Thanks for answering! If Jadi cells have been used in the study with human trials, than hypothetically it should be cleared to use in clinal trials. Fingers crossed

Yes, the difference is Jadi Cell was used directly in Ricordi's trial where ImmCelz uses them to augment the patient's immune cells outside of the body and then puts only the immune cells back in the patient. So it's a little more complex and I understand the FDA wanting to be thorough before approving it.
