PLX cells offer potential as first off-the-shelf product for muscle and tendon regeneration

HAIFA, ISRAEL, June 25, 2014 — Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. (NasdaqCM: PSTI) TASE: PLTR), a leading developer of placenta-based cell therapies, today announced it has selected rotator cuff repair as the second indication in its orthopedic clinical program. The Company’s PLacental eXpanded (PLX) cells offer potential as the first off-the-shelf cell therapy product for muscle and tendon regeneration that can be used to enhance repair after rotator cuff surgery. There are currently no FDA-approved therapies using engineered cells for the treatment of rotator cuff injuries.

According to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS), nearly 2 million patients in the U.S. seek help for their rotator cuff injuries. The incidence of these injuries increases with age, so as the U.S. population ages the prevalence and potential cost burden is likely to grow.

“Following the favorable results of our Phase I/II trial in our first orthopedic indication, the treatment of injured gluteal muscle after total hip replacement, we, together with Key Opinion Leaders in orthopedic surgery, selected rotator cuff repair as an important indication in need of a novel cell therapy solution. We are progressing with our study design, and are considering the addition of a third orthopedic indication,” stated Pluristem CEO Zami Aberman.

“There is a clear and unmet need for a new kind of therapy that can improve the outcome of orthopedic surgery for rotator cuff tears. Our PLX cells can be administered as a simple office procedure. The team of Key Opinion Leaders advising us is particularly excited by the potential of a non-invasive, effective cell therapy for orthopedic indications,” added Aberman.

Evaluating several orthopedic indications for Company’s PLX-PAD cell therapy 

HAIFA, ISRAEL, May 29, 2014 — Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. (NasdaqCM: PSTI; TASE: PLTR), a leading developer of placenta-based cell therapies, today announced it has enhanced its activity in the orthopedic indications for its PLacental eXpanded (PLX) cell therapies. In January, Pluristem announced positive results from its Phase I/II clinical trial for the treatment of injured gluteal muscle after total hip arthroplasty (THA). “This is a great result for a long path from a first idea to such a success in a first-in-men study in orthopedics with an off-the-shelf product to allow muscle regeneration” states Dr. Georg Duda, the Director of the Julius Wolff Institute and Berlin-Brandenburg Center for Regenerative Therapies at the Charité, Berlin. “This is the first hope for muscle regeneration with virtually no clinical therapy presently available to treat injuries or defects in shoulder or lower leg muscles.” added Dr. Carsten Perka, Head of Orthopedics at the Center for Musculoskeletal Surgery at the Charité, Berlin.

In addition, the Company has reported strong preclinical data from studies of PLX-PAD cells in the treatment of tendon injuries. Among the additional Key Opinion Leaders that are advising Pluristem, Dr. Scott Rodeo, who conducted the preclinical study of PLX- PAD cells in tendon injuries, commented, “One aspect that makes PLX cells unique and beneficial as a potential cell therapy is that they are adherent stromal cells derived from placentas, as compared to autologous cells which are sourced from the patient. Beyond the potential promise of PLX cells’ efficacy, the abundant commercial supplies of PLX- PAD cells produced by Pluristem eliminate the need for patients to go through an additional procedure to extract the cells from their own bodies.”

“We have strong clinical and preclinical data on several orthopedic indications for our PLX-PAD cells. With the guidance and expertise offered by Key Opinion Leaders, we are developing and prioritizing our orthopedic clinical indications pipeline,” stated Pluristem Chairman and CEO Zami Aberman.

CEO Zami Aberman to present at BIO KOREA 2014 on May 29

HAIFA, ISRAEL, May 20th, 2014 — Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. (NasdaqCM:PSTI; TASE: PLTR), a leading developer of placenta-based cell therapies, today announced the latest advancement in its clinical and commercial development programs in South Korea. The South Korean Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS) has recently cleared Pluristem’s upgraded manufacturing process in its new facility in Haifa, Israel. The cells produced at Pluristem new facility will be used by Korean sites joining the large Phase II study currently conducted by Pluristem in intermittent claudication (IC) patients. This Phase II IC study is currently ongoing in the U.S., Israel and Germany.

“South Korea is a large market in which we are very well positioned due to our strategic partnership agreement with CHA Bio & Diostech. We believe that our PLX cells are the only allogeneic cellular therapy product approved for clinical trials in South Korea. With the MFDS’s clearance for our cell manufacturing processes, we are now pleased to move forward with our Phase II IC trial in Korea”, stated Pluristem Chairman and CEO Zami Aberman.

Mr. Aberman will present at BIO KOREA 2014, which will take place in Goyang, South Korea on May 28th through May 30th. His presentation titled, “Cell Therapy – From the Bench to Multi-National Clinical Studies,” will take place during the “Stem Cell & Regenerative Medicine” track on May 29th at 2:50 pm. During the presentation, Mr. Aberman will discuss the collaborative clinical and commercial development process jointly undertaken by Pluristem and CHA.

Pluristem is operating in the South Korean market through an exclusive out-license and strategic partnership agreement with CHA Bio & Diostech (Kosdaq:CHA) for the use of its Pluristem’s PLacental eXpanded (PLX) cells for peripheral artery disease (PAD), in South Korea. Under the terms of the agreement, CHA will perform and fund multiple clinical trials in South Korea using Pluristem proprietary PLX cells. Upon the first regulatory approval for a PLX product in South Korea, Pluristem and CHA will establish a joint venture (JV) co-owned by the parties.

According to market research firm Clearstate, 1 million people in South Korea suffer from PAD and the growth forecast for the number of people diagnosed and treated in the country is moderate-to-high.

HAIFA, ISRAEL, May 07, 2014 — Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. (NasdaqCM:PSTI; TASE: PLTR) today announced that its shares of common stock will be added to a newly created TA Tech-Elite index on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange. Scheduled for launch on May 11, 2014, the TA Tech-Elite index will comprise shares of Israel’s leading technology and biomed companies. Initially, the index will include 34 eligible companies with Pluristem comprising approximately 2.05% of the index. The cumulative float- adjusted market cap of these companies exceeds approximately NIS 45 billion ($13 billion). Pluristem’s shares of common stock are also currently traded on additional indices such as the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange’s TA-100 and TA-75.

According to the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, the TA Tech-Elite index will also be part of a new “Israeli High-tech” index, which will be calculated by an international index vendor and is expected to serve as the underlying asset for various index-tracking products, enabling greater exposure of Israel’s high tech industry among foreign investors.

Also on May 11th, Mr. Aberman will deliver a corporate presentation at the Oppenheimer 15th Annual Israeli Conference in Tel Aviv at 10:50 am.

“Inclusion in the new TA Tech-Elite index will broaden our company’s exposure and we expect our stock will be more widely held by both Israeli and global investors,” commented Mr. Aberman.
