Sernova Corp. (TSX:SVA; OTCQB:SEOVF) announced promising preclinical results for its partnership with Evotec SE, focusing on iPSC-derived islet-like clusters (ILCs) for treating Type 1 Diabetes (T1D). Key findings showcased that Evotec's scalable GMP manufacturing process yields ILCs with high insulin-producing beta cell content and successful glycemic control in diabetic mouse models. Results indicated that ILCs implanted in Sernova's Cell Pouch demonstrated blood sugar normalization akin to human islets over a 320-day study. The companies are on track for an IND filing and Phase 1/2 clinical trial in 2024, aiming to offer a commercially viable off-the-shelf treatment for diabetes. The preclinical data was presented at the IPITA/HSCI/JDRF Summit in April 2023, underscoring the significant potential for a 'functional cure' for T1D.

Sernova Corp. (OTCQB:SEOVF), a leader in cell therapeutics, announces that CEO Dr. Philip Toleikis will present at the Cell & Gene Meeting on the Med in Barcelona, Spain, from April 12-14, 2023.
