Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ:PSTI) (TASE:PSTI) (“Pluristem” or the “Company”), a leading biotechnology company, today announced topline results from its multinational double-blind, placebo-controlled phase III study. The Company designed the study to determine the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of intramuscular administration of allogeneic PLX-PAD cells for the treatment of muscle injury following arthroplasty for hip fracture. The study enrolled 240 patients in the United States, Europe, and Israel.
PLX-PAD was demonstrated to be an effective accelerator of muscle strength and regeneration. A significant increase in Hip Abduction Strength (HAS) was observed at week 26 and week 52 for patients treated with PLX-PAD (n=120), in the injured leg (p=0.047, p=0.0022) and uninjured leg (p=0.073, p=0.0046) compared to placebo (n=120). This new data confirms the results demonstrated in Pluristem’s phase I/II study.
The study did not meet the primary endpoint, which was the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) test at week 26. The SPPB is a series of physical performance tests used in older persons to assess lower extremity function and mobility.1
PLX-PAD was well tolerated and demonstrated a significant increase in HAS:
The increase in HAS was further supported by a positive trend in a 6-minute walk test at week 52, showing an increase in walking distance:
