Bird Foundation Approves Additional Milestone Payment to Kadimastem and Itolerance for Continued Co-Development of Type 1 Diabetes Cell Therapy NLS Pharmaceutics Ltd. announced that the Israel-U.S. Binational Industrial Research and Development Foundation has approved another milestone-based funding payment to Kadimastem Ltd., iTolerance, Inc. The milestone payment is based on the significant progress demonstrated by the companies in the co-development of iTOL-102, a novel cell therapy targeting a potential cure for Type 1 diabetes without the need for life-long immunosuppression. This news follows the February 2025 announcement by NLS and Kadimastem regarding the successful completion of a Type B Pre-IND meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The FDA provided constructive guidance on the clinical development pathway, enabling the companies to advance toward initiating First-in-Human clinical trials of iTOL-102. The BIRD Foundation's approval of a fifth disbursement of funds is based on the program's recent scientific and regulatory progress. The milestone payment approved by the BIRD Foundation amounts to approximately NIS 564,400 ($166,000 USD), bringing the total support from the BIRD Foundation to nearly NIS 3 million ($882,352 USD) to date. NLS and Kadimastem believe that the continued financial backing reflects the BIRD Foundation's ongoing confidence in the collaboration between Kadimastem and iTolerance and the clinical promise of iTOL-102. Kadimastem's IsletRx technology, a scalable, stem cell-derived source of insulin-producing islet-like cells, is combined with iTolerance's proprietary iTOL-100 immunomodulatory platform in iTOL-102. In preclinical studies, the combined therapy demonstrated functional insulin secretion and disease reversal in diabetic animal models. The product has been tested at the Diabetes Research Institute at the University of Miami and is regarded as a potential breakthrough in transplant-based diabetes therapies. The companies are currently preparing for safety toxicology studies and the initiation of clinical trial submissions based on FDA guidance. Anuncio • May 19

Kadimastem and iTolerance Successfully Complete Pre-IND Meeting with the FDA for its Type 1 Diabetes Treatment NLS Pharmaceutics Ltd. and Kadimastem Ltd. announced the result from the Type B pre-IND meeting held by Kadimastem and iTolerance with a committee of the U.S Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") on February 24, 2025, regarding the development of iTOL-102, a potential cure for diabetes that would not require life-long chronic immune system suppression. iTOL-102 is an investigational biologic for the treatment and potential cure of Type 1 Diabetes consisting of Kadimastem's allogenic human stem cell-derived pancreatic islets (IsletRx cells) combined with iTolerance's immunomodulator (iTOL-100). Kadimastem and iTolerance believe that the completion of the pre-IND meeting is a significant milestone toward the clinical development of iTOL-102, an on-going collaborative research initiative between iTolerance and Kadimastem, funded in part by grants received from the Israel-U.S. Binational Industrial Research and Development Foundation.iTOL-102 was evaluated at the fast-track center for testing at the Diabetes Research Institute ("DRI") at the University of Miami School of Medicine, where it was designated as a potential breakthrough transplantation approach for the treatment of Type 1 Diabetes, as the novel combination of tolerance-inducing agent and human stem cell-derived islets. iTOL-102 demonstrated functional insulin release and disease reversal in an animal model, with full compatibility between IsletRx cells and iTOL-100.Prior to the meeting with the FDA, Kadimastem and iTolerance received a preliminary response document from the FDA, providing critical feedback on their current preclinical and clinical development plans. This guidance is instrumental in moving forward with the next stages of development. Based on the feedback provided at the pre-IND meeting, Kadimastem and iTolerance are now updating their plans for a safety toxicology study and the preparation of a First-in-Human clinical trial. Kadimastem believes its collaboration with iTolerance signifies a potentially transformative step in diabetes treatment, paving the way towards the potential development of iTOL-100 and requesting regulatory approvals for commercialization of a potential cure for type 1 diabetes.iTOL-100 is an immunomodulatory microgel technology being developed by iTolerance designed to reduce or eliminate the need for life-long chronic systemic immunosuppression following transplantation of allogenic cells. In a preclinical diabetic rodent model designed by iTolerance, iTOL-100 was shown by iTolerance to be compatible with Kadimastem's IsletRx human stem cell-derived islets.Kadimastem's IsletRx is a clinical-grade product candidate comprising human pancreatic islet-like cells capable of secreting insulin. IsletRx, a preparation of human stem cell-derived islets developed by Kadimastem, is a scalable and virtually unlimited source of insulin-producing cells which could address the critical shortage of donor islets for transplantation. This innovative therapy may effectively detect glucose levels in the body and produce the necessary amounts of insulin and glucagon. Anuncio • Feb 11

NLS Pharmaceutics and Kadimastem Announce the Submission of a Request by Kadimastem and iTolerance, Inc. for an FDA Pre-IND Meeting for an Innovative Breakthrough Type 1 Diabetes Treatment NLS Pharmaceutics Ltd. and Kadimastem Ltd. (Kadimastem) announced in collaboration with iTolerance, Inc, (iTolerance that a request for a Pre-Investigational New Drug ("Pre-IND") meeting has been submitted by Kadimastem and iTolerance to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for iTOL102, an investigational biologic consisting of allogenic human stem cell-derived pancreatic islets combined with an immunomodulator for the treatment of Type 1 Diabetes. Kadimastem believes that this collaboration signifies a potentially transformative step in diabetes treatment. This submission comes after a successful INTERACT ("Initial Targeted Engagement for Regulatory Advice on CBER/CDER Products") meeting, which is a meeting at a specific time early in the product development, between Kadimastem, iTolerance, and the FDA earlier this year. The submission is a significant milestone toward the clinical development of iTOL102, an on-going collaborative research initiative between iTolerance and Kadimastem, funded in part by the Israel-United States Binational Industrial Research and Development Foundation ("BIRD"). iTOL102 combines iTolerance's proprietary SA-FasL microgel (known as iTOL-100), an immune modulator, and IsletRx, insulin-producing islet cells derived from human pluripotent stem cells, to generate an innovative treatment intended for the potential cure of type 1 diabetes. iTOL-100, an immunomodulatory microgel technology being developed by iTolerance is designed to reduce or eliminate the need for life-long chronic systemic immunosuppression following transplantation of allogenic cells.

Kadimastem Receives Approval of Patent Registration for Its Cell Selection and Enrichment Technology Used to Develop Its IsletRx Treatment for Diabetes in a Third Territory Kadimastem Ltd. has been granted its third patent approval for the company's innovative cell selection and enrichment technology and its use in the production of IsletRx, the company's treatment and potential cure for diabetes. The third patent was awarded by the Israel Patent Office. The patent for the Company's technology was also recently approved and successfully registered in Japan and Australia. This trend is likely to inspire other patent approvals in other important territories such as in the US. The ability to select and enrich only the highest functioning and puresbt islet cells from the expanded and differentiated population of pluripotent stem cells enables the maximum therapeutic effect. The Israel patent is particularly important as it reconfirms the company's production is high quality and more advanced than others. As a result, Kadimastem now has a competitive advantage with regard to future unique collaborations with international companies like Implant Therapeutics Inc. On June 8, 2022, Kadimastem announced that it signed an agreement with Implant Therapeutics Inc. for use of "Immune Evasive Cell" iACT cells, which are implant cells that the immune system does not recognize as foreign to the body and as such can prevent transplant rejection. A joint feasibility study is underway. If successful, the iACTTM cells could be a good cell source for Kadimastem to create its glucose sensing, insulin producing pancreatic cells, the basis for IsletRx, without the need of immune protection or immunosuppression.
