Stem Cell Treatment in the US

[Farooqji]

I had contacted International patient coordinator of UC San Diego Health (health.ucsd.edu) requesting to include me in their stem cell trial. He replied that they are not accepting international patients for this trial, however he recommended following clinic for me:

The Center for Regenerative Medicine

1001 North East 125 street

Miami, Florida 33161

(arthritisusa.net/?gclid=COX...

I contacted them and they confirmed that they are providing stem cell treatment for PD at a cost of 10,000 USD

My question is: Does anybody know about this clinic and its authenticity ?

[MBAnderson]

I'm having trouble finding this trial. Post link?

[Farooqji in reply to MBAnderson]

I had come to know through someome about the trial. Then I sent an email to them asking them to include me in the trial. In reply they sent me some forms and documents which I filled and sent them back. After that I received following email from them

Good evening Iqbal,

Stem Therapy for Parkinson dieses is only available for clinical trials patients. Unfortunately at this time this clinical trial does not accept international patients.

Thanks

BTW they also had given reference to the following link

health.ucsd.edu/specialties...

I don't know about this one in particular but my experience with a similar sounding Clinic was abysmal my advice--be very wary and do not give them a lot of money. Best , Stuart Epstein

This seems odd because when I search for this trial on the UC San Diego Health website (the link), there are no stem cell trials listed.

[Juliegrace in reply to Rebtar]

Same.

[maryalice]

No, but I would like more information.

[rhenry45]

it is a total scam. stem cells are not yet available in a form that works. they are total scammers.

[Farooqji]

I can forward full email correspondence with US San Diego Health if it is required by someone

[hanifag in reply to Farooqji]

thank you

[maryalice]

Hi Iqbal, I’d ask them for peer reviewed publications on their treatments; the safety monitoring program; their entries on clinicaltrials.gov; and proof of mechanism of action. Then I wouldn’t hold my breath.

To the best of my knowledge, there are no legitimate stem cell therapies or clinical trials underway in the USA. (Emphasis on "LEGITIMATE "). However, Dr. Jeanne Loring of Scripps Research in California is getting very close. Google "Dr. Jeanne Loring Parkinson's disease stem cell research" for more information. There are legitimate trials now underway in Japan and Australia.
