Stem cell treatment for hepatitis B–related cirrhosis
This early-stage trial tests umbilical cord “mesenchymal” stem cells in people with liver scarring (cirrhosis) that is caused by hepatitis B. It may help improve liver function and related complications, but it is mainly designed to check safety and how well the treatment works.
Jakarta, DKI JakartaAges 18–65 - NCT05345418RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Cord blood stem cell treatment for low male hormones
This trial tests whether umbilical cord stem cells can improve hormone-related sexual function in men with low testosterone and related symptoms. It’s an early-phase study, so the goal is to see safety and whether symptoms and hormone measures improve.
HanoiAges 50–70 - NCT07457125RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Exosome therapy for mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease
This trial tests a new drug made from stem cell exosomes (CB-Exo-A600) to see if it can help people with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. It aims to slow down symptoms and improve quality of life.
BeijingAges 50 years+ - NCT05984628Recruiting
Stem cells for skin graft donor site healing
This study tests if using umbilical cord stem cells on the donor wound (where skin is taken for a graft) helps it heal better. It may reduce pain and scarring at the donor site.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for mesenchymal stem cells?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 123 recruiting mesenchymal stem cells 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 mesenchymal stem cells 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 mesenchymal stem cells 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.
