NOW WE HAVE MORE PROOF THAT ADULT STEM CELL TREATMENTS ARE HELPING WITH CRITICAL LIMB ISCHEMIA (CLI) PATIENTS. HARVEST TECHNOLOGIES PRESENTED PRELIMINARY RESULTS OF A DOUBLE BLIND STUDY THEY PRESENTED IN BERLIN RECENTLY.
THESE ARE PATIENTS SUFFERING FROM PERIPHERAL VASCULAR DISEASE IE. THERE IS A LACK OF BLOOD FLOW IN THEIR LEGS DUE TO BLOCKAGES IN THE ARTERIES. ADULT STEM CELLS SEEM TO HAVE HELPED WITH THIS PROBLEM. LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THE
RESULTS OF THIS TRIAL USING ADULT STEM CELLS:
Dr. Ludermann presented results on the first 12 of 90 patients who completed the BONMOT-2 study protocolsix from the control group who received a placebo treatment, and six from the treatment group who received an injection of a concentrate of their own bone marrow (ADULT) stem cells. The stem cell concentrate was produced at the point of care (concentrated at the patients' bedside) using the Harvest Technologies BMACž¢ System. The treatment group showed a 100 percent improvement in perfusion (0.3 to 0.62) as measured by the ankle-brachial index (“ABI) compared to the control group, which exhibited only a non-significant change in ABI (0.4 to 0.5). Increased blood supply was also confirmed by an increase of oxygen pressure in the foot, which showed the treatment group having an 18-point increase compared to a seven-point increase in the control group. The treatment group also showed an improvement in a standardized quality-of-life assessment over the control group, and also a significant improvement of 30 meters in pain-free walking compared to an increase of 10 meters for the control group. THIS FURTHER SHOWS THAT ADULT STEM CELLS CAN CREATE NEW COLLATERAL BLOOD VESSELS EITHER IN THE HEART AREA OR IN THE LEGS. THE INCREASE IN BLOOD FLOW GIVES THESE PATIENTS A BETTER QUALITY OF LIFE. AGAIN, I ASK- WHY IS IT THAT A THERAPY THAT USES A PERSON'S OWN CELLS (MEANING VERY LITTLE RISK) NOT AVAILABLE TO PATIENTS WHO NEED THEM? THIS ISN'T A MEDICINE WITH POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS. HERE'S HOPING THAT HARVEST (AND OTHERS) KEEP PUSHING FOR APPROVAL SO PATIENTS IN DANGER OF AMPUTATION CAN HAVE THIS ADULT STEM CELL TREATMENT AVAILABLE TO THEM AS SOON AS POSSIBLE
