The Xenome Project Mission Statement

   Establish the EU at the forefront of global xenotransplantation research, a field with huge potential for the treatment of end-stage organ failure.

   Generate in vivo efficacy data and provide experimental evidence that “engineered” pigs, combined with new immunosuppressive reagents, allow long-term survival of porcine organs transplanted in non-human primates.

   Assess new immunosuppressive regimens and agents for efficient inhibition of immunological rejection. Gain an understanding of the physiology of long-term transplanted xenografts in primate recipients.

   Establish the necessary safety framework to allow progression of xenotransplantation to the clinic and provide a strong ethical, social, educational through direct engagement of the public and regulatory framework for Xenotransplantation. (9)
