4 Essential Lessons for Adopting Predictive Analytics in HealthcareHealth Catalyst
Predictive analytics is quite a popular current topic. Unfortunately, there are many potential side tracks or pit falls for those that do not approach this carefully. Fortunately for healthcare, there are numerous existing models from other industries that are very efficient at risk stratification in the realm of population management. David Crocket, PhD shares 4 key pitfalls to avoid for those beginning predictive analytics. These include
1) confusing data with insight
2) confusing insight with value
3) overestimating the ability to interpret the data
4) underestimating the challenge of implementation.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

Muktapishti is a traditional Ayurvedic preparation made from Shoditha Mukta (Purified Pearl), is believed to help regulate thyroid function and reduce symptoms of hyperthyroidism due to its cooling and balancing properties. Clinical evidence on its efficacy remains limited, necessitating further research to validate its therapeutic benefits.
CDSCO and Phamacovigilance {Regulatory body in India}NEHA GUPTA
The Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) is India's national regulatory body for pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Operating under the Directorate General of Health Services, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India, the CDSCO is responsible for approving new drugs, conducting clinical trials, setting standards for drugs, controlling the quality of imported drugs, and coordinating the activities of State Drug Control Organizations by providing expert advice.
Pharmacovigilance, on the other hand, is the science and activities related to the detection, assessment, understanding, and prevention of adverse effects or any other drug-related problems. The primary aim of pharmacovigilance is to ensure the safety and efficacy of medicines, thereby protecting public health.
In India, pharmacovigilance activities are monitored by the Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI), which works closely with CDSCO to collect, analyze, and act upon data regarding adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Together, they play a critical role in ensuring that the benefits of drugs outweigh their risks, maintaining high standards of patient safety, and promoting the rational use of medicines.
Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Annually ~800,000 first time stroke victims in
U.S., >2.2 Million (U.S. + EU + Japan), and 16.9
Million globally
Note: >3.4 Million strokes annually in China
(including 2.35 Million first time ischemic strokes)
Tremendousunmet need: tPA must be
administered within 3-4½ hours of ischemic
stroke & MR within 6 hours (currently used on
~10% of ischemic stroke patients)
With an expanding aging population globally
(and increasing obesity in U.S.), the clinical
need and commercial opportunity are
expected to increase dramatically in years
ahead

(2) Intravenous
administration of
MultiStem
(4) Simultaneous downregulation of inflammatory
cascade and upregulation of reparative immune
response & other repair mechanisms
(3) Cells migrate to spleen and peripheral
immune system and affect key pathways in the
brain
MultiStem works through regulation of multiple factors and
pathways important to brain recovery following stroke
(i.e. downregulates neuroinflammation & upregulates repair)
(1) Following a stroke a hyperinflammatory response is
initiated resulting in exacerbation of tissue loss & scarring
in brain (preventing recovery) – much of this response
emanates from the spleen (a key immune organ)
Ischemic
Stroke

Spleen Role in Inflammatory Damage in the
Brain following Stroke
Fluoro-Jade Stain
Nissl Stain
In preclinical models of ischemic stroke, removing the spleen before a surgically induced stroke significantly reduces
the inflammatory damage that typically occurs in the brain (but also creates permanent immunological impairment)
Note: MCAO = Middle
Cerebral Artery Occlusion
(i.e. ischemic stroke)
Major loss of brain tissue
following MCAO stroke is
due to hyperinflammatory
response

23. Recently Announced Alliance
Expansion
• Healios obtains expanded exclusive license to certain programs in Japan and globally plus a
time limited Right of First Negotiation (ROFN) for option to certain programs in China
- Under terms of the collaboration expansion Healios obtained development and commercialization rights to
include treatment of ARDS and certain transplantation indications in Japan, plus defined Ophthalmological
indications and rights to Organ Bud based treatments globally (for $20 million license fee)
- Healios also obtained an exclusive ROFN (effective until September 1st, 2018) for an option to develop and
commercialize one or more MultiStem programs in China for ischemic stroke, ARDS, trauma or an alternative
indication, and a license to certain technology (for $15 million option fee)
• Initial economic impact for ATHX = $41.1 million ($21.1 million in equity + $20 million in
license fees…plus up to ~$360 million in potential milestone payments + royalties)
- Initial equity investment of $21.1 million completed in March, 2018 (at 13% premium to prior day closing price) in
exchange for an initial 8.7% equity stake
- ATHX also received $20 million license fees - $12.5 million received in June, 2018… with an additional $7.5 million
to be received in 3 quarterly payments of $2.5 million (beginning September 1st, 2018)
- Healios obtained ability via warrant to acquire up to 19.9% stake in ATHX – however, 80% of warrant exercisability
is contingent upon execution of China option by September 1st, 2018
- Additional indications of common interest under discussion
Expanded Framework – Announced June 7th, 2018

24. MASTERS-2: Pivotal Phase 3 Study in Ischemic Stroke
(Authorized by FDA under SPA, w/ Fast Track and RMAT designations)
• Intravenous administration of investigation product (MultiStem cell therapy or placebo) within 18-36 hours post
onset of ischemic stroke…Note: may be administered on top of standard of care for eligible patients
- 300 subjects
- Double-blind, randomized, placebo controlled study
- 1:1 ratio (MultiStem [n=150] or placebo [n=150])
- Same dosing profile for MASTERS-1 (1.2 B cells, administered IV)
- NIHSS 8-20 at baseline
- Cortical cerebral infarct
- IV tPA, mechanical thrombectomy, or both treatments (for limited number of subjects) allowed if patient not
showing substantial improvement
- 90 day primary clinical assessment, 12 month follow-up (e.g. secondary endpoints)
• Evaluating safety
- Mortality, adverse events, infections, infusion reactions
• Primary efficacy endpoint = mRS score at Day 90 evaluated by shift analysis
• Key secondary efficacy variables include differences between MultiStem and placebo treatments with respect
to the following:
- Proportion of subjects achieving an excellent outcome (mRS ≤ 1, NIHSS ≤ 1, and Barthel Index ≥ 95) at Day
365
- Proportion of subjects achieving an excellent outcome (mRS ≤ 1, NIHSS ≤ 1, and Barthel Index ≥ 95) at Day 90
- Proportion of subjects with mRS score of ≤ 2 at Day 90
Trial Overview – (focused on North America and Europe – initiated and enrolling)
Note: Bolded indicate changes from Phase 2 B01-02 trial design.

27. Opportunity in Trauma
Trauma is the leading cause of death and serious disability among
individuals age <45 in the U.S.
– Leading cause of life years lost among individuals up to age 75… and third leading
cause of death overall
– Significant impact on military personnel (battlefield trauma & VA patients)
– Huge economic and quality of life impact
ATHX team and independent collaborators have worked extensively in
several areas of trauma (numerous publications)
– Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)
– Spinal Cord injury
– ARDS (may be precipitated by trauma)
Mechanistically the hyperinflammatory response following trauma is the
same as for stroke, w/ similar effects
– Emanates from the spleen & peripheral immune system, causing secondary damage
– Response frequently results in immunodepression – with patients susceptible to a
range of complications that inhibit or complicate recovery
ATHX collaborating with leading Tier 1 Trauma Center in U.S. with funding
provided by MTEC (Department of Defense) for planned Phase 2 trial
Critical Care Segment

28. Opportunity in Acute Pulmonary Medicine
Acute Respiratory DistressSyndrome (ARDS) afflicts approximately 400,000 to
500,000 patients in Europe, the United States and Japan annually, and >670,000
patients in China
– ARDS represents a major area of unmet medical need, with a high rate of mortality and high
level of morbidity, and typically requires extended intensive care hospitalization (e.g. ICU)
– Very high cost of care and QOL impact Another potential multibillion $ market opportunity
MultiStem conveys benefit through multiple mechanisms relevant to acute
pulmonary inflammatory damage
– Published data illustrates impact on reducing inflammatory damage in pulmonary system
– Upregulation of reparative cell types and pathways
Athersys and collaborators have evaluated potential of MultiStem in pulmonary
area Exploratory clinical trial ongoing
– Completion of enrollment targeted in 2018 (30 day primary endpoint)
– £2 Million in funding for clinical development in U.K.
(w/ additional funding from NIH)
– Evaluating safety, functional improvements, impact on morbidity
& mortality, and other parameters
28
30. Phase 2 Clinical Trial in Acute Myocardial Infarction
Treating most common type of myocardial infarction (NSTEMI)
– Trial builds on successful Phase 1 study data
– NSTEMI incidence has been relatively stable, but expected to increase further
with aging demographics and other factors (i.e. increased rates of obesity,
diabetes)
– NSTEMI results in higher short term mortality (e.g. 30 day) and 1 year mortality
(~25% mortality at one year) compared to STEMI (~12% mortality at one year)
Clinical assessment
– Primary efficacy: myocardial perfusion as determined by MRI at 4 months
– Also evaluating MACE and QOL assessment (e.g. EQ5D)
– Evaluating improvement in multiple cardiovascular performance parameters
(including LVEF, LV dimensions)
Status: Trial ongoing
