Testing how epidural spinal cord stimulation may help chronic pain
This study looks at how a device that sends mild signals to the area around your spinal cord may work for long-lasting (chronic) pain. You may be asked to visit a research lab, have blood taken, and follow the study plan so researchers can understand the treatment’s effects.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–89 - NCT06839300Recruiting
Blood biomarkers in spinal cord injury study
This study is looking for people with a spinal cord injury from a blunt force (not a penetrating injury like a gunshot or stab wound) to see if certain substances in the blood (called biomarkers) can help doctors understand the injury better and predict recovery. It involves an initial blood sample within 24 hours of the injury and follow-up assessments.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 19 years+ - NCT07499284Recruiting
Haplo-Cord Stem Cell Transplant for Aplastic Anemia
This trial tests a new way of using a mix of donor stem cells (from a half-matched family member and a cord blood unit) to treat aplastic anemia, a condition where the bone marrow stops making enough blood cells. The goal is to see if this transplant approach is safe and helps rebuild healthy blood cells.
Suzhou, JiangsuAges 14 years+ - NCT07297576Recruiting
Sulforaphane to speed blood recovery after cord blood transplant
This trial tests if a natural compound called sulforaphane can help your blood cells recover faster after a cord blood transplant for high-risk blood cancers. If you qualify, you would receive this supplement along with your transplant.
TianjingAges 18 years+ - NCT06792682RecruitingPhase 1
Cord blood cells for poor graft function after transplant
This study tests whether umbilical cord blood cells can help patients whose blood counts have dropped again after a stem cell transplant. It may be an option for people who have recovered initially but later develop low blood cell levels.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT04707300RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
HTLP injection to speed immune recovery after cord blood transplant
This Phase 1/2 study tests whether a specific immune-cell “starter” injection (HTLP) can help adults rebuild their immune system faster after an umbilical cord blood transplant for blood cancers. It mainly focuses on safety and whether immune recovery improves.
ParisAges 18–66 - NCT05823376Recruiting
Avatrombopag to help platelets recover after bone marrow transplant
This trial studies whether avatrombopag can help your platelet count recover after a bone marrow transplant from an unrelated donor (UCBT) in certain bone marrow failure diseases. If platelets recover better, it may reduce risks related to low platelets after transplant.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 12 years+ - NCT07047456RecruitingPhase 3
Stem cell infusion timing and graft-versus-host disease risk in blood cancer patients
This trial looks at whether the time when stem cells are infused affects the chance of developing graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) after a cord blood transplant. It may help find the best timing to improve outcomes for people with blood cancers.
Hefei, AnhuiAges Any age - NCT06693791RecruitingPhase 2
Romiplostim for platelet recovery after cord blood transplant
This trial tests a drug called Romiplostim N01 to help platelet levels recover faster in people with blood cancers who have had a cord blood transplant. It may reduce the need for platelet transfusions and lower bleeding risk.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT05706896Recruiting
Cord blood plasma injections for dry macular degeneration
This trial tests whether injections made from umbilical cord blood “platelet-rich plasma” can improve vision in people with dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in both eyes. It targets older adults with specific vision levels and no major other eye or medical problems that could affect the results.
RomeAges 65 years+ - NCT06536062Recruiting
Cord blood and platelet plasma for dry macular degeneration
This trial tests if a treatment made from umbilical cord blood and platelet-rich plasma can help people with dry age-related macular degeneration. The treatment is given as an injection into the eye, and the goal is to see if it slows vision loss or improves sight.
Rome, RomeAges 65 years+ - NCT07579468Recruiting
How Mom's Exercise During Pregnancy Affects Baby's Blood
This study looks at whether mothers who stayed active during pregnancy have babies with different healthy markers in their umbilical cord blood at birth. Researchers want to understand if exercise during pregnancy gives babies a health advantage from the start.
Clermont-FerrandAges 1 day–2 days - NCT04744116RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Cord blood cell therapy added to ruxolitinib for steroid-resistant GVHD
This trial studies whether adding cord-blood–derived cells to ruxolitinib can improve steroid-resistant acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) affecting the lower gut or liver. It’s meant for people who are not getting better (or are worsening) despite adequate steroid treatment.
Houston, TexasAges 12–80 - NCT06125483Recruiting
Cord blood transplant for cancer relapse after stem cell transplant
This trial tests a second transplant using cord blood after a first stem cell transplant failed to keep the cancer away. It's for people with blood cancers like leukemia that have come back.
Suzhou, JiangsuAges 10–65 - NCT06661382RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Cord blood plasma vs placebo for vulvar lichen sclerosus
This study tests whether a shot of concentrated healing cells from umbilical cord blood (called platelet-rich plasma) can help treat vulvar lichen sclerosus better than a placebo shot. It aims to find a new, safe option for women who are not helped by standard treatments.
Milan, MilanAges 18–80 - NCT06807606RecruitingPhase 2
Cord blood transplant after relapse from first transplant
This trial tests a second transplant using two donated umbilical cord blood units for people whose blood cancer returned after a first stem cell transplant. It aims to offer a potential cure for high-risk blood cancers.
Houston, TexasAges Up to 60 years - NCT07274527Recruiting
Amnioinfusion for babies exposed to thick meconium during labor
This trial tests whether adding fluid into the womb (amnioinfusion) during labor can protect a baby's lungs and health after being exposed to thick meconium (baby's first poop). It may help reduce breathing problems and improve long-term outcomes.
Milwaukee, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT07301866RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing an improved dose of UM171 for cord blood transplant
This trial tests a higher dose of UM171 to make cord blood transplants safer and more effective for people with certain blood cancers or bone marrow diseases. It aims to help patients who don't have a suitable donor.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18–67 - NCT02727803RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized natural killer cell therapy for blood cancers
This trial tests a customized immune-cell treatment (NK cells) for certain blood cancers to try to control or eliminate cancer cells. You may qualify if your cancer has come back, did not fully respond, or has higher risk features.
Houston, TexasAges 15–80 - NCT02391519Recruiting
Study how high altitude affects body energy signaling
This study compares how the body responds to high altitude around the time of a planned C-section, including a signal involved in energy use. It may help researchers understand why pregnancy and blood-vessel function can differ at higher elevations.

Check if skin stimulation lowers blood pressure drops after spinal injury
This study tests a skin “stimulation” treatment to see if it helps stabilize blood pressure in people with spinal cord injury who get low blood pressure when sitting up. If you often have dizziness, faintness, or low readings after changing positions, this trial may help find safer ways to manage it.

- Are there clinical trials for cord blood?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 98 recruiting cord blood studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a cord blood trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a cord blood trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
