MultiStem® cell therapy product: a multimodal biologic product
MultiStem® Product Profile• Cell therapy product based on Multipotent Adult Progenitor Cell (MAPC) technology• Developing for “off‐the‐shelf” administration – no tissue matching needed• Expanded product with high production yield (e.g., millions of doses from each donor)• Long storage life – can be kept in frozen form for years• Consistent safety profile• Promotes healing and tissue repair through multiple mechanisms of action• Not a permanent transplant – cells cleared from the body over time
• Expanded, banked product• Obtained from healthy, consenting adult donors
MultiStem® Cell Therapy
• Frozen storage• Administered systemically (IV) or locally (catheter, injection, matrix/implant)

• High capacity mfg which will allow for manufacturing runs in the 500 billion – 2 trillion cell range (decrease testing costs due to lot size)
• Removal of xeno/human source materials when possible (lowering of regulatory/safety risk)
• Determine optimal storage conditions for final product and generate stability data (no special requirements for storage at clinical site)
• Final container configuration that supports thaw – deliver use (bags, vials or other)
• Automate mfg process (reduce labor costs)• Economy of scale for reagents (reduction in materials costs)

• 40 Layer Cell Factory, Hyperstack – direct path to scale up with existing technologies Advantages
o Scaled platform from current industry wide experience base Disadvantages
o 2 dimensional platforms with large volume management requirementso Currently untested large volume reduction options
TFF – multiple manufacturers (Pall, Millipore) kSep – promising but untested
• Hollow Fiber Bioreactor; ATMI (closed system stacked pizza platform) Advantages
o Provides scale out capacity with significant advantages Eliminates requirement for large scale volume reduction Closed system with increased safety for sterile breach Significantly reduced labor costs
o Allows in line testing for metabolites, control of gas/glucose in real time Disadvantages
o Limited scalability within current configurationo Better suited for autologous or patient designated approach
• Suspension bioreactor using microcarriers Advantages
o 3D platform with minimal media exposure, likely most economical o Multiple microcarriers with controlled surface coating coming into marketo Corning, BD, GE entering space
Disadvantageso Macro‐aggregates lead to complications in harvest; may be overcome with carrier size (Pluristem)o Difficulty in controlling oxygenation, shear parameters against particle size

• Hollow fiber’s large surface area maximizes cell expansion in a minimal amount of space
• MultiStem cells can be isolated and expanded on the Quantum• MultiStem cells show the same growth kinetics and retain all cell
characteristics • Automation: ease of use and better control• Decrease in labor: 2 hours of lab work to generate an average of
800 million cells• Expensive clean rooms not required
