DrugBank Description: ORBCEL-C™ is the trade name of a product composed of highly purified stromal cells derived from the human umbilical cord. The isolated cells are expanded in culture and are able to be used allogenically -- meaning that one donor’s cells can be given to other unrelated patients. These cells are CD362 enriched umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs); UC-MSCs share stemness markers with both embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs); this feature allows them to be hypoimmunogenic and non-inducible for tumorigenesis. Regarding the modifications of these UC-MSCs, CD362, also known as syndecan-2, is a surface marker identified on MSCs with enhanced clonogenicity and immunomodulatory properties. Enrichment of CD362 expression in MSCs is being investigated for its role in immune modulation of injured tissue.

DrugBank MoA: The mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) of ORBCEL-C™ act through release of factors which reduce inflammatory responses, promote blood vessel formation, and have the ability to demonstrate immunomodulatory effects. Allogeneic UC-MSCs are also being investigated in orthopedic applications for cartilage and bone regeneration; these UC-MSCs are a valuable allogeneic source of cells as these cells are from a discarded material with virtually unlimited availability. Specifically to orthopedics, UC-MSCs have potential for treatment of chondral and osteochondral lesions, and bone defects as a universal off-the-shelf product.
