Stem Cell Stocks Gaining Popularity in 2012 as a Result of Breakthroughs in Research

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - Nov 8, 2012) - Stem cell stocks have been gaining popularity among investors in 2012 as new and promising research continues to propel the industry forward. A study performed earlier this year at Johns Hopkins University has shown that stem cells from patients' own cardiac tissue can be used to heal scarred tissue after a heart attack. Five Star Equities examines the outlook for companies in the Biotechnology Industry and provides equity research on Cytori Therapeutics Inc. (USA) ( NASDAQ : CYTX ) and Pluristem Therapeutics Inc. ( NASDAQ : PSTI ).

A more recent study, also conducted at Johns Hopkins University, has showed that stem cells donated by strangers were as safe and as effective as the patient's own cells in repairing heart tissue. This is a key advancement for the treatment of heart attack with stem cells, as this possibly means stem cells could be stored for use just as blood is now.

"You could have the cells ready to go in the blood bank so when the patient comes in for a therapy -- there's no delay," said Dr. Joshua Hare of the University of Miami. "It's also cheaper to make the donor cells," as marrow from a single donor could provide enough cells for the treatment of up to 10 people.

Cardiac Cell Therapy Phase III Trial to Treat Refractory Angina

RIO DE JANEIRO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

CryopraxisTM/CellPraxis aims to start patient recruitment for its Phase III Refractory Angina Cell Therapy Brazilian arm clinical trial by the end of 2012 or early 2013. The phase IIA/B clinical trial study was completed in December 2011. These trials involved the use of a proprietary autologous stem cell formulation (MonocellTM) indicated for neoangiogeneses.

Safety and efficacy of this product was evaluated in patients with refractory angina, a no option disease condition, characterized by severe chest pain for which there is no efficient treatment available, says the President of both Companies, Eduardo Cruz.

ReACT, MonocellTMs derived product, showed evidence of safety and efficacy in our initial clinical trials. All patients included in this trial were classified as Class IV Angina in CCSAC* (the most severe class of chest pain). In the first group of patients, whose data was published**, there was a progressive and sustained improvement in angina symptoms, with 87.5% of the patients completing the clinical trial with a CCSAC score of 0 or 1.

Angina symptom relief began as early as 3 months post procedure with continuing improvement through the 18th month, suggesting that angiogenesis began early, and that it kept evolving 18 months after the procedure. Objective evaluation of stress myocardium perfusion (scintigraphic analysis), after 1 year of follow-up, gave indications of complete myocardial reperfusion in 75% of the patients, says Dr. Nelson Hossne, Medical Director of CellPraxis. Our conclusion was ReACT's specific cell formulation, MonoCell, had a direct correlation to myocardial neoangiogeneses.
