Celularity (NASDAQ: CELU) commented on CMS’s December 24, 2025 withdrawal of skin substitute Local Coverage Determinations (LCDs) that had been due to take effect January 1, 2026.

Celularity (Nasdaq: CELU) has formed a strategic partnership with Fountain Life to provide stem cell therapy products in Florida, leveraging a new state law effective July 1, 2025. The legislation allows qualified physicians to administer stem cell treatments for orthopedic conditions, wound healing, and pain management without FDA IND approval.
Fountain Life operates four longevity centers, including two in Florida (Naples and Lake Nona-Orlando), with Miami opening soon. Celularity will supply clinical-grade, placental-derived stem cells from its FDA-registered facility in New Jersey, offering immediate availability for physician-directed use under the new regulatory framework.
Celularity (Nasdaq: CELU), a regenerative and cellular medicine company, welcomes a new Florida law effective July 1, 2025, that authorizes physicians to provide investigational stem cell therapies for orthopedics, wound care, and pain management. The legislation permits the use of non-FDA approved stem cell treatments under strict safety and ethical guidelines.
The law requires stem cells to be sourced from FDA-registered and certified/accredited facilities that comply with Good Manufacturing Practices. Physicians must obtain patient informed consent before administering treatments. Celularity, operating an FDA-registered facility with extensive stem cell inventory, is positioned to supply ethically sourced placenta-derived stem cells for these authorized therapies.
The company, through its predecessor Anthrogenesis Corporation, pioneered the discovery of placental stem cell recovery methods in 2001, which was acknowledged by President George W. Bush. The Florida Medical Association was actively involved in crafting the legislation to balance public protection and physician regulation.
