SanBio's SB623 demonstrated sustained improvement in motor impairment in brain injury

8 April 2022

Japan’s SanBio Group (TYO: 4592) has announced that SB623 met the primary endpoint and demonstrated a trend toward maintaining the improvement of function and activities of daily living in the final, one-year analysis of the Phase II STEMTRA trial, which evaluated the efficacy and safety of SB623 compared to sham surgery in patients with chronic motor deficit from traumatic brain injury (TBI).

These results will be presented in an oral session at the American Academy of Neurology (AAN) Annual Meeting, taking place on April 5, 2022, in Seattle, Washington, USA.

SB623 is an investigational, regenerative cell medicine comprised of bone-marrow-derived, mesenchymal stem cells that are implanted intracranially around the area of the injury.
