SUNRISE, FL / ACCESSWIRE / June 8, 2021 / U.S. Stem Cell, Inc. (OTC:USRM), a corporation that has historically focused on the regenerative medicine / cellular therapy industry specializing in physician training and certification and stem cell products in both human and veterinary stem cell processes, has received the results of the Appeal from the United States 11th District Court for the Southern District of Florida.
Since May 9th, 2018, U.S. Stem Cell, as one of the parties named on a legal action by the FDA, has been challenged by an injunctive action filed by the U.S. Department of Justice, at the request of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The suit alleged, among other matters, that the defendants manufactured 'stromal vascular fraction' (SVF) products from patient adipose (fat) tissue without first obtaining what the government alleged are necessary FDA approvals for a new drug. The Company had always maintained that stem cell treatments are medical procedures regulated by the respective State medical boards-and a patients' own stem cells are not drugs to be regulated by the federal government.
Notwithstanding:
'The ongoing case has been a long, expensive and arduous fight and although the results of the appeal are disappointing, the Company will, of course, continue to abide by the court's decision' states Mike Tomas, President & CEO. Adding 'Nonetheless, we will both examine future legal options on this court case while looking forward to exploring other avenues of growth for the Company.'
The company will continue to monitor the ongoing trial in California, 5:18-cv-01005 where a federal judge ruled that a stem cell company involved in a similar stem cell procedure was entitled to a trial and has yet to rule on whether the stem cell procedures may be regulated by the FDA as a ‘drug.'
As a result of this court case result and taking advantage of the different capabilities housed within U.S. Stem Cell, the Company will take steps to rebrand, restructure, and relaunch the Company to refocus on its other divisions.
U.S. Stem Cell, Inc. is a corporation that has historically focused on the regenerative medicine / cellular therapy industry specializing in physician training and certification and stem cell products in both human and veterinary stem cell processes. To management's knowledge, USRM has completed more clinical treatments than any other stem cell company in the world in the past 20 years, and has certified more than 700 physicians and veterinarians in autologous stem cell therapy worldwide. The company will refocus on its animal health division while it evaluates its future opportunities for its human division and subsidiary.
