About Remedy Cell
Remedy Cell is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery and development of cell-derived, cell-free, breakthrough therapies for areas of unmet need in fibrotic disease. Our team consists of distinguished management, scientists, clinical experts, and international thought leaders who are working together to revolutionize the treatment of pulmonary fibrosis and other fibrotic diseases.
Remedy Cell is developing novel therapies for treatment of fibrotic disorders. Our science enables tissue repair and restores organ function. We have assembled a highly experienced team of experts to advance our pipeline of secretome-derived therapies with the goal of transforming the way fibrotic diseases are treated.

Drug Development
Our work is inspired by patients—they give our work purpose every day and remind us of why it is we do what we do.
Remedy Cell Ltd. was founded with a singular goal in mind—to leverage scientific advances in cell-derived therapies to develop novel treatments for patients suffering from fibrotic diseases.
The Activated Remedy cell Secretome (ARcS) is a novel proprietary platform that is derived from activated mesenchymal stem cells that holds the potential to treat a variety of fibrotic disorders. It is a cell-based cell-free modality that leverages the advantages of cell therapy and overcomes its disadvantages.
Our Approach
We believe that the best solution for patients may not lie in a single targeted approach, the mandate approach of drug development, but in a unique combination of proteins and other factors contained in RC-0315. We’ve dedicated ourselves to this simple concept that a multifactorial approach is required to successfully treat complex conditions driven by multiple pathological pathways such as Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) and other fibrotic disorders.
Our Focus
We are focused exclusively on diseases known to be caused by the morphological changes and abnormal buildup of collagen and fibrotic tissue in various organs. Fibrosis can occur in many tissues within the body, such as the lungs, liver, kidney, brain, and heart, typically as a result of intensive inflammation or damage
The Unmet Need
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a complex chronic disease that affects the tissue environment of the air sacs, or alveoli, in the lungs. This condition develops when interstitial lung tissue becomes thick and stiff with an excessive buildup of collagen. Over time, these changes can cause permanent scarring in the lungs, called fibrosis, that making it progressively more difficult to breathe.
IPF affects up to 110,000 patients in Europe and approximately 100,000 patients in the US. These patients have a median survival rate of approximately three years, worse than many cancers. In the US alone, approximately 40,000 patients per year die from IPF.
There is currently no cure and IPF patients are not likely to survive beyond 2-5 years from diagnosis. Thus, there is an urgent need for a therapeutic treatment option that effectively degrades fibrosis, regenerates tissue, and restores lung function. Our current program, entering the clinical stage, focuses on the development of innovative treatments for patients suffering from IPF.
Preclinical Development
and Proof of Concept
Remedy Cell procured Precision Cut Lung Slices (PCLS) from 10 end-stage IPF patients. In the images to the right, the Activated Remedy Cell Secretome (RC-0315) was tested and shown to promote collagen fiber degradation in human fibrotic lung tissue.
RC-0315 demonstrates a 50% reduction in perialveolar collagen fiber width in human lung tissue explant. The decrease in collagen width would potentially improve blood oxygenation and restore lung function.
RC-0315 Mechanism of Action
Using proteomics, single cell RNA sequencing and bioinformatic integration we can suggest how RC-0315 functions as a multifactorial cell-free therapy simultaneously targeting different pathological pathways underlying IPF.
RC-0315 repairs lung tissue and restores pulmonary function by hitting multiple IPF-associated targets simultaneously. Remedy Cell has identified several Active Proteins in RC-0315 that hit relevant Lung-Tissue Molecular Targets. The effect of hitting these molecular targets results in Ligand-Receptor Interactions which we believe is the basis of the regenerative mechanism of RC-0315 in preclinical models including Precision Cut Lung Slices from end-stage IPF patients.
The Ligand-Receptor Interactions include well-known molecules as well as novel targets and collectively affect several lung resident cell types known to trigger and perpetuate pulmonary fibrosis.
RC-0315’s Novel Pathways
RC-0315 is a novel multifactorial, multi-proteinacious therapy that hits multiple IPF-associated targets simultaneously. This image details how it potentially works.
In 2024 the company plans on submitting an application to the Israel Ministry of Health to conduct a Phase I/IIa Study to determine the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of RC-0315, a mesenchymal stem cell derived secretome, for the treatment of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis.
