ALD-401 ALD-401 • (Need better logo here)
Experimental stem cell based stroke treatment
ALD-401Experimental stem cell based stroke
treatment
Uses a patient’s own stem cells
Given after a stroke has happened
Being studied to find out if it can help improve stroke recovery.
Understanding Ischemic Stroke
Ischemic stroke
Blood flow to the brain is suddenly cut off by a blocked blood vessel.
Brain cells begin to die because they aren’t getting the oxygen they need.
Stroke Related Complications
Paralysis
Thinking
Speaking
Emotions
Stroke Treatments
Stroke Treatments
Drug therapies that are given during or shortly after a stroke happens.
Work to minimize brain damage by opening up blocked blood vessels.
Stroke Treatments
Post stroke rehabilitation to help stroke patients relearn lost skills.
Stroke Treatments
Researchers are working to find and develop new treatments.

Stroke Treatment Research
Researchers believe ALD-401 may work to improve stroke recovery by helping the injured brain heal itself.
ALD-401
Stroke Treatment Research
Treatment is made from a patient’s own bone marrow cells.
ALD-401 uses specific cells believed to play a role in the repair of tissues that have been damaged by a lack of oxygen.
ALD-401 Clinical Trial Background Information
ALD-401 cells are selected using a special sorting process.
Delivered by injection into an artery supplying blood to the brain, close to where the blockage had formed.
Pictures neededHere….(or can use file)
ALD-401 Clinical Trial Background Information:Early studies
Animal Studies: ALD-401 helped improve recovery in the animals that had a stroke.
