Mesoblast Limited is a global leader in allogeneic cellular medicines, focused on developing treatments for inflammatory and immunologic diseases. Founded in 2004 by Dr. Silviu Itescu, the company builds on proprietary mesenchymal lineage cell technology to create off-the-shelf, donor-derived therapies. These therapies are designed to modulate immune responses and promote tissue repair in conditions where existing medical options are limited or ineffective.
The company’s most advanced product, Alofisel® (darvadstrocel), has been approved in Europe for the treatment of complex perianal fistulas in adults with Crohn’s disease. In addition, Mesoblast’s lead investigational candidate, remestemcel-L, is in late-stage development in the United States for the treatment of pediatric patients with steroid-refractory acute graft-versus-host disease. Beyond these programs, Mesoblast maintains a diversified pipeline targeting heart failure, low back pain due to disc degeneration, and other immune-driven disorders, with multiple Phase 2 and Phase 3 trials underway.
Headquartered in Melbourne, Australia, with a major corporate office in New York City, Mesoblast operates research and manufacturing facilities across North America, Europe, and the Asia–Pacific region. The company collaborates with strategic partners and regulatory authorities worldwide to advance its programs, ensuring broad geographic reach in both clinical development and commercial distribution.
Under the leadership of founder and CEO Dr. Silviu Itescu, Mesoblast emphasizes rigorous clinical research, regulatory compliance, and scalable manufacturing processes. The company’s management team combines expertise in cell biology, clinical development, and partnership licensing to support its mission of bringing transformative therapies to patients with high unmet medical needs.
