Kadimastem and Implant Therapeutics, Inc. Sign an Evaluation Agreement Towards the Potential Licensing of “Immune Evasive” Cells

Kadimastem

If the feasibility study is successful, it would be a significant step forward towards pancreatic tissue engineering that could be used to develop Kadimastem’s IsletRx for diabetes in a way where transplantation would be possible without concern of immune rejection Kadimastem Ltd. (TASE: KDST), a clinical stage cell therapy company developing a treatment for ALS, exploring other neurodegenerative diseases and developing a potential cure for diabetes, has signed an agreement with Implant Therapeutics, Inc. for use of “Immune Evasive Cell” iACT cells, (Which are implant cells that the immune system does not recognize as foreign to the body) Implant's breakthrough technology to prevent transplant rejection. Under the terms of the agreement, a feasibility study will be conducted to test if Implant Therapeutic’s iACT TM cells can provide a solution to the challenge of transplant immune protection and avoidance of rejection of Kadimastem’s IsletRx for diabetes. If so, Implant Therapeutics iACT TM cells could be a good cell source for Kadimastem to create its glucose sensing, insulin producing pancreatic cells, the basis for IsletRx, without the need of Immune protection or immunosuppression. The iACT TM “Immune Evasive” cell technology uses genetic modifications to cloak cells to be seen as part of the receiving body’s immune system and therefore are not rejected following transplantation. The success of the licensing feasibility study would be a significant step forward towards the potential to create pancreatic islet organoids, capable of producing insulin and glucagon as well as regulating blood glucose levels, that would not be rejected by the body. A successful evaluation may result in the licensing by Kadimastem of Implant Therapeutics’ technology. Kadimastem CEO Asaf Shiloni said, “This strategic agreement with Implant is the result of a long-term effort we have invested in bringing the innovative “Immune Evasive” cell technology to Kadimastem. The new capability takes us to the forefront of the race to develop diabetes care and will allow us to apply advanced technologies to create an optimal and ultimate solution to the central problem of protecting cells from the patient's own immune system. I welcome the move and hope that this technology will further advance the development of IsletRx, with the ultimate goal of improving the lives of the millions of people living with diabetes worldwide." About IsletRx IsletRx is a cell therapy treatment for diabetes, achieved by expanding the population of allogeneic stem cells differentiated into functioning insulin and glucagon producing and releasing pancreatic islet cells. The company then uses a proprietary technology to select the highest functioning cells, enrich them and then transplant them into the body. Preclinical studies have shown that the cells are able to detect the sugar levels in the body and to produce, and secrete, on demand, the required amounts of insulin and glucagon, just like a healthy pancreas. IsletRx demonstrated safety and efficacy in a proof-of-concept preclinical study. An INTERACT meeting took place with the FDA on October 7, 2021, where the diabetes treatment program was discussed, and the company received directions how to prepare its Pre-IND submission. About Implant Therapeutics Implant Therapeutics is a subsidiary of panCELLa whose mission is to develop therapeutic products in the immunology and cell therapy space and to partner with other companies to develop novel products in areas of regenerative medicine. Implant Therapeutics, under the guidance of Dr. Mahendra Rao, is engineering human iPSC cells that incorporate failsafe, iACT, hypoimmunogenic and safe-harbor technologies. These iPSC cells are “Immune Evasive” and are an ideal choice for replacement strategies of many cell types combining the advantages of allogeneic and autologous cells as well as allowing them to be used as ex-vivo gene therapy vehicles.

Freight Rate Transparency gains traction in Freight Forwarding – SHIFEX by Shifl

Shifl

Digital forwarding and supply chain platform Shifl has announced the launch of SHIFEX, an Ocean Spot Freight Rate Index for container shipments which is now available on their website ( https://shifl.com/index ). The recent and continuing unprecedented chaos in the freight markets has brought the dire need for transparency and visibility into actual ocean freight rates. Shabsie Levy, CEO and Founder of Shifl, said he often found thousands of dollars of disparities between reported and actual freight rates on the market. “In the current market condition, just about no one can afford to pay hundreds and sometimes thousands of dollars more for moving a single container,” said Levy. SHIFEX provides live insights into ocean freight rates. It tracks and displays the average ocean spot freight rates for 40'containers (FEU) on main Transpacific routes at any given period. Freight rate transparency and accuracy have always been touted as core business values. They improve customer engagement, build trust, and increase productivity in an industry that has been opaque. “By leveraging our existing technology, we are helping shippers benchmark the freight rates they should be paying for their shipments and help them better plan their order placements and inventory” said Levy. By analyzing its own data of actual bookings and shipments, Shifl was able to alert the market in advance of the drastic changes in the ocean spot freight rates across the volatile periods in 2021 and 2022. Eli Gelbman of The New York Doll Collection a company that manufacturers and sells childrens dolls and accessories says, "I am pleased that Shifl is launching SHIFEX. As a regular importer, we have been following Shifl's rate data in their market reports which has helped us tremendously in managing the volatility in the freight market. Having the same info now on-demand, will allow us to make better supply chain decisions, and improve efficiency in costing and in planning our orders." More about SHIFEX SHIFEX, the first ocean spot freight rate index by a US freight forwarder, provides live insights into ocean spot freight rates as it tracks and displays rates that are applicable on the Trans-Pacific route. SHIFEX is based on the actual spot freight rates quoted and/or paid for moving shipments on the Trans-Pacific route and is therefore a true reflection of the prevailing market conditions in the freight forwarding spot market. SHIFEX is offered as a free service by Shifl and covers Port to Port container spot freight rates. SHIFEX includes all commonly applicable surcharges, —including but not limited to BAF (Bunker and/or Emergency Bunker Adjustment Factor), CAF (Currency Adjustment Factor) ISPS (International Security Port Surcharge), PCS (Port congestion surcharge). The index provides past and current freight rates with the option of tracking rates on a 3, 5, 12 and 18 month basis from the base ports of China to both Los Angeles and New York. In addition to freight rates, Shifl is also planning to include its highly popular vessel transit and container dwell data and add spot freight rates of other trade lanes to SHIFEX so customers can track the past and current performance of these metrics as well. SHIFEX complements digital offerings that include Shifl.com, the digital forwarding and supply chain platform, and Shifl.capital, the cutting-edge FinTech solution designed to make business transactions easier for supply chain companies. About Shifl Shifl is leading the supply chain industry into the future with technology and innovation that brings a huge array of real-life benefits to its users. If you are a shipper looking to bring your business into today's digital age, be more in control, and pay less overall - Shifl is for you.
