Abstract: A population of human polygonal RPE cells is disclosed. At least 95% of the cells thereof co-express premelanosome protein (PMEL17) and cellular retinaldehyde binding protein (CRALBP), wherein the trans-epithelial electrical resistance of the cells is greater than 100 ohms. Methods of generating same are also disclosed.

Abstract: A method of treating metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma in a subject in need thereof is provided. The method comprising administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of each of a peptide set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1, an anti PD-1 and a chemotherapy, thereby treating the metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

Abstract: Presented herein are ready to administer (RTA) retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cell therapy compositions for the treatment of retinal degenerative diseases and injuries. A method of formulating human RPE cells for administration to a subject directly after thawing and of formulating RPE cell therapy compositions for cryopreservation and administration of the cryopreserved composition to a subject subsequent to thawing are also presented. In another aspect, the RTA composition may be formulated as a thaw and inject (TAI) composition, whereby the composition is administered by injection subsequent to thawing.

Abstract: A method of qualifying whether a cell population is a suitable therapeutic for treating an eye condition is disclosed. The method comprises analyzing co-expression of premelanosome protein (PMEL17) and at least one polypeptide selected from the group consisting of cellular retinaldehyde binding protein (CRALBP), lecithin retinol acyltransferase (LRAT) and sex determining region Y-box 9 (SOX 9) in the population of cells.

Abstract: A method of treating a subject with dry-form age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is disclosed. The method comprises administering into the subretina of the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a pharmaceutical composition comprising human RPE cells, wherein at least 95% of the cells thereof co-express premelanosome protein (PMEL17) and cellular retinaldehyde binding protein (CRALBP), and wherein the trans-epithelial electrical resistance of the cells is greater than 100 ohms to the subject, thereby treating the subject.
