Pharmaceutical terroir is the idea that the place, people, and/or process are locally distinct, and thus required for successful production. Ironically, while I would like to coin this term, I don’t actually believe pharmaceutical terroir exists in cell therapy. $LCTX

Had a tough moment yesterday when I learned a friend is on the $RVMD phase 3 trial. A solemn reminder how important this new medicine stuff is. $LCTX

Astellas data update at ARVO. +5 to +9 letters at 1yr. If you believe delivering a suspension of RPE can increase vision and improve anatomy in atrophic AMD, Lineage, Eyestem, Luxa, and Astellas are providing independent contributory evidence to that mechanism. $LCTX

Stopped for a pic at the Fischli and Weiss “Rock on top of Another Rock”, which evokes the beauty of pushing limits. An inspirational idea applicable to our regenerative medicine mission. Thanks for hosting us in Basel, Roche! $LCTX

Spent the weekend talking with retina docs at #AAO2025 and noticed our name on the exhibition floor. Thanks for the great work, Genentech! Inspiring progress. And now on to NYC…#LCTX

Despite disfavor among certain costly and/or commercially unmanufacturable CGT programs, it’s great to see rising support for “off the shelf” solutions in “non-cology” indications like GA. $LCTX tinyurl.com/Astellas-cell-th…

Flying back to SAN today. Have been away from home 15 of the past 19 days. I appreciate my wife and kids being such great “behind the scenes” supporters of me and $LCTX!

Tracking only fast-growing GA patients can reduce the number of years needed to (maybe?) show vision preservation (btw, that’s years with a median patient age of 79), but your addressable population gets unavoidably smaller. Treat only the foveal-spared (30%) and forfeit 70% of the eligible. I suppose it makes sense if it opens the EU hubs.li/Q03FWY2l0. $LCTX
