I am mostly curious as to when they might have their finalized Phase I data ready to share or try and publish, and what their plans going forward are going to be to get a Phase II started.

I've been following this company for a lot of years. I got rid of all my old shares several years ago before they did a big dilution and ate the loss, but bought back in a small number again a couple of years back when it looked like the Phase I was going along well.

I'm guessing that their cash outflow dropped that 98% because they aren't paying for an active Phase I any longer, but the bump in revenue from their subsidiaries was nice. It won't be enough to pay for a Phase II, but it does speak well for keeping the lights on and the lab running in the meantime.

It has always amazed me how much under the radar this stock really is. The capitalization value is so low, it just is not followed enough for good or bad news to effect it much. This is quite good news. People in the Parkinson's arena also recognize that any study of efficacy that must be done over a long period can be weighted downward by the tendency for the disease to have naturally progressed at various rates among the trial patients. i.e. - halting deterioration would be a positive sign, near 50% improvement is more than that.

The news is not really out much yet though. Although in the Parkinson's Parkinson's News Today, they put this out today:

NEWS -- International Stem Cell Corporation Announces Successful Completion of Its Phase 1 Clinical Trial in Parkinson's Disease

CARLSBAD, CA / ACCESSWIRE / June 30, 2021 / International Stem Cell Corporation (OTCQB:ISCO) (https://www.internationalstemcell.com) ("ISCO" or "the Company"), a California-based clinical stage biotechnology company developing stem cell-based therapies and biomedical products, announced today successful completion of its dose escalating phase 1 clinical trial (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02452723) evaluating the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of its lead candidate, ISC-hpNSC® for the treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD).

Dr. Andrew Evans, M.D., Director of Movement Disorders at the Royal Melbourne Hospital, the study's principal investigator commented: "The safety evaluation is based on the initial 12 months of safety data from the first cohort (low dose), the second cohort (mid dose), and the third cohort (high dose). In all three cohorts there have been no serious adverse effects related to the transplanted ISC-hpNSC® cells. Based on all data collected in the clinical trial the therapy is considered safe."

In order to gain initial insight into what dose might show the greatest efficacy we have continued observations on a biannual basis of these patients. All the patients in the clinical trial have now completed at least 24 months of total post-operative observations. Patients treated with the mid dose (cohort 2) have been observed for at least 36 months and patients in the low dose group (Cohort 1) have been followed for 48 months post transplantation.

"We are excited about our phase 1 clinical trial results. Patients, followed for over two years after cell transplantation, have reported, on average, improvements in a Parkinson's Disease specific measures, when compared to baseline evaluations. In this context, the results are very encouraging that the ISC-hpNSC® transplanted cells are not only well tolerated, but also may be effective" commented Dr. Russell Kern, ISCO's Executive Vice President and Chief Scientific Officer.

In terms of preliminary efficacy, where scores are compared against baseline before transplantation, we observed a potential dose-dependent response, with an apparent peak effectiveness at our middle dose. The % OFF-Time, which is the time during the day when levodopa medication is not performing optimally and PD symptoms return, decreased an average 47% from the baseline at 12 months post transplantation in cohort 2. This trend continued through 24 months where the %OFF time in the second cohort dropped by 55% from the initial reading. The same was true for % ON-Time without dyskinesia, which is the time during the day when levodopa medication is performing optimally without dyskinesia. The % ON-Time increased an average of 42% above the initial evaluation at 12 months post-transplantation in the second cohort. The %ON result improved in the second cohort to 65% above the baseline in month 24. The quality of life of the patients as measured by the Parkinson's Disease Quality of Life Score-39 (PDQ-39) Summary Index, improved 43% for the second cohort at twelve months post-transplantation. This improved to a 45% better score in cohort 2 at 48 months.

About the clinical study

The Phase 1 clinical study is a dose escalation safety and preliminary efficacy study of ISC-hpNSC®, intracranially transplanted into patients with Parkinson's disease. The open-label, single center, uncontrolled clinical trial is evaluating three different dose regimens of 30 million to 70 million neural cells. A total of 12 participants with Parkinson's disease were treated. Following transplantation, the patients were monitored for 12 months at specified intervals to evaluate the safety and biologic activity of ISC-hpNSC®. A PET scan was performed at baseline, as part of the screening assessment, and at 6 and 12 months after surgical intervention. Clinical responses compared to baseline after the administration of ISC-hpNSC® will be evaluated using various neurological assessments such as Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS), Hoehn and Yahr as well as other rating scales. An extension phase of the study will evaluate patients every 6 months for 5 additional years.

About Parkinson's disease

Parkinson's disease is a degenerative disorder of the central nervous system mainly affecting the motor system. The motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease result from the death of dopamine-generating cells in the substantia nigra, a region of the midbrain. Early in the course of the disease, the most obvious symptoms are movement related. These symptoms include shaking, rigidity, slowness of movement and difficulty with walking and gait. Later, thinking and behavioral problems may arise, with dementia commonly occurring in the advanced stages of the disease. Depression is the most common psychiatric symptom. Parkinson's disease is more common in people over the age of 50. There are no approved treatments that restore the damaged dopaminergic neurons. Medications typically used in the treatment of Parkinson's disease, levodopa and dopamine agonists, improve the early symptoms of the disease. As the disease progresses and dopaminergic neurons continue to be lost, the drugs eventually become ineffective, while at the same time frequently producing a complication marked by involuntary writhing movements. There are over 10 million people afflicted with Parkinson's disease, worldwide. In 2013 Parkinson's disease resulted in about 103,000 deaths, globally. In 1990, the death toll recorded was 44,000.

About ISC-hpNSC®

International Stem Cell Corporation's proprietary ISC-hpNSC® consists of a highly pure population of neural stem cells derived from human parthenogenetic stem cells. ISC-hpNSC® is a suspension of clinical grade cells manufactured under cGMP conditions that have undergone stringent quality control measures and are free of any microbial and viral contaminants. Preclinical studies in rodents and non-human primates have shown improvement in Parkinson's disease symptoms and increase in brain dopamine levels following the intracranial administration of ISC-hpNSC®. ISC-hpNSC® provides neurotrophic support and neuroregeneration to the dying dopaminergic neurons of the recipient Parkinson's disease brain. Additionally, ISC-hpNSC® is safe, well tolerated and has shown not to cause adverse events such as dyskinesia, systemic toxicity or tumors in preclinical models. International Stem Cell Corporation believes that ISC-hpNSC® may have broad therapeutic applications for many neurological diseases affecting the brain, the spinal cord and the eye.

This company has appeared to be very undervalued most of its existance, IMHO. Yes there is some other classes of stock and options that will increase the total effective outstanding share count, but even then it will be fairly low comparatively. This is a development company that has actually produced some income and learned how to make and market their own produces while performing good science and development. More power to them. I hope for their sake and humanity they are even much more successful in the near and long term.

They have been quite silent compared to previous years. I hope they are just conserving cash and maintaining basic and profitable lines going.

On the research end they indicated the following in their most recent report: “””””” In April 2019, we announced the completion of subject enrollment, with the 12th subject receiving a transplantation of the highest dose of cells. There have been no safety signals or serious adverse effects seen to date as related to the transplanted ISC-hpNSC® cells. We anticipate providing full results of the active and follow up periods of the phase I clinical study in the second quarter of 2021.”

They have an annual meeting coming up that will be virtual only due to ongoing Covid activity. Their notice says; “””This year’s annual meeting of stockholders will be held on Wednesday, June 9, 2021, at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time. Due to the public health concerns arising from the COVID-19 pandemic, the Annual Meeting will be a completely virtual meeting of stockholders. You can attend the Annual Meeting by visiting www.proxydocs.com/ISCO “”””

I sold out what I held right before the last R/s. Bought back in a bit at about $1.50 a share a year + back,.... and then watched it tank for a while since.

If I can find any actual news,... might buy more. I have not seen any assessments of their Phase I work in Australia for Parkinson's Disease,... but that data should be finalized by now I would think.

I wrote this stock off and was not planning on doing anything with this ticker. The only reason I even noticed the ticker was because of the recent gains. I am curious will anyone add shares and try to average down the cost? Or just wait for the price to increase?

Wonder what is the engine pushing this up. It is obviously more than just a normal bounce off of the lows. Got in this AM and am thinking of doubling my shares.

Eischelman! Could it be? or is it just a response to the undervalued state of ISCO?

That is a red herring if I ever saw one. Very little if anything to do with ISCO.

Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.


https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1355790/000119312519206987/d784689d8k.htm


Item 4.01. Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.

(a) On July 25, 2019, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of International Stem Cell Corporation (the “Company”) elected to conclude the Company’s 8-year engagement with its independent registered public accounting firm Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. (“MHM”).

MHM’s audit reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except for the inclusion of an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the subsequent interim period through July 25, 2019, there were (i) no disagreements between the Company and MHM on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, any of which, if not resolved to MHM’s satisfaction, would have caused MHM to make reference thereto in its reports, and (ii) except as noted in the following paragraph, no reportable events within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

As previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 (the “2017 10-K”) and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 (the “2018 10-K”), the Company reported material weaknesses (the “Material Weaknesses”) in its internal control over financial reporting. In particular, as of December 31, 2017, the Company concluded its disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting related to the accounting for and disclosure of equity transactions. As of December 31, 2018, the Company concluded that its disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting including the areas of financial reporting and technical accounting, disclosures of equity, complex, non-routine, and significant transactions, and adoption of new accounting standards, collectively resulting from lack of continuity and sufficient accounting and finance resources. MHM was not required to, and did not, audit the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee and management discussed the Material Weaknesses with MHM. The Company has authorized MHM to respond fully and without limitation to any inquiries of BDO USA, LLP (“BDO”), the Company’s successor independent registered public accounting firm, concerning the Material Weaknesses.

The Company provided MHM with a copy of the disclosures it is making in this Current Report on Form 8-K and requested that MHM furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agrees with the statements made herein. A copy of MHM’s letter dated July 26, 2019, is filed as Exhibit 16.1 hereto.

(b) Following a selection process that evaluated several potential successor independent registered public accounting firms, on July 25, 2019, the Audit Committee approved the appointment of BDO as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2019. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the subsequent interim period through July 25, 2019, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted with BDO regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that BDO concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue, (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, or (iii) any reportable event within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.

(d) Exhibits.

16.1 Letter of Mayer Hoffman McCann P.C. to the Securities and Exchange Commission, dated July 26, 2019.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.

So KarinCA, tell us

when you stated that

"ISCO isn't a scam company"

what exactly did you mean?

because, have you read this?

Why ISCO is running trials in Australia.

ISCO isn't a scam company. They have two subsidiaries bringing in revenue. But, research and trials are very expensive. Cost is why many companies are running clinical trials in Australia. Go to the links I've provided rather than just reading the titles.

I'm sure you've heard of astrazeneca. Here's their take on doing trials in Australia.

Australia’s clinical trials industry is experiencing ‘unprecedented support’
29-Apr-2019 By Melissa Fassbender

The Australian Government commits $100m to support rural, regional, and remote clinical trials – recognizing the importance of a “vibrant clinical trial ecosystem in underpinning a world-class health care system,” says industry expert.

As I said earlier, dilution has been the main problem here. Not unheard of in biotech. Biotech is very risky for early investors and I got involved way too early with this one. But, that is my fault, not the company's fault. It's been off my radar for awhile now, but, I'm watching again for the upcoming trial results.
