Today NeuriTest™ is the final quality control/product “checkpoint” for manufacturing autologous cell replacement therapy for people with Parkinson’s Disease. Tomorrow it may be leveraged for future autologous cell types and applications. #iPSC #autologous #celltherapy #PD

The purpose of Fast Track Designation is to get important new drugs to patients earlier. FDA grants Fast Track Designation (FTD) to facilitate development, and to expedite the review of medicines to treat serious conditions and fill an unmet medical need.
