Lineage Cell Therapeutics, Inc. (NYSE American and TASE: LCTX), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing “off the shelf” allogeneic cell therapies for serious medical conditions, today reported its first quarter 2026 financial and operating results. The Company will host a conference call today at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time to discuss these results and to provide a business update.
“This quarter, we continued to build on our developmental and clinical accomplishments. Most notably, we applied our proprietary cell manufacturing technology platform, AlloSCOPE™ (Allogeneic, Scalable, Consistent, Off-the-shelf, Pluripotent Cell Engineering), to launch COR1, our new, wholly-owned corneal endothelial cell therapy program. COR1 is a preclinical asset which we believe benefits from our existing ophthalmology and manufacturing expertise and represents a natural next application of our platform. We also achieved our first milestone with our AlloSCOPE 5D manufacturing initiative, aimed at addressing the challenges of large scale production of undifferentiated pluripotent stem cells. If successful at a larger scale, the overall goal is to leverage this initiative, together with a differentiation protocol, to address the insufficient supply of islet cells needed to support a potential treatment of Type 1 Diabetes,” stated Brian M. Culley, Lineage CEO.
“In parallel, we advanced our DOSED study, successfully administering OPC1 to a second chronic SCI participant using a novel delivery system. We also established a new Scientific Advisory Board with recognized and established cell therapy executive Joachim Fruebis, PhD, as its founding member. Dr. Fruebis’ extensive experience across ophthalmology, neurology, diabetes, and other key therapeutic areas will help drive the evolution of our cell therapy platform and help to translate our innovations into clinical and commercial success. We look forward to additional updates on further appointments to our SAB throughout the year.”
“This will be an exciting year for Lineage. Our current cell therapy pipeline features seven separate cell types, two of which are in the clinic, and each of which is in development for a discrete indication addressing a significant unmet need. We remain focused on advancing our innovative pipeline through disciplined internal spending and support from external partners, in line with our long-term strategy of creating a leading portfolio of cell-based transplant programs, all based on our core technology and our AlloSCOPE manufacturing platform,” concluded Mr. Culley.

About the AlloSCOPE™ (Allogeneic, Scalable, Consistent, Off-the-shelf, Pluripotent Cell Engineering) Platform
The AlloSCOPE (Allogeneic, Scalable, Consistent, Off-the-shelf, Pluripotent Cell Engineering) platform highlights the key attributes of Lineage’s in-house technology and describes a differentiation and production modality from which Lineage can manufacture millions of doses of an allogeneic, cell-based product derived from a single initial pluripotent cell line, conferring consistent, cost-effective, and scalable cell-based production and which can be applied across multiple programs. From our proprietary AlloSCOPE platform, we successfully completed a current Good Manufacturing Practice (“cGMP”) production run from a custom, two-tiered cell banking system, featuring a genetically-stable master cell bank (MCB) created from a single, well-characterized pluripotent cell line, which generated a working cell bank (WCB), which then provided the source material for two final cell-based product candidates. AlloSCOPE “5D” describes an application of AlloSCOPE with the goal of higher scale production with reduced manipulation.
About Lineage Cell Therapeutics, Inc.
Lineage Cell Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing novel allogeneic, or “off the shelf”, cell therapies for serious medical conditions. Lineage’s programs are based on its proprietary cell-based technology platform, AlloSCOPE™ (Allogeneic, Scalable, Consistent, Off-the-shelf, Pluripotent Cell Engineering), and associated development and manufacturing capabilities. From this proprietary AlloSCOPE platform, Lineage develops, manufactures, and tests specialized human cells with anatomical and physiological functions similar or substantially identical to cells found naturally in the human body. These cells are created by applying directed differentiation protocols to established, well-characterized, and self-renewing pluripotent cell lines. These protocols generate cells with characteristics associated with specific and desired developmental lineages, and in some instances may be designed to have additional beneficial properties. Cells derived from such lineages 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 augment the patient’s functional activity. Lineage’s pipeline currently includes: (i) OpRegen® cell therapy, a retinal pigment epithelial cell therapy in Phase 2a development under a worldwide collaboration with Roche and Genentech, a member of the Roche Group, for the treatment of geographic atrophy secondary to age-related macular degeneration; (ii) OPC1, an oligodendrocyte progenitor cell therapy in Phase 1/2a development for the treatment of spinal cord injuries; (iii) ReSonanceTM (ANP1), an auditory neuronal progenitor cell therapy in preclinical development under a collaboration with William Demant Invest A/S for the potential treatment of auditory neuropathy; (iv) PNC1, a photoreceptor neural cell therapy research initiative being evaluated for development for the potential treatment of vision loss due to photoreceptor dysfunction or damage; (v) RND1, a novel hypoimmune induced pluripotent stem cell line being evaluated for development under a gene editing partnership; (vi) ILT1, a cell therapy manufacturing initiative focused on the issue of large-scale production of undifferentiated pluripotent cells, which if successful could be evaluated for the production of islet cells to support a potential treatment of Type 1 Diabetes; and (vii) COR1, a corneal endothelial disease cell therapy in preclinical development for the potential treatment of corneal endothelial disease.
