Safety concerns included uncharacterized immunogenicity risks, inadequate impurity and endotoxin testing in available raw material, the unresolved free-base versus acetate salt form distinction, and, for BPC-157 specifically, an angiogenesis mechanism that raises theoretical concerns for patients with undiagnosed tumors
These observations align with improved peripheral blood flow from nitric oxide-mediated vasodilation, though they could also reflect placebo effects or confirmation bias
Long-term clinical trials are crucial to assess the safety and efficacy of antiangiogenic therapies in different patient populations and disease stages
