Receive Clinical Grade Stem Cells

Based on 20 Years
of Leading Research

Cellcolabs Clinical is conducting clinical trials in the Bahamas using Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs). Our MSCs are produced in Sweden and based on a manufacturing protocol developed at the world-renowned Karolinska Institute. 

Our Trials

We are currently conducting several clinical trials with MSCs. These include Prevention of cardiovascular disease, Musculoskeletal injuries and/or degeneration; and Ageing frailty.

Eligibility for the trials will be determined by the relevant Principal Investigator. More information on inclusion and exclusion criteria is available during the sign-up process.

About

Continuing the Research from
the Karolinska Institute

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a type of multipotent stem cell with anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory and regenerative characteristics. They have been intensively researched over the past decades, and currently, there are hundreds of clinical trials with MSCs for a broad spectrum of conditions (1).

The MSCs used in these trials are produced by Cellcolabs AB at their facility in Stockholm, Sweden. The production process has been optimised through 25 years of academic research, and the cells are quality controlled according to the guidelines of the International Society for Cell and Gene Therapy (2). The manufacturing is approved by the Swedish Medical Products Agency and certified under GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) standards. The clinical trials have received approval by local authorities.

Cellcolabs’ MSCs are derived from the bone marrow of healthy donors aged 18-30. These cells are likely more potent than cells derived from trial participants themselves (3-4). Using donated cells also means that trial participants do not need to endure cell extraction as part of the trial.

Treatment Location

Our clinical trials are conducted in the Bahamas, a country known for its high-quality healthcare and ambitious research in regenerative medicine.

The Bahamas

The Bahamas is a destination for both tourism and medicine, and the country is at the forefront of clinical stem cell applications. They allow patient-funded clinical trials, which is an opportunity to accelerate the research.

Our local partnering physicians have long experience of stem cell therapies. The clinical trials are approved by the Bahamas National Stem Cell Ethics Committee.
