The responses to the benefits of this platform and its ease of use has been positive. Training of other physicians is ongoing.
Implementing the Patient Gain platform at this time is of great value as increased proficiency in data management is expected to result in reaching a much larger potential patient market with an ongoing reduction in patient acquisition costs and appointment scheduling and patient follow up directly with each physician's office, which also is expected to increase efficiency and reduce administrative costs.

Creative Medical Technology Holdings, Inc. March 28, 2019 Shareholder Update
PR Newswire
PHOENIX, March 28, 2019
PHOENIX, March 28, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- (OTCQB-CELZ) Creative Medical Technology Holdings, Inc. announced today an update of its activities:
CaverStem™ domestic activities: As previously reported, we are continuing marketing to physicians across the United States. Since our last shareholder update several physicians have joined CaverStem™ and are in the process of training and patient acquisition.
We have added physicians in Hawaii, California, Ohio, Texas and Tennessee. We will continually add the new physicians to the CaverStem™ website, begin the patient awareness campaign in each area and schedule physician training.
These physicians came to us through our physician marketing program as previously disclosed. We are continuing to use this marketing tool with mailers and emails with follow up personal or telephone communication with physicians across the country.
We are always working to get physicians trained as soon as possible. In order to properly train each physician, we require a minimum of 5 patients. This requires scheduling all patients, the physician and our trainer. This process has caused delays, therefore we have added additional medical personnel to travel to each physicians office to train. With this increased flexibility on our part we anticipate a reduction in such delays.
As previously disclosed, our patient marketing campaign has relied heavily on social media with the use of Google Ad Words and banner advertising. We believe social media is a great resource as 80% of patients find us, using their phones and tablets. In order to continue to grow patient awareness print advertising is now being used and we are continuing to develop our television commercial which will be edited to direct patients to each physician in their area.
CaverStem™ International: We have successfully treated our first six patients in Italy and other patients are scheduled. Due to the increased international demand and to compliment our existing relationship with Scott Shea, CEO of Aspire Medical in Munich, Germany with whom we enjoy a phenomenal relationship, Thomas Bianchi has joined the company as our international sales representative. Mr. Bianchi has decades long experience in medical device sales, having worked for companies such as Stryker and Medtronics. With Scott and Thomas on the CaverStem™ team we expect to continue to grow our international physician base not only in recruiting new physicians but in more effectively servicing existing physicians.
Progress in Russia has been much slower than expected. Government exemptions are required for the ongoing import of our device. This is a slow and tedious process in getting approval, therefore our progress has been delayed. We will continue with this process and maintain great faith in our relationship with Promo Med and our expansion in to this sizable market.
CaverStem™ clinical trial: As we've previously advised, we are working on our paper for publication. This is ongoing and in compliance with our contractual obligations. Once our paper has been approved by The Journal of Translational Medicine and a publication date advised we will advise.
Additionally, we have designed an electronic patient registry that is intended to include data from our clinical trial, data from treating physicians using centrifuge technology with a 30cc to 60cc bone marrow aspiration and our second generation, needle only, mini bone marrow aspiration technology drawing a maximum of 20cc of bone marrow. Recent publications have disclosed that with the second generation needle technology a larger amount of pure cell product is harvested because of a reduction in dilution of blood, thus requiring a reduced bone marrow aspiration. The registry will enable the company to gather and maintain ongoing HIPAA compliant information on patient demographics, history and treatment progress. Patient names and addresses will not be included on the registry or disclosed to the company.
We have received positive feedback from treating physicians of a 70% to 90% efficacy in their patients. Obviously results differ depending on the age and health of the patient and cause and severity of their erectile dysfunction.
FemCelz™: As previously announced, we are progressing with the development of the FemCelz™ procedure for the treatment of female sexual dysfunction.
Our progress in Q1 has included;
- Development of the protocol.
Distribution of protocol to numerous physicians.
Scheduling of the first patients for treatment.
Ongoing design of the FemCelz website, to be launched in early April.
Design of social media campaign towards female patients.
Marketing to physicians in this space.

PHOENIX, April 30, 2019
PRNewswire/ -- (OTCQB-CELZ) Creative Medical Technology Holdings, Inc. announced today an update of its activities:
As we are releasing updates on a regular basis, we will only cover new activities. The absence of reporting on a specific area of our business should not be construed as a lack of concentration in that area but due to the short window of time between shareholder updates. We appreciate our shareholders' desire for "real time" information but some aspects of our business take time.
CaverStem™ domestic activities: We are continuing marketing to physicians across the United States. Since our last shareholder update an additional five physicians have expressed interest in joining CaverStem™. We are currently vetting those physicians and will submit contracts for their review and signature. Once contracts are in place, we will schedule training and begin marketing for patient awareness.
These physicians came to us through our physician marketing program. We are continuing to use this marketing tool with mailers and emails with follow up telephone communication with physicians across the country.
As previously disclosed, we have and will continue to use social media to build patient awareness with the use of Google Ad Words and banner advertising. We believe social media is a great resource as 80% of patients find us, using their phones and tablets. In order to continue to grow patient awareness print advertising is now being used and we are continuing to develop our television commercial which will be edited to direct patients to each physician in their area.
Dr. Narayan and his staff at North Florida Urology were trained on April 24th with five patients successfully treated. Training for Dr. Liu in San Francisco is scheduled on May 2nd and Dr. Sanderson in Honolulu will be trained in May. Other physicians are scheduled the first of June.
Patient testimonials discussing the procedure and the positive results are being filmed and will be posted on our caverstem.com website and our social media pages.
CaverStem™ International activities: We are continuing to treat patients in Italy and the first patients treated within the past 2 months have expressed positive results. This will be covered in a separate press release by Dr. Antonini and the company.
Additionally, our electronic patient registry is complete and is being forwarded to physicians. This registry is intended to include data from our clinical trial, data from treating physicians using centrifuge technology with a 30cc to 60cc bone marrow aspiration and our second generation, needle only, mini bone marrow aspiration technology drawing a maximum of 20cc of bone marrow. Recent publications have disclosed that with the second generation needle technology a larger amount of pure cell product is harvested because of a reduction in dilution of blood, thus requiring a reduced bone marrow aspiration. The registry will enable the company to gather and maintain ongoing HIPAA compliant information on patient demographics, history and treatment progress. Patient names and addresses will not be included on the registry or disclosed to the company.
We have received positive feedback from treating physicians in the United States and Europe of a 70% to 100% efficacy in their patients. This percentage may fluctuate depending on the age and health of the patients and cause and severity of their erectile dysfunction.
FemCelz™: as previously announced, we are progressing with the development of the FemCelz™ procedure for the treatment of female sexual dysfunction. The first patients are scheduled for May 2nd in San Francisco. Additional patients are being scheduled in other cities.
We continue to move forward on all aspects of our business. The dedication of our team towards building the fundamentals of the company and shareholder value remain as strong as ever and the addition of medical industry veterans allows us to grow the company on a domestic and international level at a faster pace than at any time since inception of the company.
We would also like to thank our shareholders for their support, including the many shareholders from the medical field who have expressed positive feedback on our progress.

About Erectile Dysfunction
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is characterized by the lack of ability to achieve and maintain penile erection for intercourse. Methods used to quantify ED include the Erectile Function Visual Analog Scale (EF-VAS) and the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5), however clinically it is primarily diagnosed based on symptomology. In our aging society, ED is becoming an increasing problem. According to one study 39% of men at age 40 experience symptoms of ED, whereas by age 70 the incidence rises to 67%. In this latter age group, it is believed that 50-85% of ED cases are associated with hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular disease and dyslipidemia. Overall, it is estimated that 10-30 million Americans suffer from this condition.
