What strict regulation in jurisdictions like the United States drives the search for stem cell therapy abroad?
Regulations surrounding unapproved cell therapies.
The global search for specialized stem cell therapies for conditions like Autism Spectrum Disorder is significantly influenced by the stringent regulatory climate in certain highly developed nations, such as the United States. In these jurisdictions, regulations governing the application and administration of cell therapies that have not yet received full standard approval are notably strict. This restrictive environment effectively limits patient access to novel or experimental treatments within their home country, thus compelling families to look toward international destinations where regulatory environments might be more permissive regarding the experimental application of these cell therapies, facilitating access to protocols not yet widely adopted domestically.
