Neuralstem, Inc. (CUR-NYSE Amex) announced on Monday of this week that it would begin enrolling the next group of patients into its ongoing Phase I ALS clinical trial. This trial seeks to demonstrate the safety of surgically injecting stem cells into the spinal cords of patients who are diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) or Lou Gehrig's disease. To date, six non-ambulatory individuals have received stem cell injections in the lumbar spinal cord, and the trial's Safety Monitoring Board has unanimously approved enrolling the next group of patients. The trial's next patients will be ambulatory, which represent earlier stages of the disease than have been tested thus far. Ultimately, 18 ALS patients are expected to be enrolled in the Phase I trial, which is underway at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia.
