Celltex and Baylor College - Anti-aging stem cell trial announcement

Celltex Clinical Trial Announcement 12.6.2013

Celltex is in discussions with Dr. Mohit Khera, MD, Assistant Professor at the Scott Department of Urology at the Baylor College of Medicine, regarding his clinical trial that focuses on stem cells and testosterone. He is currently working with the Food and Drug Administration to obtain approval for this study. In this study, he will give men testosterone and their own stem cells for over one year and then assess changes in the aging process, such as muscle mass, bone formation, cognition, sexual function, and nerve regeneration and growth. Dr. Khera has already raised over half of the $1.5 million needed to initiate the project.

I am confused as to why it states, "Celltex Clinical Trial Announcement" and then says it's Dr. Khera's clinical trial. Perhaps, he is going to bank the stem cells with Celltex?

Please give us an update if you get any more information SammyJo.

 

[SammyJo]

It always has to be a physician (Dr. Khera) leading the trial and treating patients. Celltex, or any bank, is a service provider to the physician. Same model as a drug trial.

Yes, I realize that, but is he using them to bank or are they merely in discussion mode at present?

Hopefully, this leads to other such trials. Please keep us informed SammyJo.
