About NeuronaNeurona’s regenerative neural cell therapies have single-dose curative potential. Based on a novel neural cell lineage developed by the company’s scientific founders, Neurona has built a robust regenerative platform and is developing off-the-shelf, allogeneic neuronal, glial, and gene-edited cell therapy candidates that provide long-term integration and repair of dysfunctional neural networks for multiple neurological disorders. Neurona’s lead product candidate, NRTX-1001, a targeted inhibitory neuron cell therapy derived from human pluripotent stem cells, is designed to repair hyperexcitable neural networks that underlie epilepsy, as well as other disorders of the nervous system, and is being evaluated for safety and efficacy in a Phase 1/2 multicenter clinical trial in people with drug-resistant mesial temporal lobe epilepsy.
