This review of injectable peptide therapy found that while BPC-157 and other peptides show potential for tissue repair and regenerative medicine, there is a lack of evidence to support their clinical use, particularly in human trials. The review concludes that more research is needed to determine the safety and efficacy of these peptides.
Regeneration or Risk? A Narrative Review of BPC-157 for Musculoskeletal Healing.
BPC-157 demonstrates robust regenerative and cytoprotective effects in preclinical studies, but human data is extremely limited, with only three pilot studies conducted. The review concludes that BPC-157 should be considered investigational and its use approached with caution until well-designed clinical trials are conducted.
