On December 22, NouvNeu001 Injection, an independently developed product by Nurosion Therapeutics, achieved the Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT) designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Earlier in August of the same year, this injection had already secured the Fast Track Designation (FTD) from the FDA for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. It thus became the world's first iPSC (induced pluripotent stem cell) product to obtain both FDA FTD and RMAT qualifications simultaneously.

The RMAT designation represents an accelerated approval process, specifically crafted to expedite the market entry of regenerative medicine therapies. At present, the primary focus of Parkinson's disease treatment lies in symptom management. In contrast, NouvNeu001 Injection aims to reverse the disease's progression through cell replacement therapy.

Nurosion Therapeutics employs its proprietary 'AI+chemical induction' technology to achieve the directed differentiation of specific dopaminergic neuron subtypes. Additionally, it utilizes a single-track stereotactic delivery method, positioning its therapeutic effects at the forefront internationally.

The drug has exhibited comprehensive data on safety and efficacy in Phase I clinical trials, earning high praise from the FDA. Looking ahead, the FDA will work closely with Nurosion Therapeutics to expedite the drug's market introduction.
