eGenesis/EGEN-2784

eGenesis announced landmark clinical data showing Tim Andrews achieved nine months of dialysis independence with the EGEN-2784 xenokidney transplant, a record duration for a pig-kidney graft in a living human. The data demonstrate the potential for engineered organs to serve as durable transplants and bridges to human allografts.

• Nine-month dialysis independence is a milestone for xenotransplantation.
• Data shows durability of multi-gene-edited pig kidney in human recipient.
• Demonstrates feasibility of pig kidney as transplant option for ESRD patients.
