Our mission is to pioneer a new branch of medicine based on transplanting specific cell types to patients with serious medical conditions
Lineage is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing novel allogeneic, or “off-the-shelf,” cell therapies for serious neurological and ophthalmic conditions. Our programs are based on our proprietary, cell-based technology platform and associated development, formulation, manufacturing and delivery capabilities. From this platform, we design, develop, manufacture, and test specialized human cells with anatomical and physiological functions similar or identical to cells found naturally in the human body. The cells we manufacture are produced by applying directed differentiation processes to established well-characterized, and self-renewing pluripotent cell lines. These processes are based on specific developmental lineages and generate cells with desired characteristics. Functional cells developed from such lineages that are relevant to the underlying condition are transplanted into patients in an effort to replace or support cells that are absent or dysfunctional due to degenerative disease, aging, or traumatic injury, and to restore or enhance the patient’s functional activity. Our business strategy is to efficiently leverage our technology platform and our development and manufacturing capabilities to advance our programs internally or in conjunction with strategic partners to further enhance their value and probability of success.
