Try this link to a very good review of stem cell treatment for COPD.

OH I forgot they have a couple of other places that they do this you will see when you look them up.
Hi I am looking into the stem cell treatment for the lungs and found this one on Clinical Trials .gov. The trial is run by Dr Ross for Kimeralabs.com The number on clinicals is NCT 02216630 and it is a one day treatment done with lipo suction from fat from your stomach plus a nebilizer treatment. It is not Fda but it is I think they belong to the International review board you can look it up and read about it. They have a place inManhattan N.Y which is where I will go after my Pulmonuary Dr looks into it for me. If you don't want to do the lipo suction they have a nebilizer treatment they will send you after they get a chest Xray and blood work done.To me the paper work has to be read and your own doctor can do some of the follow up work. There phone number is (Phone number can only be seen by the question and answer creators).The are called COPD Research Institute in N.Y they are on E 64 ST. Just one place I found that,that sounds good to me because you have to do testing every month I think to see if and how much improvement you had. Hope this helps,if you go there please let me know.

To my knowledge, there has been no FDA approved stem cell treatment in the USA on humans. Many "stem cell" clinics advertise to have treatments for lung disease and have spoken to several women who have gone through some of these treatments and ended up very sick and one is now ineligible for lung transplant because of her participation. Do your homework. Discuss with your pulmonologist and hospitalist researchers.
I want to try it. I just have to get my Dr. To ok it
