Summary:
The University Hospital of Navarra is planning to conduct clinical trials for urinary incontinence using the intraurethral injection of myoblasts (adult stem cells obtained by means of a biopsy of the patient). The trials will be undertaken with 15 women with urinary incontinence. The project is to recruit the sufferers over a six-month period and to carry out the project jointly between the Cellular Therapy Area and the Department of Urology at the University Hospital of Navarra.
Commentary: Maybe these trials will yield successful results and eventually lead to effective stem cell treatments for urinary incontince.
