BioRestorative Therapies Inc. (NASDAQ:BRTX) revealed on Wednesday new preliminary 26 to 52 week blinded data from the first 10 patients with chronic lumbar disc disease (cLDD) enrolled in the ongoing Phase 2 trial of BRTX-100.

BRTX-100 is a novel cell-based therapeutic engineered to target body areas with little blood flow.

The company reported blinded clinical data on the secondary efficacy endpoint of at least a 30% decrease in pain measured on the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and at least a 30% increase in function based on the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) at week 52.

The blinded preliminary efficacy endpoint data demonstrated:

  • At 26 weeks, 70% of subjects (n=10) and 100% of subjects (n=4) at 52 weeks reported a >30% improvement in VAS versus baseline.
  • At 12 and 26 weeks, 70% of subjects (n=10) had a >30% improvement in ODI versus baseline.
