Why this estimate
  • Baseline phase 2 → approval rate +15.3pp
    Industry-wide phase 2 drugs reach approval ~15.3% of the time (BIO/Informa 2023 industry benchmark across all therapeutic areas).
Predicted approval windows by jurisdiction (conditional on FDA approval)
Regulator Country Likely year Lag vs FDA
FDA US 2031–2034
EMA EU 2032–2035 +0.7 yr
MHRA GB 2032–2035 +0.7 yr

Mechanism of action

This process can help to treat various blood-related disorders by replenishing the recipient's bone marrow with healthy stem cells. The exact mechanism of action is not fully understood, but it is believed to involve the engraftment of the donor stem cells into the recipient's bone marrow, leading to the production of new blood cells.
