Making safe and effective treatments available for patients
Regenerative cellular therapies represent the next generation of groundbreaking treatments that are showing great promise in cardiology, neurology, oncology, orthopedics, ophthalmology, and other areas. Several well-designed clinical trials are being conducted under FDA investigational new drug (IND) protocols. At the same time, a handful of clinics have caused patient harm or made questionable claims, taking advantage of vulnerable patients and casting a negative light on this emerging science and industry.
