Aspen Neuroscience is combining stem cell biology with genomics to create therapies to treat patients with neurodegenerative diseases. Parkinson’s Disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disease with no disease-modifying agents available. Since patients lose ~50% of dopamine neurons, cell replacement therapy has the potential to restore function. Using their stem cell biology and genomics platform, Aspen is providing the world’s first autologous induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived neuron replacement therapy for Parkinson’s Disease. This regenerative therapy for Parkinson’s Disease uses the patient's own cells and avoids the need for immunosuppression and is currently undergoing investigational new drug-enabling studies.
