Clinical Results

The results of the clinical trial are based on the study of gait analysis on a force platform as the primary variable. This test allows us to objectively evaluate the progression of lameness by comparing the weight the animal bears on each limb and thus assigning a numerical value to the degree of lameness.

The use of tools that allow transforming a typically subjective measure such as pain and lameness into a quantitative variable by force platform gives a robustness to the results that is uncommon until now.

DogStem is not just looking for a partial improvement, but a substantial improvement in quality of life and a reduction in pain.

Reduction of lameness

Preliminary results show that 63% of dogs treated with DogStem improved their gait analysis on the force platform, demonstrating a lower degree of lameness and joint pain, whereas less than 10% of dogs treated with placebo improved their gait analysis.

Orthopedic examination

In addition to the objective force platform assessment, specialist traumatologists from our collaborating hospitals perform an orthopedic evaluation at different times after the infiltration.

In the orthopedic examination performed, 77% of patients treated with stem cells showed improvement in the infiltrated joint, compared to a placebo effect of 46%.

Improved quality of life

According to the owners' opinion, 65% of the dogs treated with DogStem substantially improved their quality of life after treatment, while only 19% of the dogs treated with placebo saw improvement.

The improvement in quality of life was assessed by owners in everyday activities of our pets such as walking, playing with other dogs, getting on the sofa, climbing stairs, etc.
