As the world's second-largest neurodegenerative disease, the current treatment methods for Parkinson's disease are still limited to symptomatic treatment or complication management. These methods cannot fundamentally repair damaged dopaminergic neurons, let alone reverse the progression of the disease.


NouvNeu001The development precisely targets this clinical gap, offering patients the potential to alter disease progression through innovative cell replacement therapy.


This product is based on iRegene's proprietary intellectual property.“AI+Chemical InductionTechnical platform achieves the directional differentiation of high-purity specific dopaminergic neuron subtypes, while completing multiple functional modifications such as cell biochemistry during the induction process to meet clinical needs.


Different from traditional therapies,NouvNeu001By transplanting cells to fill the functional cell deficiency at the lesion site, repairing neural circuit damage caused by Parkinson's disease, and enabling patients to regain their dopamine self-secretion function, this approach truly has the potential to reverse the course of the disease, making it a world-first innovation.First-In-ClassTechnical Route.

NouvNeu001The breakthrough value has been supported by solid clinical data. In the Phase I clinical trial for Parkinson's disease, the product utilized the world’s first single-needle-path stereotactic drug delivery method, which not only ensured maximum safety in the drug delivery process but also achieved long-term survival and integration of transplanted cells.


In terms of efficacy, it has demonstrated an internationally leading level: single-dose administration in subjects.12Months later, the motor function score (MDS-UPDRS III) InOFFAverage Improvement in Status30.6Points, with an improvement幅度达52.82%; InONAverage Improvement in Condition13.6Points, with an improvement幅度达54.67%, significantly superior to existing various treatment options. These statistically significant clinical results further solidify its core competitiveness in the global Parkinson's disease treatment market.
