American CryoStem Completes Clinical Protocol Design for Long COVID Study

EATONTOWN, NJ / ACCESSWIRE / November 30, 2021 / American CryoStem Corporation (OTC PINK:CRYO), a leading clinical-stage biotechnology developer of adipose-derived stem cell therapies today announced completion of its Phase I clinical protocol design for the treatment of Long COVID. American CryoStem anticipates that the protocol will be filed as an FDA Phase I IND in cooperation with a major US medical center in Q-1, 2022.

Medical complications of Long Covid patients include reports of the development of new or recurrent symptoms that affect several distinct physiologic systems including but not limited to neurological, respiratory, gastrointestinal, cardiac, endocrine, dermatological, hepatic, and renal that persist for many months following resolution of the acute infection and associated illness.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, "post-COVID conditions can be considered a lack of return to a usual state of health following acute COVID-19 illness." In the US, following COVID recovery, it is reported that up to 30% of those afflicted, diagnosed, or treated for COVID-19 have continuing symptoms and medical complications following recovery from the acute illness. A recently published study of patients diagnosed with COVID-19 suggest that the global incidence of Long Covid complications may be much higher. See: Incidence, co-occurrence, and evolution of long-COVID features: A 6-month retrospective cohort study of 273,618 survivors of COVID-19

The Company continues to collaborate with its scientific and clinical teams to file the Investigational New Drug (IND) application with its institutional partner to facilitate the timely initiation of its Phase I clinical testing. American CryoStem is focused on developing effective stem cell therapies to treat and ameliorate Long COVID. The upcoming Phase I clinical trial will assess CryoStem's proprietary ATCell® therapy for safety and tolerability in the setting of Long COVID with the goal of rapidly developing a safe and effective therapy for Long COVID, where none currently exists.
