: Anti-Abortion Arguments to Restrict the Abortion Pill – Ms. Magazine

The anti-abortion movement is pressing the Trump administration to rescind changes and even more severely tighten restrictions on the abortion pill. (support circle / Flickr)

The anti-abortion movement has fought a long-standing battle against access to the abortion pill. In the 1980s, they threatened to boycott drug companies developing the drug. In the 1990s, they waged a campaign to block FDA approval of the pill; although finally approved in late 2000, severe restrictions were placed on distribution of the pill by the FDA.

After research showed that a lower dosage of 200 mginstead of 600 mgwas just as effective and caused fewer side effects, and that the drug could be used safely later into pregnancyuntil 70 days instead of 49anti-abortion advocates pressured the FDA for years to maintain the higher dosage and shorter timeline for usage of the pill.

Under the Obama administration, the FDA finally approved the lower dosage and longer timeline in 2016, but today the anti-abortion movement is pressing the Trump administration to rescind those changes and even more severely tighten restrictions on the abortion pill.

Through these campaigns to suppress theusage of the abortion pill, anti-abortion advocates have spread misleading and false information about the safety and efficacy of the abortion pill.

A glaring contemporary example of this strategy is the right-wing Family Research Council (FRC)s recent report, titled The Next Abortion Battleground: Chemical Abortion.

Founded in 1983 as a division of James Dobsons religious right organization Focus on the Family, the Family Research Council is now one of the far rights most powerful advocacy groups, fighting against abortion, stem cell research and LGBTQ equality, and promoting the Judeo-Christian worldview as the basis for a just, free and stable society.

The FRCs chemical abortion report is full of lies and misrepresentations, citing discredited research and junk science. The report uses inflammatory and misleading language, and is replete with hypocritical arguments.

One way FRC tries to mislead the public is by using inflammatory and alarmist language.

For example, they use the phrase chemical abortion to make abortion pills sound dangerouswhen in fact they are very safe.

Here atMs., our team is continuing to report throughthis global health crisisdoing what we can to keep you informed andup-to-date on some of the most underreported issues of thispandemic.Weask that you consider supporting our work to bring you substantive, uniquereportingwe cant do it without you. Support our independent reporting and truth-telling for as little as $5 per month.

Throughout the report, they refer to embryos and fetuses as babies, and they describe misoprostol as a drug that yanks the baby out of the womb. They refer to medication abortion as a violent regimen. Their language is misleading and overwrought.

The FRC report repeatedly refers to the abortion industryan attempt to make doctors and other clinicians providing abortion health care sound nefarious and exploitative.

This extreme and inflammatory language demonizes people providing and having abortions. But FRC goes farther. They explicitly lie about the risks of medication abortion.

The FRC report is riddled with misrepresentations and outright lies about the safety of medication abortion. They claim that the abortion pill poses profound dangers to women. In fact, mifepristone is an extremely safe drug.

The FRC plucks from the mifepristone medication guide the rarest but most severe drug reactions and frames them as common. FRC cites discredited research and junk science, making the false claim that abortion causes depression, and then claims, without evidence, that medication abortion is uniquely traumatic to women, more so than aspiration abortion.

FRC inaccurately claims that mifepristone is subject to the FDAs drug safety programRisk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategies (REMS)because it carries such life-threatening risks. In fact, mifepristone is subject to the REMS restriction because of politics, not safety concerns. Mifepristone issix times safer than Viagrawhich the FDA does not restrict under the REMS program.

The REMS restriction means that mifepristone cannot be distributed through pharmacies like most other drugs. Instead, only doctors registered with the manufacturer can dispense the pill to their patients.

Throughout the report, the FRC inaccurately argues that removing the FDA REMS restriction would lead to the abortion pill being available over the counter, making do-it-yourself abortions the norm. In fact, in the absence of the REMS restriction, the abortion pill would be treated like most other drugsavailable at pharmacies by prescription, under the supervision of a doctor. Simply removing the FDA REMS restriction would not result in do-it-yourself abortion.

At the end of their report, the FRC calls on the FDA to strengthen restrictions on the abortion pill, prohibit telemedicine abortion and require doctors to conduct unnecessary physical examinations of patients receiving the abortion pill. These barriers would significantly decrease access to medication abortion and increase the costs.

FRC also calls for the criminal prosecution of Rebecca Gomperts of AID Access, who assists people in obtaining and using the abortion pill, as well as cracking down on online pharmacies that sell the pill.

Finally, they call for shutting down Gynuity Health Projects TelAbortion study, which allows an exception to the REMS restriction in certain states.

In fact, they are terrified of the power and control that the abortion pill puts into womens hands. They hate the way that medication abortion can avoid the obstacles and restrictions they have constructed over the last 47 years since Roe v. Wade legalized abortion in the United States.

A cheap, widely accessible abortion pill that women could obtain through the mail and take in the privacy of their own homes would mean anti-abortion extremists would lose the opportunity to harass and yell at women going into and out of clinics, terrorizing them with their abuse.

The National Womens Health Network is leading a campaign to raise awareness about the FDA restrictions on the abortion pill, pressure the FDA to lift the restrictions, and make the abortion pill more widely available. You can find resources for the campaign on their website, which they encourage people to share widely using the hashtag #MailTheAbortionPill.

Public policy must be based on medical science and genuine concern for womens healthnot on the lies, misrepresentations and hypocrisy of hate groups like the Family Research Council.

Coronavirus: Abu Dhabi invests Dh3.6m in new technology to boost Covid-19 fight – The National

Pioneering scientists in Abu Dhabi have unveiled new cutting-edge technology which is set to provide vital support to patients battling Covid-19.

The Abu Dhabi Stem Cell Centre (ADSCC) has invested Dh3.6 million on a Helios Mass Cytometer, a state-of-the-art tool which experts say will help bolster the bodys defence against the virus.

The cytometer, the only one of its kind in the Middle East, will enable scientists at the centre to quickly and accurately profile individual human cells, allowing them to study and monitor a patients immune response to the virus.

"With this tool, the ADSCC can study clinical outcomes and changes in inflammatory or immune function from blood samples of Covid-19 patients, an ADSCC spokesperson said.

"This will allow us to address some of the pressing questions that remain unanswered regarding Covid-19.

Staff at the centre are currently receiving training on the operation of the new machine, which they have affectionately dubbed ''The Lamborghini''.

Scientists leading efforts to stem the spread of Covid-19 are seeking to assess whether those most at risk of severe symptoms can be identified early, what interventions can reduce its severity and what vaccines will prove most effective in staving off the virus.

The centre recently introduced a new therapy to treat the effects of Covid-19, which has proved fruitful for a number of patients with severe symptoms.

It involves isolating then activating stem cells taken from the patient's blood before they are nebulised into a fine mist so they can be inhaled into the lungs.

The first UAE patient to recover from Covid-19 after undergoing the stem-cell therapy told The National last month of his gruelling journey to "full health" after being placed in a coma to stop his organs shutting down.

Abdullahi Rodhile, 50, from Somalia, contracted the virus on March 30 and, because of an existing heart condition, his health deteriorated quickly.

The virus attacked his kidneys and lungs so badly that doctors rushed him into the intensive care unit at Sheikh Khalifa Medical City in Abu Dhabi and put him in an induced coma for 20 days.

I was brought back to life. I was dead and now I am alive, said Mr Rodhile, who works as a cargo clerk.

I have never been better. Thank God."

He spent 40 days in intensive care but only after he started the stem cell therapy did his lungs begin to improve slightly.

Mr Rodhile eventually healed enough to gradually awaken from the coma.

Scientists at Abu Dhabi Stem Cell Centre are continuing to harness latest technologies in order to aid patients in ill health.

The centre announced on Saturday it is to begin offering Minimal Residual Disease tests for cancer patients a first in the UAE.

The highly specialised test allows physicians to spot residual, potentially-resistant cells that can lead to a relapse in patients. Currently such a test is not available in the Emirates and cancer patients have to travel abroad to be tested because the test requires the use of a fresh sample to be accurate.

Although, Adipose Tissue-derived Stem Cells have the ability to differentiate into different cell types in vitro, unlike the embryonic stem cells they lack the ability to differentiate into all types of organs and tissues of the body. Derivation of stem cells from adipose tissue have a number of advantages including that fat tissue contain 100 to 1000 times more mesenchymal stem cells than the bone marrow. Furthermore the method of collection of fat tissue is relatively easier and is less invasive than that of bone marrow collection. Although Adipose Tissue-derived Stem Cells have a potential to be used in cell-based therapy, there are a number of challenges the Adipose Tissue-derived Stem Cells market has to face. Some of the challenge include the safety issue for the clinical use of Adipose Tissue-derived Stem Cells, development and differentiation of the cells, delivery of the cells in vivo and immune response after the transplant.

Stem Cell Therapy Designed To Treat Severely Ill Coronavirus Patients Being Tested In Maryland – CBS Baltimore

BALTIMORE (WJZ) A stem cell therapy trial for the most critically ill coronavirus patients is underway in Maryland.

Researchers at the University of Maryland School of Medicine are trying to save the maximum number of patients who are significantly sickened by the virus and reduce the mortality rate.

Thanks to a sponsorship by Australian regenerative medicine company Mesoblast, the stem cell therapy trial is underway at several sites across the U.S., including in Maryland.

The therapy involves 300 people hospitalized with COVID-19 with moderate to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome.

These are patients that are intubated, requiring great support for their lung function, Dr. Sunjay Kaushal with the University of Maryland said.

CORONAVIRUS RESOURCES:

COVID-19 patients often become very ill from an escalated immune response referred to as a cytokine storm, which creates high levels of inflammation that can be fatal. The experimental stem cell therapy called remestemcel-L, which has been developed for various inflammatory conditions like what is being seen with the coronavirus, aims to block or mitigate that response, Kaushal said.

Were trying to extrapolate from what they have been shown to be efficacious in trying to treat before and trying to use that type of therapy now for COVID-19 patients, he said.

Once the final results from the trial are available, which could take between six and eight months, researchers hope to reach even more patients.

Were excited, weve seen some early signs that these cells may be efficacious, Kaushal said.

Ultimately, their hope is to provide a new treatment for those suffering from the worst cases of COVID-19.

Were hoping we can save a lot of patients lives, Kaushal said.
