“I’m happy with the tremendous progress we made last year in all three of our strategic objectives, clinical development, simplification and unlocking value of non-core programs,” said Adi Mohanty, Co-Chief Executive Officer. “We still have more to do, and are well on our way to transforming the company in 2017.”
“This year is shaping up to be the year of data with top line data from our registrational trial for Renevia® in Europe planned for mid-year, data from OpRegen® in Dry AMD to be reported in early May at ARVO and then again in the second half of the year, final validation data from our affiliate OncoCyte on its lung cancer diagnostic leading to a commercial launch in the second half of the year and additional data on OPC-1 for spinal cord injury from our affiliate Asterias and several other data reports from our other pipeline products. These data events and our planned actions to simplify the company while unlocking value will lead to continued positive transformation of BioTime,” concluded Mr. Mohanty.
