Organicell Regenerative Medicine, Inc. announced that Mayo Clinic will be the site for clinical trials on Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Mayo Clinic in Phoenix, Arizona will be the clinical trial site for Organicell's Phase I/II Randomized, Double Blinded, Placebo Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Potential Efficacy of Intravenous Infusion of Zofin for the Treatment of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Organicell completed the site activation and is ready to begin enrollments.

Organicell aims to demonstrate the safety of Organicell's lead extracellular vesicle biologic, Zofin, while concurrently investigating the drug's potential long-term benefits for improved pulmonary function and quality of life measures in chronically ill COPD patients. Extracellular vesicle and exosome-based drugs, like Zofin, are becoming increasingly popular due to the number of anti-inflammatory and immune-modulatory effects. In chronic illnesses where inflammation is high, such as COPD, extracellular vesicles and exosomes offer an innovative solution for patients with unmet medical needs.
