Got this today
The 2008 Lock of the Year Is
Neuralstem Inc (CUR)
Current Price: $2.82 buy up to $5.00
CUR engages in developing and commercializing treatments based on transplanting human neural stem cells. CUR is the only company in the world that I believe has the potential to cure paralyzed humans and make them walk again. The company has already helped paralyzed rats walk again.
CUR uses patent-protected technology that allows them to produce neural stem cells with the ability to control the differentiation of the cells into physiologically relevant human neurons and glia. Once approved by the FDA, these cells could be transplanted into humans as treatments for currently incurable diseases.
By the end of December, CUR is expected to file their first ever Investigational New Drug (IND) application with the FDA. The first IND will be for the treatment of Ischemic Paraplegia, a form of paraplegia that sometimes results from complications in the repair of aortic aneurysms.
CUR expects to begin Phase 1 trials for Ischemic Paraplegia in early 2008!
CUR expects to file a second IND for Traumatic Spinal Cord Injury in the first half of 2008 and begin Phase 1 trials for Traumatic Spinal Cord Injury in the second half of 2008. In late 2008, CUR expects to file a third IND for ALS (also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease).
Check out this article that came out about CUR one week ago in the Maryland Gazette.
