Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a lifelong condition characterized by an abnormal response of the body’s immune system, impacting the central nervous system, which includes the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves. This condition can manifest in various ways, leading to symptoms such as:
- Vision problems
- Moving limbs difficulty
- Sensation deficit
- Balance issues
While the exact cause of MS remains unknown, scientists believe it arises from a combination of factors, including genetics and environmental influences.
Challenges with Traditional Treatment
Currently, there is no cure for MS. Conventional treatment approaches primarily focus on managing MS symptoms rather than addressing the root causes. Additionally, many prescribed medications for symptom management can have adverse side effects and often fail to slow down disease progression. The financial burden associated with these drugs, such as the costly Ocrevus (ocrelizumab) regimen, can further complicate the situation, with annual expenses reaching upwards of $65,000 USD.
Exploring Stem Cell Therapy for MS
Stem cell therapy has shown great potential in the management of multiple sclerosis, which is a disease that is both neurodegenerative and autoimmune (i.e., the body’s immune system turning against itself). Because stem cell therapy can be both immunomodulatory (able to regulate the immune system) and regenerative, it represents an attractive alternative therapy for MS and other conditions characterized by both inflammation and tissue deterioration. Studies have also shown that therapy with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) may be able to slow down the progression of MS in patients.
Protocol
Intrathecal stem cell transplantation directly into the spinal canal. Notably, this treatment is minimally invasive, with a duration of approximately 45 minutes and minimal downtime. Patients typically return home just two days following their scheduled appointment.
Treatment Goals
Our protocol aims to reduce overall chronic low-grade inflammation within the body, with the effects expected to be long-lasting. Stem cells possess a unique ability to migrate to sites of damage and inflammation, orchestrating the repair and regeneration of deteriorated tissues while modulating the immune system for improved health.
Depending on the patient’s initial condition, the benefits of stem cell therapy may include a reduction in debilitating symptoms, a deceleration in disease progression, and an overall enhancement in the quality of life.
