HAIFA, ISRAEL, December 07, 2017 — Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: PSTI, TASE: PSTI), a leading developer of placenta-based cell therapy products, announced today the company will present data from its Phase II-equivalent study of PLX-R18 cells for the treatment of acute radiation syndrome (ARS) at the American Society of Hematology’s (ASH) 59th Annual Meeting to be held in Atlanta, Georgia, on December 9-12, 2017.
The results of the study will be presented during Program Session 506: Hematopoiesis and Stem Cells: Microenvironment, Cell Adhesion, and Stromal Stem Cells.
The poster, “Intramuscular Administration of Placenta-Derived Stromal Cells Enhances Survival of Rhesus Macaque Monkeys Exposed to Total Body Irradiation,” will describe data from a recently announced Phase II-equivalent study under the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Animal Rule. The data demonstrate improved survival and hematological recovery of NHPs exposed to different levels of radiation. This study was conducted and funded by the
U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the NIH. The poster abstract will be published online in the supplemental volume of Blood, a peer-reviewed medical journal published by ASH.
“We are excited to present these promising data on our PLX-R18 cells in the treatment of ARS to the world’s thought leaders in hematology at this year’s ASH conference,” said Yaky Yanay, President and Co- CEO of Pluristem. “We believe that there is a crucial need for a therapy capable of effectively treating populations in case of nuclear or radioactive incidents.
These findings, which show recovery of the hematologic system, suggest that PLX-R18 has the potential to treat a large population exposed to different levels of radiation and might also be used for additional hematologic indications.”
PLX-R18 is Pluristem’s second cell therapy product in development. It is designed to treat bone marrow that is unable to produce enough blood cells due to a variety of causes including ARS, certain cancers or cancer treatments, or immune-mediated bone marrow failure. Pluristem is currently enrolling patients in a U.S. Phase I trial of PLX-R18 in incomplete bone marrow recovery following hematopoietic cell transplantation. PLX-R18’s first animal studies in ARS were performed in collaboration with Prof. Gorodetsky at Hadassah Medical Center. Further preclinical data from trials conducted by the U.S. National Institutes of Health, Hadassah, the Charite in Berlin and other prominent research institutions, have shown that PLX-R18 cells secrete a range of specific proteins that trigger the regeneration of bone marrow hematopoietic cells, thereby supporting the recovery of blood cell production. With its capabilities, PLX-R18 could potentially treat a broad range of hematologic indications, which together constitute a substantial global market.
Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. is a leading developer of placenta-based cell therapy products.
The Company has reported robust clinical trial data in multiple indications for its patented PLX (PLacental eXpanded) cells, and is entering late-stage trials in several indications.

Data supports advanced PLX-PAD clinical studies including dosing regimen, systemic therapeutic effects and superiority of the cells over cytokines
HAIFA, ISRAEL, November 29, 2017 — Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: PSTI, TASE: PSTI), a leading developer of placenta-based cell therapy products, announced the publication of a peer-reviewed article in Cytotherapy, the official journal of the International Society for Cellular Therapy, titled, “Placenta- Derived PLX-PAD Mesenchymal-Like Stromal Cells are Efficacious in Rescuing Blood Flow in Hind Limb Ischemia Mouse Model by a Dose- and Site-Dependent Mechanism of Action (MOA).” The article is based on the Company’s preclinical findings and will be published in the December 2017 issue of Cytotherapy.
The study utilized a mouse model of hind limb ischemia (HLI) to study the efficacy and MOA of PLX-PAD cells in the treatment of peripheral artery disease (PAD). Pluristem is currently conducting a global, pivotal Phase III study in critical limb ischemia (CLI), and is expecting clinical data from its Phase II study in intermittent claudication (IC). Both are forms of peripheral artery disease. In both conditions, blood supply to the legs is obstructed, leading to impaired blood flow and tissue ischemia.
Data from this study showed that intramuscularly (IM) administered PLX-PAD cells restored blood flow to the lower limbs of mice with HLI, in a dose- and site-dependent manner. IM administration of PLX-PAD cells had a systemic effect, thereby restoring blood flow to parts of the limb in need even when injected to the contralateral leg. Administration of a second dose was found to boost the effect of a single administration and lead to greater improvement in blood flow. The study demonstrated the cells’ MOA: secreting therapeutic proteins systemically that promote the creation of new blood vessels.
“We are pleased to share these findings, which suggest the potential of our cells to secrete an adaptive, slow-release cocktail of therapeutic proteins via their interaction with tissue surrounding the area in need of healing and repair,” stated Zami Aberman, Chairman and Co-CEO of Pluristem. “We believe this data supports our current pivotal trial in CLI by affirming our dosing methods and quantities. The data is also valuable in understanding the therapeutic role of PLX products in additional medical indications. We believe these important findings also provide additional support for the scientific rationale behind our unique mechanism of action, and for the systemic effect and therapeutic benefits of injecting the cells intramuscularly.”

HAIFA, ISRAEL, November 6, 2017— Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: PSTI) (TASE: PSTI), a leading developer of placenta-based cell therapy products, today announced that it has signed an agreement with Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center (Ichilov Hospital) to conduct a Phase I/II trial in PLX-PAD cell therapy for the treatment of Steroid-Refractory Chronic Graft-versus-Host-Disease (GvHD).
The trial will be an investigator initiated study. As such, Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center will support the study and will be responsible for its design and implementation. Dr. Ron Ram, Director of the Hematology Blood and Marrow Stem Cell Transplantation Unit for the Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center will act as principal investigator.
GvHD is a potentially lethal complication of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) from a donor. When a patient receives a donor’s stem cells, the transplanted cells identify the patient’s body as foreign and attack it. The chronic form of GvHD occurs at least 100 days following the transplantation. The GvHD market is predicted to exceed $500 million by 2023.
Preclinical studies showed that Pluristem’s PLX-PAD cell product potentially mitigates symptoms of GvHD, and in addition the secretion profile and mechanism of action properties suggest that it may be a novel and effective treatment for the condition. Pluristem hopes to address this severe unmet medical need and help patients lead full lives after undergoing a transplant.
“We’re excited to work with Pluristem towards developing an effective treatment for chronic GvHD,” noted Dr. Ron Ram at the Tel Aviv Sourasky Center. “Our Clinical Research Center is a hub for groundbreaking treatments and is the perfect testing ground for Pluristem’s cell therapy.”
“Studies have shown that our PLX cells have beneficial effects in a number of hematologic indications. We are very pleased to enter into this collaboration with Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center while continuing to focus on advancing our lead indications into pivotal and Phase III studies,” said Zami Aberman, Chairman and Co-CEO of Pluristem. “Our unique, proprietary technology platform and the versatility of our cells allow us to develop our cell products to treat a number of conditions with inadequate treatment options. We look forward to offering new hope to patients worldwide”
Chronic GvHD occurs in approximately 40% of patients who have received a transplant of hematopoietic stem cells sourced from the bone marrow or peripheral blood of a donor. These hematopoietic stem cell transplants are used to treat some blood or bone marrow cancers as well as other hematologic conditions, such as aplastic anemia, which are not related to cancer. The donated cells identify the recipient’s body as foreign and attack it as a result.
While acute GVHD usually appears in the first 100 days after a transplant, and in specific body systems, chronic GvHD can occur at any time (even several years) after a transplant, and may manifest in many parts of the body such as: skin, mouth, eyes, liver, intestines, lungs and joints.
Long term immunosuppression is given to try to prevent or treat chronic GvHD. Since this treatment suppresses the immune system for a very long time, patients are at high risk of infections, and are prescribed multiple medications to try to address this major risk.

HAIFA, ISRAEL, October 26, 2017 — Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. (Nasdaq: PSTI , TASE: PSTI), a leading developer of placenta-based cell therapy products, announced today that it received approval from Israel’s Ministry of Health to initiate a Phase I trial studying the company’s PLX-R18 cell therapy as a treatment for insufficient hematopoietic recovery following hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). As previously announced, the trial was also approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and recruitment is ongoing in the United States. Up to 30 patients will be recruited in total from the United States and Israeli trial sites. Ethics committees at both Hadassah Medical Center and Rambam Hospital in Israel have cleared the trial and recruitment can begin in both hospitals.
“We’re very pleased with the Israeli Ministry of Health’s vote of confidence in our innovative therapies and efforts to provide treatments for a range of hematopoietic conditions, including insufficient recovery from hematopoietic stem cell transplants,” stated Zami Aberman, Pluristem’s Co-CEO and Chairman. “Hadassah Medical Center and Rambam Hospital are well known for their groundbreaking treatments and we are happy for this collaboration. Previous studies with PLX-R18 cells have yielded promising results, which we believe suggest that our cells can improve patient outcomes.”
Pluristem’s PLX-R18 cells are in late-stage development as a treatment for acute radiation syndrome (ARS) and the program is supported by the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH), which is conducting the trials. The cells are also being studied by the U.S. Department of Defense and the Fukushima Medical University in Japan. Pluristem recently reported a new granted patent to cover PLX-R18 cells in additional indications related to the bone marrow’s inability to produce blood cells, including autoimmune diseases, genetic disorders, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy.
Bone marrow failure is the inability of bone marrow to produce sufficient numbers of platelets, white or red blood cells.
This inability may result in serious illness or death, because these cells are necessary to prevent hemorrhage, infection or severe anemia.
Bone marrow failure can be caused either by medical conditions such as aplastic anemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, hematologic malignancies, or as a side effect of radiation or chemotherapy cancer treatment. The incidence of bone marrow failure resulting from these conditions varies widely, but is increasing.
The only known cure for bone marrow failure is HCT, although supportive therapies and treatments can reduce symptoms and prolong life for some patients.
The hematopoietic cells for HCT can come from a donor or from the patient, and can be harvested from peripheral blood, bone marrow or umbilical cord blood.
Transplant patients require extensive care and monitoring, and sometimes need intensive treatment for complications.
In cases of incomplete engraftment, blood cell counts are insufficient, causing the patient to be at high risk of severe or lethal complications. In severe cases, the patient may need to undergo the arduous and dangerous process of a second transplant.
PLX-R18 is Pluristem’s second cell therapy product in development. It is designed to treat bone marrow that is unable to produce enough blood cells due to a variety of causes including ARS, certain cancers or cancer treatments, or immune-mediated bone marrow failure. PLX-R18’s first animal studies in ARS were performed in collaboration with Prof. Gorodetsky at Hadassah Medical Center. Further preclinical data from trials conducted by the NIH, Hadassah, the Charite in Berlin and other prominent research institutions have shown that PLX-R18 cells secrete a range of specific proteins that trigger the regeneration of bone marrow hematopoietic cells, thereby supporting the recovery of blood cell production. Pluristem is currently enrolling patients in a U.S. Phase I trial of PLX-R18 in incomplete bone marrow recovery following HCT and is preparing for a pivotal trial in ARS.

Patent significantly expands potential indications for PLX-R18 and grants Pluristem broad coverage in the treatment of damaged hematopoietic systems
HAIFA, ISRAEL, October 23, 2017— Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: PSTI, TASE: PSTI), a leading developer of placenta-based cell therapy products, announced today that the European Patent Office has issued the company a patent titled, “Methods for Treating Radiation or Chemical Injury” for its PLX-R18 cell therapy.
Pluristem currently holds several patents worldwide to cover placental 3D-expanded cells in the treatment of impaired hematopoietic systems when a bone marrow, cord blood, or peripheral blood transplant takes place. This important patent expands Pluristem’s IP assets to include a new set of indications related to the bone marrow’s inability to produce blood cells, such as acute radiation syndrome (ARS), autoimmune diseases such as aplastic anemia, genetic disorders, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and side effects from other treatments. Pluristem currently holds over 115 issued patents and 100 pending patent applications worldwide.
“PLX-R18 is covered by several patents in key markets for the treatment of bone marrow failure following a transplant of hematopoietic stem cells, or for the support of such a transplant. What makes this a key patent for our IP assets is that it addresses the treatment of a much broader range of medical conditions in which bone marrow is damaged and the patient has not received a transplant,” stated Yaky Yanay, Co- CEO and President of Pluristem. “PLX-R18 cells have shown the ability to trigger regeneration of the hematopoietic system, thereby supporting the recovery and production of white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets. With its capabilities, we believe that PLX-R18 has the potential to treat a broad range of hematologic indications, which together constitute a substantial global market.”
