HYDERABAD: A biotech startup company, incubated at the ASPIRE-Technology Business Incubator (ASPIRE-TBI), University of Hyderabad (UoH), on Monday announced a human umbilical cord (UC) tissue harvested and clinically processed adult Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) based therapy for Covid patients.
Transcell Oncologics has developed a proprietary cell-based platform technology, HEMATO UC-MSCs, with anti-cytokine storm properties, anti-inflammatory attributes and repairing abilities.
Significantly improved patient survival and time to recovery observed following the treatment, says Transcell Oncologics
A breakthrough human Umbilical Cord (UC) tissue harvested and clinically processed adult Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs)-based therapy to COVID patients has been announced by Transcell Oncologics,
a biotech start-up company, incubated at ASPIRE-Technology Business Incubator (ASPIRE-TBI), University of Hyderabad (UoH) on Monday.
The firm had developed proprietary cell-based platform technology ‘HEMATO UC-MSCs’ with anti-cytokine storm properties, anti-inflammatory attributes and repairing abilities. The research recommends HEMATO UC-MSCs to be administered as “two intravenous infusions, at a dose of 100 million cells per infusion, given 72 hours apart to the COVID patients.
Hyderabad-based Startup Develops Stem Cell Therapy for COVID by Angela Mohan on May 4, 2021 at 9:45 AM
Adult Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs)-based therapy may hold potential in treating COVID-19 positive patients.
Transcell Oncologics has developed a proprietary cell-based platform technology, HEMATO UC-MSCs, with anti-cytokine storm properties, anti-inflammatory attributes and repairing abilities.
The treatment is associated with a significant decrease in a set of inflammatory cytokines involved in the COVID-19 cytokine storm , with significantly improved patient survival and time to recovery.
The research recommends HEMATO UC-MSCs to be administered as two intravenous infusions, at a dose of 100 million cells per infusion, given 72 hours apart to the COVID patients .
New stem cell-based therapy by University of Hyderabad startup may speed up COVID recovery
The research conducted on HEMATO UC-MSCs recommends that it must be administered as two intravenous infusions, at a dose of 100 million cells per infusion, given 72 hours apart .

HYDERABAD: A biotech startup incubated at the University of Hyderabad (UoH) has developed a new stem cell-based therapy for the treatment of COVID-19 patients. The therapy been found to significantly reduce the cytokine storm with improved patient survival and time of recovery.
The new therapy is based on Umbilical Cord (UC) tissue-harvested and clinically processed adult Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs). The therapy, developed by Transcell Oncologics, has already been used as part of the treatment regimen by doctors treating Covid-19 patients in a few hospitals across Hyderabad, Warangal and Delhi.
