Randal Mills, president and CEO of Osiris Therapeutics, said: “We’re pleased with the progress we’ve made across many of our programs including Crohn’s disease, type 1 diabetes and GvHD. Given our strong balance sheet, financial discipline and practical approach to drug development, we are well-positioned to bring this first-in-class technology to the patients who need it most.”
