The 12 months follow-up results of the original study have demonstrated that 12 out of the 17 patients experienced successful limb salvage.

After 40 months, positive clinical outcome was noted with an overall reduction in rest pain and an improved quality of life.

Cesca Therapeutics subsidiary Totipotent study director and executive director Dr Venkatesh Ponemone said: "These longer-term, post-study follow-up results not only reinforce our belief that autologous bone marrow derived stem cell therapy using our SurgWerks-CLI system is effective, they also suggest that it is durable.”

Ponemone has added that the company is planning to initiate the Phase III pivotal clinical trial of SurgWerks-CLI procedure.
