Clinic and primary document
We The People Health and Wellness Center • 959 E Venice Ave, Venice, FL 34285
The clinic’s web page, titled “Join the Breakthrough Study on Autism and PRP Therapy!”, invites parents of children with autism spectrum disorder to apply for a study using “your child’s own blood.” The page was viewed on 19 October 2026. [1] KFF Health News reported separately in October 2025 that the clinic treats children for autism with an experimental blood concentrate. [5]
| Claim / question | What the clinic says | Evidence status |
|---|---|---|
| Children with autism | Parents of children with ASD are invited to apply if their child “meets the criteria.” No criteria, ages or costs are listed. [1] | Recruitment advertising verified 19 Oct 2026. Actual enrolment or treatment not verified on this page; KFF reports treatment is offered. [5] |
| Brain regeneration | “By promoting neurological regeneration and enhancing brain function, this cutting-edge therapy could pave the way…” [1] | No published controlled evidence that PRP regenerates the brain in autistic children. Even better-studied cell therapies have only weak, preliminary results in autism. [4] |
| Communication and social interaction | Suggests “measurable improvements in communication, social interaction, and overall quality of life.” [1] | Clinical benefit not demonstrated. The only registered PRP-in-autism trial found (NCT06600529, Pakistan) combines PRP with exosomes and laser acupuncture and has published no results. [6] |
| Personalized PRP | “A natural therapy using your child’s own blood.” [1] | Preparation, dose and route are not stated on the study page. The same website separately advertises IV PRP therapy. [1] |
| Safety and oversight | “PRP offers a safe, innovative way to target cognitive and behavioral challenges.” [1] | Safety is stated as fact; benefit only as possible. No pediatric safety data, protocol, principal investigator, IRB approval or trial registration is given, and the page carries no risk statement or disclaimer. A promoters’ webinar says the study is free and IRB approval is “pending.” [7] |
| FDA position | Clinic presents PRP as regenerative care. [1] | FDA states that regenerative medicine therapies have not been approved to treat autism. [2][3] Neither FDA page names PRP specifically; its regulatory status for this use requires clarification. |

Important distinctions
This chart documents promotional claims and an invitation to apply. It is not proof of treatment outcomes, of successful research, or of misconduct. FDA guidance addresses regenerative medicine products broadly; whether this exact PRP preparation requires FDA authorization depends on its properties and intended use. Research involving children carries additional federal protections where FDA or federal rules apply.
