In this podcast, we discuss a new potential treatment for Parkinson's Disease has been developed by Bluerock Therapeutics that has completed and released results for the Phase 1 clinical trials. Involved in this research we have Dr. Claire Henchcliffe, MD, DPhil -Chair of Neurology at UC Irvine School of Medicine.

High praise for Dr. Claire Henchcliffe for their patient in Parkinson’s. I do want inform her that this might be the first time in the USA, but she should reach out to stem cell clinics in Ukraine. I know one that has been treating Parkinson’s for years in patients with stem cells, and they do R&D and clinical trials for years before applying it to their patients. Also, instead of drilling into their head they have been doing intrathecal injections.

Could you tell me what the name of this blessed clinic is? I'm willing to leave Brazil to try.

S.Biomedics in Korea is doing the similar approach for PD cure with ESCs. Their phase 1 trial results will be reported in late May or June.

I am 7 plus years into my battle with Parkinson’s. 25 sinimet per day. Brutal. My dbs surgery was cancelled a few months ago because I was in pre op for 16hrs.

So has someone found difinitively what causes it? Everything i read says resolving health issues is always dependent on finding the cause first!

TCE, pesticides, chemicals, ...

This was also the first thought that crossed my mind. Unless the cause has been determined and eliminated, wouldn’t the newly transplanted cells/neurons eventually die off as well?

Who ever the person is who got the transplant is like winning the lottery. Even though it is not a cure but will treat the movement symptoms.

Slowed up by the rigid clinacal trials rules. Yet many Drs says the trials rules need to change for Parkinsons research. Many trials don't get off the ground because of the trials rules are too rigid.

Any idea yet whether or not a person who has had focused ultrasound for tremors can be treated with this stem cell procedure? How about a person who has had DBS?

@greyeyed123 5 ай бұрын

My mom has DBS, and we were told it is very easy to remove if there are new treatments in the future. I have no idea how that would work with a stem cell procedure.

@michaeloconnor9465 5 ай бұрын

I watched a different podcast where they are doing a similar clinical trial and they said the target site is different to DBS and the DBS won't need removing for the stem cell treatment.

It is being aimed at people at 10 years since diagnosis. 50 to 70 years old. Mu diagnoses was slowed by covid by at least 2 years. I would act out my dreams sometimes but since having my sleep apnea treated with a CPAP machine I dont act out my dreams anymore and I wonder if the sleep apnea contributed to my parkinsons because I believe went undiagnosed for over a decade.

@@tootalljones77 I understand now. Untreated sleep apnea increases the risk of Parkinson's that is what made me wonder. I would have been treated earlier for the sleep apnea if I was sent 5 years or more earlier to a sleep clinic for a full sleep study instead to my local hospital where I wore a devise with wire that went up my nose and down my throat. The wire had sensors on it. A very crude way to diagnose sleep apnea and they said I didn't have sleep apnea when I did. It was until I had a sleep study that I was diagnosed severe sleep apnea. I do think it played a role in me developing Parkinson's with the lack of oxygen. I started falling asleep on my pc in the morning about 10 years before my diagnoses. I have lost 3 stone in weight and my sleep apnea has improved to wear I hardly snore anymore. Still use the CPAP machine every night though.
