About AgeX Therapeutics
AgeX Therapeutics, Inc. (NYSE American: AGE) is focused on
developing and commercializing innovative therapeutics for human
aging. Its PureStem® and UniverCyte™ manufacturing and
immunotolerance technologies are designed to work together to
generate highly defined, universal, allogeneic, off-the-shelf
pluripotent stem cell-derived young cells of any type for
application in a whole host of diseases with a high unmet medical
need. AgeX has two preclinical cell therapy programs: AGEX-VASC1
(vascular progenitor cells) for tissue ischemia and AGEX-BAT1
(brown fat cells) for Type II diabetes. AgeX’s revolutionary
longevity platform named induced Tissue Regeneration (iTR™) aims to
unlock cellular immortality and regenerative capacity to reverse
age-related changes within tissues. AGEX-iTR1547 is an iTR-based
formulation in preclinical development. HyStem® is AgeX’s delivery
technology to stably engraft PureStem cell therapies and slowly
release iTR molecules in the body. AgeX is developing its core
product pipeline for use in the clinic to extend human healthspan,
and is seeking opportunities to form licensing and partnership
agreements around its broad IP estate and proprietary technology
platforms for non-core clinical applications.
