RR&D to lead site selection and design
Site analyses to begin immediately
PHILADELPHIA and NEW YORK, Oct. 26, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Rapid Reshore & Development (RR&D), an alliance of three specialized firms, and BrainStorm Cell Therapeutics, Inc (NASDAQ: BCLI), a leading developer of adult stem cell therapies for neurodegenerative diseases, announced that BrainStorm has selected RR&D as its partner to expedite site selection and design services for a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility for NurOwn® (autologous MSC-NTF) in the U.S.
BrainStorm is investigating NurOwn as a potential treatment for neurodegenerative diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and multiple sclerosis (MS). BrainStorm's most advanced clinical program for NurOwn is in ALS, which is currently being evaluated in a pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial.
BrainStorm seeks to locate, design and construct a new commercial manufacturing facility in the U.S. to prepare for potential commercialization. RR&D, a three-firm services alliance consisting of EwingCole, Facility Logix and Biggins, Lacy, Shapiro & Company, will identify the location and develop the design of BrainStorm's new commercial manufacturing facility.
"We're thrilled to be working with BrainStorm on this project and to have the opportunity to deliver this critical work to our region," said EwingCole CEO, Jared Loos, PE, AIA. "We embrace the spirit of creating potentially life-changing technology and we will do everything we can to move the project forward in an efficient and yet responsible manner."
BrainStorm intends to use the facility primarily for cell therapy production. RR&D will provide custom, streamlined project management, site selection analysis and design/construction management services throughout the project's lifecycle.
Chaim Lebovits, Chief Executive Officer of BrainStorm Cell Therapeutics commented, "Our decision to partner with RR&D was driven by the strong capabilities of the individual partners and their holistic approach to planning, site selection and design services. The expansion of BrainStorm's manufacturing capabilities is a key part of our broader corporate strategy to prepare for potential regulatory approvals of NurOwn and becoming a commercial organization. This new partnership follows our recently announced agreement with Catalent Pharma Solutions to manufacture NurOwn at a scale large enough to meet potential commercial needs at the time of launch. The dedicated, state-of-the-art manufacturing facility developed by RR&D will provide us with important long-term autonomy and strategic flexibility, including the capacity to supply NurOwn for additional disease indications beyond ALS. Together these two partnerships will help ensure that BrainStorm has the manufacturing capacity to meet the needs of patients today and well into the future."
Site selection analyses will begin immediately with the goal of identifying locations that offer a cost-effective solution for BrainStorm's new manufacturing facility. At the same time, the design team will begin developing a conceptual design of the manufacturing facility, based upon input from BrainStorm's process, engineering, and scientific staff, by defining the main steps of the production process and Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) requirements. The approximately 50,000 square-foot building will contain manufacturing suites, complementary support and infrastructure, and the ability to expand the facility to 100,000 square feet to anticipate future programmatic needs.
