Japan's panel backs first iPS cell therapies for Parkinson’s and heart disease, pending minister approval.
A Japanese expert panel has recommended approval for two regenerative medicines made from induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells, potentially making them the first of their kind globally if cleared by the health minister.
The therapies, targeting Parkinson’s disease and heart disease, are set for conditional approval with ongoing safety and effectiveness monitoring for up to seven years.
This move marks a major milestone in regenerative medicine, building on Japan’s pioneering work in iPS cell research since their discovery nearly two decades ago.
