Recruiting studies

Preventing hepatitis B reactivation after stem cell transplant
This trial tests whether taking the antiviral medicine entecavir before and after a stem cell transplant can prevent hepatitis B from “waking up” again. It may help protect your liver during a high-risk treatment period.
SeoulAges 19–70 - NCT03673748RecruitingPhase 2
Mesenchymal stem cell treatment for lupus kidney inflammation
This trial tests whether donated (allogeneic) stem cells can improve lupus nephritis, a kidney complication of lupus. It is for adults whose lupus kidney disease has not responded well to standard treatments or has come back, and it requires signs of active disease.
Valladolid, ValladolidAges 18 years+ - NCT05855083RecruitingPhase 2
Narsoplimab for high-risk TMA after bone marrow transplant
This trial studies the medicine narsoplimab in children who develop a serious complication called HSCT-TMA after a bone marrow transplant. It aims to improve safety and effectiveness for high-risk cases where the condition is ongoing or causing organ problems.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 4 weeks–17 years - NCT06113705Recruiting
Better MRI and blood tests for glioblastoma treatment response
This study is testing whether special MRI scans and blood tests can help tell the difference between true tumor growth (progression) and a treatment-related reaction called 'pseudoprogression' in people with glioblastoma. The goal is to make treatment decisions more accurate.
RozzanoAges 18 years+ - NCT06423131Recruiting
Comparing two types of stem cell transplants for children
This study compares a newer type of stem cell transplant (using special cells) to the standard method for children who need a half-matched donor. It aims to see if the new approach is safer and works as well.

This early trial tests if airway basal stem cells can help children with a serious lung condition called bronchiolitis obliterans. It aims to improve lung function and reduce the need for oxygen or breathing support.
ShanghaiAges 4 weeks–18 years - NCT03121001RecruitingPhase 2
Transplant from a half-matched donor for aggressive sickle cell
This Phase 2 study tests a “half-matched” stem cell transplant to treat people with aggressive sickle cell disease. It may help by replacing the blood system using stem cells from a related donor who is close but not fully matched.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 16–60 - NCT03810196Recruiting
Stem cell addback after transplant to treat viral or fungal infection
This study tests a stem cell “addback” treatment after a specific type of transplant (with certain immune cells removed). It may help the body recover faster and fight serious viral or fungal infections in children and teens.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges Up to 25 years - NCT07662018Recruiting
Study of stem cell transplant after chemo for children with germ cell tumors
This study looks at how well a stem cell transplant works after a specific combination of chemotherapy drugs (gemcitabine, docetaxel, melphalan, and carboplatin) in children and young adults up to age 21 whose germ cell tumors have come back or not responded to treatment. It may help doctors understand who benefits most from this approach.
Houston, TexasAges 21 years+ - NCT06976229RecruitingPhase 1
Stem cell therapy for recent spinal cord injury
This phase 1 trial tests a new treatment made from stem cells (XS228) for people who had a spinal cord injury 14 to 60 days ago. Doctors want to see if it's safe and if it might help with recovery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT06959771RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene therapy for CD40L deficiency (Hyper-IgM syndrome) - single patient study
This trial tests a new gene therapy that uses a person's own blood stem cells and T cells, which are corrected with a gene-editing tool called base editing. It is designed for people with a specific CD40L gene mutation who also have liver problems and portal hypertension. The goal is to see if this treatment can improve their immune system and liver health.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 37–120 - NCT06377540RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab plus BEAM with stem cell transplant for Hodgkin lymphoma
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab (Keytruda) to the standard BEAM chemotherapy before a stem cell transplant can help people with relapsed Hodgkin lymphoma. It's for patients who are eligible for a transplant and have stable organ function.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT07719946RecruitingPhase 2
Lower dose chemo after stem cell transplant for blood cancers
This trial tests whether a lower dose of the chemotherapy drug cyclophosphamide given after a stem cell transplant is safe and effective for people with blood cancers. The goal is to reduce side effects while still helping prevent the cancer from coming back.
Navi Mumbai, MaharashtraAges 18 years+ - NCT05974280Recruiting
Stem cell treatment for complex anal fistulas
This trial compares two types of stem cell treatments to help heal complex anal fistulas (abnormal tunnels near the anus). You may be eligible if your Crohn’s-related disease is mostly controlled and the fistula has not fully healed with standard treatments.
Nantes, NantesAges 18 years+ - NCT07548983RecruitingPhase 1
Ruxolitinib and azacitidine after stem cell transplant for acute myeloid leukemia
This trial tests whether two drugs—ruxolitinib (a JAK inhibitor) and azacitidine (a low-dose chemotherapy)—can help prevent acute myeloid leukemia from coming back after you receive a stem cell transplant from an unrelated donor. The transplant uses a gentler conditioning approach to reduce side effects while fighting the cancer.

Fungal Infections After Stem Cell Transplants: Long-Term Study
This study follows patients who have received a stem cell transplant from a donor to track and understand fungal infections that can occur afterward. By studying this carefully, researchers hope to better prevent and treat these serious infections in future patients.

Stem cell transplant to protect salivary function after oral cancer
This Phase 1 study tests whether transplanting stem cells into the submandibular gland can help restore saliva function after surgery and radiation for oral cavity squamous cell cancer. You may be considered because you recently had tumor removal and radiation aimed at the neck area, which can damage salivary glands.
GroningenAges 18 years+ - NCT06520176RecruitingPhase 3

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for stem cell?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 738 recruiting stem cell 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 stem cell 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 stem cell 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.
