Great success has been achieved with dendritic cells (DC) and antigen presentation -based immunotherapeutics for cancer therapy.  The rise of this novel cellular therapy has been validated and legitimated with recent FDA approval of Provenge for prostate cancer.  Interestingly, Adult Mesenchymal Stem Cells  are also capable of antigen presentation in addition to other cells found within SVF.  A novel and patent pending method of rapid point-of-care autologous and personalized immunotherapy using the subjects' own SVF and tumor antigen is presented for the first time and exclusively at the Clinical Translation of Stem Cells Summit.  Attendees will be offered a first glimpse at a profoundly new field, which patients and the adult stem cell and autologous community will greatly benefit from.

Telephone:  760-564-7874

Procedures will be Demonstrated by the Following Surgeons:

Session Moderated by: Albert Lai, MD

Joe Purita, MD will be performing the injection of simple fat into the joint under Carm guidance.  The procedures demonstrated are performed by board-certified surgeons in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

This will be an amazing opportunity for the conference delegates to watch and experience the clinical translation of stem cells in real-time and is open to all registered delegates and speakers of this conference.

Dr. Joseph Purita is a doubly board certified in Orthopedic Surgery and Pain Management and has been featured in Sports Illustrated for his contributions and ground breaking work in regenerative orthopedic techniques in rehabilitating some of the most difficult professional sport injuries.  He has been one of the first practitioners to clinically utilize both stem cells, cytokines and other unique regenerative factors to promulgate novel “leading-edge” orthopedic therapies.
