City man set to try stem cell therapy

WHEN a serious hip injury looked like slowing down Toowoomba's Geoff Castle, he knew he was facing a life-changing decision.

While cycling around Rottnest Island three years ago, he felt a severe strike of pain in the right side of his groin.

What he initially thought was a soft tissue injury turned out to be far worse.

"It was intense and sudden and I was sure it was just a soft tissue injury," he said.

"I thought I would stretch it out, take some anti-inflammatory drugs and sort it out myself."

However, after multiple consultations, x-rays, physiotherapy and medical treatments, Mr Castle had all but given into the fact that he would need a hip replacement any time in the next 10 years.

But he knew there had to be an alternative, something which would allow him to continue his active life.

Mr Castle began researching alternatives and while doing so, began reading peer-reviewed articles about autologous stem cell treatment.

Geoff Castle is to have stem cell treatment.

blood bank | The Development of Umbilical Cord Blood Stem Cell Therapy
http://www.cordbloodrecommendation.com Umbilical cord blood is stored immediately after delivery, when the cord is cut. Diseases that are genetically based would most likely be an allogenic transplant. Human umbilical cord blood cells are very rich in stem cells and progenitor cells which make them the perfect place to take cells from and then store them in a cord blood bank or a stem cells bank. Scientists have found that umbilical blood can actually help to treat many types of medical issues. To make a long story short, the Adult Stem Cells did the trick. This would be a significant event, which would save thousands of lives of those waiting for an organ. Why would someone opt for cord blood preservation? Well, research is continually being conducted and cells extracted from this blood has already been used to treat and cure injuries and diseases. Cord Blood Banking facilities are places where you can bank your child #39;s cord blood and use it later on in life to cure life-threatening diseases. The National Cord Blood Program staff at the New York Blood Center performs cord blood collection from the expelled placenta. Because of this amazing capacity of blood cells, they have been, still are and will continue to be used more and more to save lives and cure a number of diseases. ""Umbilical cord blood contains blood-forming cells that can be used to treat life-threatening diseases and conditions. Stem cells, researchers discovered, could cure many diseases such as leukemia and ...From:hotelesenMelgarViews:0 0ratingsTime:01:18More inScience Technology

Pluristem shares bounce back after Thursday plunge

Posted: November 10, 2012 at 7:44 pm

NEW YORK (AP) Shares of biotechnology company Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. bounced back Friday after the company responded to a report that a patient treated with its PLX stem cell therapy had died.

THE SPARK: Bloomberg BusinessWeek reported Thursday that Pluristem did not disclose the death of a young patient who had been treated with its placental cell therapy before a $32 million public stock sale in September. Shares of Pluristem fell 23 percent Thursday.

The Israeli company said Thursday evening that parts of the article were inaccurate or misleading. It said the patient, a Romanian girl whose name has not been disclosed, was "in imminent danger of death" at the time she was treated with the stem cells. She was not part of an organized clinical trial and was treated on a compassionate basis because no therapy options remained.

Pluristem said the patient lived for six months after her treatment. She returned to Romania four months before she died and the company was not monitoring her health. Pluristem said it was not aware of her death at the time it sold the additional stock. Bloomberg said the patient died Sept. 12, the day the stock sale was announced. The sale closed a week later.

"The formal report relating to the death clearly stated that there was no connection between the PLX cell treatment and the death of the patient," Pluristem said in a press release.

THE BIG PICTURE: Pluristem said that three patients have been treated with PLX on a compassionate basis including the Romanian girl and two have died. The company said it believes the patients lived longer than expected following treatment, which demonstrates that PLX therapy can be effective. The company is studying the stem cells as a treatment for peripheral artery disease, nerve pain, and other conditions.

THE STOCK: Shares of Pluristem rose 39 cents, or 13.7 percent, to $3.24 on Friday. The stock reached an annual high of $5 per share in August, and including Friday's gains, the shares are down 29 percent since the company announced the stock offering.

DOH to regulate stem cell therapy in PH

Posted: November 10, 2012 at 7:44 pm

Published on 10 November 2012 Hits: 103 Written by Jovee Marie N. Dela Cruz

The Department of Health (DOH) on Friday said that it has become necessary to issue regulations for stem cell therapy in the country. Health Secretary Enrique Ona said that guidelines for clinics offering stem cell therapy will be released immediately by the DOH and the Food and Drug Administration.

We will issue guidelines because here in the country we dont know where the stem cell offered by clinics come from, he said.

According to the DOH, stem cell therapy belongs to the category of advanced cell therapy, which includes biologics and blood. Many countries apply a risk-based approach to assess the quality, efficacy and safety of advanced cell therapy.

In many countries, stem cell is considered an investigational intervention, Ona said.

The DOH said that stem cell research employs both autologous (from same person) or allogenic (from another organism like an animal or another human cell or tissue sample) method.

Ona said that because there are many steps in the preparation of this lab and invasive procedure, there is a need to have a regulatory framework to protect Filipino citizens.

DOH warns against use of stem cells from aborted babies

Posted: November 10, 2012 at 7:44 pm

By Philip C. Tubeza Philippine Daily Inquirer

The Department of Health (DOH) on Saturday warned those contemplating stem cell therapy against using stem cells from aborted babies and human embryos.

The DOH issued the statement as it reviewed the legal and technical specifications of stem cell therapy to come up with a regulatory framework.

The Philippine government will not allow the use of aborted fetuses or human embryos (as sources of stem cells). There is a need to ensure that the biological raw materials are documented and validated and follow infection-free procedures, the health department said.

There is also a need to know if the materials to be injected came from animal or human tissues, it added.

The DOH said the other fundamental areas of the regulatory framework would include the monitoring of the marketing claims by medical centers that offer stem cell therapy so that the claims stick within the boundaries of science as objectively as possible.

Credentials and procedures

The credentials of the scientists involved should also match the training, education and skills required for these procedures while good laboratory procedures should be observed in the preparation of the tissue and cells, the DOH said.

The centers to be regulated or accredited will have to show both positive and negative outcomes for a better handle of the predictors of success or failure from this intervention, it said.

The health department said there was a need for a regulatory framework because there were many steps in the preparation of stem cell therapies and the government had been receiving many queries about it.
