Clinical pipeline progressing as planned

ReNeuron reported in December 2016 positive Phase II trial data for its CTX cells in chronic stroke patients, despite not meeting the three-month time frame of a two-point improvement in its primary outcome measure, the Action Research Arm Test (ARAT). As a result, the company has confirmed that it will progress to a pivotal controlled clinical study in 2017. Beyond CTX, we expect safety and efficacy data from its retinitis pigmentosa (RP) trial in 2017 and Phase I data from its critical limb ischaemia (CLI) trial. Our rNPV has increased to £291m.
