Kidney Stem Cells Cost?

Posted by benjamin8161 @benjamin8161, Jan 2, 2020

Dear Members,

I am here as I am looking for how much it would cost to get a stem cell transplant of kidney cells. (if not legal in the United States, then Panama would be an option for me) Let me know if anyone has any experience getting just a kidney stem cell transplant and what they paid.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Kidney & Bladder Support Group.

@benjamin8161 There are currently no FDA-approved treatments for kidney disease that use stem cells, but researchers are conducting clinical trials to test whether stem cell-based therapies for kidney diseases are safe and effective in humans. Here's a listing of potential clinical trials https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/results?cond=Kidney+Diseases&term=stem+cell&cntry=&state=&city=&dist=&recrs=a

Do you have chronic kidney disease?
