Another example of the potential of mab's, we could see the benefits of manufactured antibodies long before any genuine stem cell treatments are available

Let's hope the human trials are a success, that Nice agree to fund it and it gets rolled out to us 'Tout de suite'.

Thanks for link Vonnie50, it sounds like some miracle cure so roll on research to see if it does really work in Humans. Hope for the furture or for younger COPD sufferers.

Yes I came across this recently and it certainly looks hopeful but fear it will not be rolled out in time for me but hopefully may save millions of others - here's hoping xx

Hi Vonnie. Wow isn't that great? Have been studying stem cell research but if this can be safely tested on patients with COPD it may offer a ray of hope to slow down the progression of this horrible disease and the impact it has on peoples lives. Fingers crossed!
