| Business Description and Basis of Presentation [Text Block] |
NOTE 1 - GENERAL: | A. | Brainstorm Cell Therapeutics Inc. (formerly: Golden Hand Resources Inc. - the "Company") was incorporated in the State of Washington on September 22, 2000. | | B. | On May 21, 2004, the former major stockholders of the Company entered into a purchase agreement with a group of private investors, who purchased from the former major stockholders 6,880,000 shares of the then issued and outstanding 10,238,000 shares of Common Stock. | | C. | On July 8, 2004, the Company entered into a licensing agreement with Ramot of Tel Aviv University Ltd. ("Ramot"), to acquire certain stem cell technology (see Note 3). Subsequent to this agreement, the Company decided to focus on the development of novel cell therapies for neurodegenerative diseases based on the acquired technology and research to be conducted and funded by the Company. | Following the licensing agreement dated July 8, 2004, the management of the Company decided to abandon all old activities related to the sale of the digital data recorder product. The discontinuation of this activity was accounted for under the provision of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ASC 360-10, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". | D. | On October 25, 2004, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary in Israel, Brainstorm Cell Therapeutics Ltd. ("BCT"). | | E. | On November 22, 2004, the Company changed its name from Golden Hand Resources Inc. to Brainstorm Cell Therapeutics Inc. to better reflect its new line of business in the development of novel cell therapies for neurodegenerative diseases. BCT owns all operational property and equipment. | The Common Stock is registered and publicly traded on the OTC Markets Group service of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. under the symbol BCLI. | F. | On September 17, 2006, the Company changed the Company's fiscal year-end from March 31 to December 31. | | G. | In December 2006, the Company changed its state of incorporation from Washington to Delaware. | | H. | Since its inception, the Company has devoted substantially all of its efforts to research and development, recruiting management and technical staff, acquiring assets and raising capital. In addition, the Company has not generated revenues. | Accordingly, the Company is considered to be in the development stage, as defined in "Accounting and reporting by development Stage Enterprises" ASC 915-10. | I. | In October 2010, the Israeli Ministry of Health (“MOH”) granted clearance for a Phase I/II clinical trial using the Company’s autologous NurOwn™ stem cell therapy in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (“ALS”), subject to some additional process specifications as well as completion of the sterility validation study for tests performed. | On February 23, 2011, the Company submitted, to the MOH, all the required documents. Following approval of the MOH, a Phase I/II clinical study for ALS patients using the Company’s autologous NurOwn™ stem cell therapy (the “Clinical Trial”) was initiated in June 2011. | J. | In February 2011, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) granted orphan drug designation to the Company’s NurOwn™ autologous adult stem cell product for the treatment of ALS. | | K. | On February 19, 2013, Brainstorm Ltd established a wholly-owned subsidiary, Brainstorm Cell Therapeutics UK Ltd. (“Brainstorm UK”). Brainstorm UK will act on behalf of the parent Company in the EU. | | L. | On February 21, 2013, Brainstorm UK filed a request for Orphan Medicinal Product Designation by the European Medicine Agency (EMA) for its Autologous Bone Marrow derived Mesenchymal Stromal cells Secreting Neurotropic factors (MSC-NTF, NurOwn). | | M. | On April 8, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (“Dana-Farber”) to provide cGMP-compliant clean room facilities for production of the Company’s NurOwn™ stem cell candidate during its upcoming Phase II ALS trial in the United States. The Company’s Phase II trial, will be conducted at Massachusetts General Hospital (“MGH”), the University of Massachusetts (“UMass”) Hospital and the Mayo Clinic. The Connell and O'Reilly Cell Manipulation Core Facility at Dana-Farber will produce NurOwn for the MGH and UMass Hospital clinical sites. | | N. | On April 18, 2013, the stockholders of the Company authorized the Board of Directors of the Company, in its discretion, should it deem it to be appropriate and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, to amend the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock by a ratio of between 1-for-10 and 1-for-20, inclusive, without further approval or authorization of the Company’s stockholders. As of December 31, 2013 a reverse stock split of the Company’s shares wasn’t performed. | | O. | On July 17, 2013, the European Commission granted Orphan Drug Designation to the Company’s NurOwn autologous adult stem cell product for the treatment of ALS. | | P. | On September 27, 2013, the Company announced that it recently completed treatment of the 12 patients in its ALS Phase IIa dose-escalating clinical trial with the Company’s NurOwn™ technology. The Company was informed that one patient in the study expired due to a medical condition unrelated to the Clinical Trial. | The Clinical Trial is being performed at Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem, Israel, under the direction of Prof. Dimitrios Karussis, M.D., Ph.D., head of Hadassah's Multiple Sclerosis Center and a member of the International Steering Committees for Bone Marrow and Mesenchymal Stem Cells Transplantation in Multiple Sclerosis (MS). The study is designed to establish the safety and preliminary efficacy of NurOwn at increasing dosages. | Q. | In November 2013, the Company signed a definitive agreement with the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota to conduct its Phase II clinical trial of NurOwn™ in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), pending FDA approval. In addition, Mayo's Human Cell Therapy Laboratory will manufacture the NurOwn cells for their clinical trial participants. | | R. | On December 4, 2013, a Notice of Intention to Grant from the European Patent Office (EPO) was issued for the Company's patent application entitled "Isolated Cells and Populations Comprising Same for the Treatment of CNS Diseases" (European serial number EP06766101.7) . This patent relates to the production method for the company's proprietary stem cells induced to secrete large quantities of neurotrophic factors for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. | | | S. | On December 9, 2013, a Notice of Allowance was issued from the U.S. Patent Office for the same patent application as above, U.S. serial number 11/727,583. | | | T. | In March 2014, the Company signed a definitive agreement with the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) in Boston, MA to conduct a Phase II clinical trial of NurOwn™ in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), pending FDA approval. | GOING CONCERN: As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company’s operations for the year ended December 31, 2013, resulted in a net loss of $5,073. The Company’s balance sheet reflects an accumulated deficit of $52,581. These conditions, together with the fact that the Company is a development stage Company and has no revenues nor are revenues expected in the near future, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue to operate as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue operating as a “going concern” is dependent on several factors, among them is its ability to raise sufficient additional working capital. In 2009, the Company decided to focus only on the effort to commence clinical trials for ALS and such trials did commence in 2011. In July 2012, the Company raised $5.7 million, gross, in a public offering (See Note 8B 1 (i)). In August 2013, the Company raised $4 million, gross, in a public offering (See Note 8B 1 (j)). However, there can be no assurance that additional funds will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets, carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that may be required should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. |
