Proneuron Biotechnologies is enrolling patients suffering from complete spinal cord injuries to participate in a Phase II multi-center clinical study. Patients within 14 days of injury will be implanted with ProCord. Proneuron Biotechnologies, a Delaware company, is in advanced stages of clinical development in a number of attractive neurological markets. Proneuron is the first company to harness the power of the body's own immune system for the treatment of debilitating central nervous system (CNS) disorders. The concept of helping the body to "cure" itself, offers hope to the millions of victims of nervous system-related disorders. Proneuron Biotechnologies is developing therapies for neurological disorders, including spinal cord injury (SCI), other central nervous system trauma and back injuries. Our products are based on proprietary technology for modulating the interaction between the nervous system and the immune system. Proneuron is enrolling a total of 61 patients suffering from complete spinal cord injuries in a Phase II multi-center clinical study. Patients will be implanted with ProCord. Study sites must be informed of a candidate patient within a few days of the spinal cord injury to allow time to complete the necessary tests and procedures within 14 days of injury.
