Is stem cell therapy for Crohn's & IBD FDA-approved?
Do not describe Alofisel as currently EU-authorised: its EU marketing authorisation was withdrawn on 13 December 2024. Verify any exact product and indication with the relevant regulator; trial registration or hospital manufacture is not marketing authorisation.
How stem cells are studied for Crohn's & IBD
Crohn's disease and other inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) have different patterns, complications and established medical and surgical treatments. Cell research includes systemic immune approaches and local treatment of selected fistulas. Results from one local product and indication cannot validate intravenous MSCs for luminal disease, ulcerative colitis or general gut healing.
