Update: Headway on positive developments

Mesoblast is steadily advancing its pipeline, presenting positive Phase II data at the American Diabetes Association in June for MPC-300-IV in moderate-to-severe diabetic nephropathy. The company is seeking an accelerated regulatory path on findings in a large patient population with little alternative for treatment. The recent agreement with Celgene, which entailed a net A$58.5m equity purchase in return for first right of refusal on products in certain disease areas, provides Mesoblast with a capital injection and potential development/commercialisation partner. Meanwhile, an imminent regulatory decision in Japan for MSC-100-IV in acute graft vs host disease (aGvHD) could prove a significant share price catalyst. If approved, MSC-100-IV would be Mesoblast’s first product to market.
