US Stem Cell Inc (USRM)

[Dragon Lady]

Again, my experience is it is rare for the "patient" to PAY A LARGE ($5000.00) fee to participate in "research". Usually, it's the other way around- you are actually paid compensation to participate in the trial (time, travel and even a daily fee for your time/effort).

Again, it's just my opinion- but charging $5K a pop for a "trial" sounds more like a money maker, than actual "research". They also toss around the word "treatment" a lot in that PR. Again, do date, there is only one, one FDA approved stem cell "treatment" in existence that I know of. Also, that "Repair Stem Cells Institute" is another one of these "things" that appears to be nothing more than a web site and a rented office suite. They state- they are basically an "advocacy" group to promote stem cell "whatever" and "wherever" - whatever that means? They make all sorts of claims that stem cells "treat" all these numerous conditions- nearly every serious illness in existence, but according to the FDA that is not the case at all? Just go to the pull-down tab on that web site and look at "conditions TREATED by stem cells" - it's like a wash list of every malady known to mankind and wreaks of a vitamin or snake oil like hype IMO. Just under the "A" tab is alzheimers, ataxis, autism, arthritis, ALS (Lou Gerhigs), anti-aging, etc, etc- I mean come on, you gotta be joking. There is ZERO proof that stem cells "treat" any of those conditions?

Just doesn't rub me the right way, and again- why do this now and where is it supposed to lead? To a phase I or II or what? What happened to Mirror? Who of the 5 or so employees is "working" on all this "stuff" from Honduras to ED to now diabetes to also being a CEO of Stemlogix and Ageless and all the rest? How can so few people, with so little money possibly be doing all this and where is it all supposed to lead or what is the end game?

Only my 2 cents again, but I just don't see it or get it. More like attempts to keep the stock mo-mo pumping going than anything else to me. But that's just me. A
