Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 8–16 - NCT04184505RecruitingPhase 3
Testing stem cell transplant in higher-risk myelodysplastic syndrome
This Phase 3 trial tests whether doing an “allogeneic” stem cell transplant works best for people newly diagnosed with higher-risk MDS (a bone marrow disorder). It’s mainly for patients who are healthy enough to receive a transplant and haven’t started MDS treatment yet.
AlessandriaAges 18–70 - NCT02605421RecruitingPhase 2
High-risk neuroblastoma stem cell treatment after initial response
This Phase 2 study tests intensive treatment (high-dose “consolidation”) followed by rescue with your own stem cells for high-risk neuroblastoma. It may help patients keep the cancer from coming back after it has improved or stabilized from initial chemotherapy.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges Up to 30 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.
Fujian, FuzhouAges 18–60 - NCT04104412RecruitingPhase 1
Stem cell injection study for long-lasting disc back pain
This Phase 1 study tests the safety and early effectiveness of an umbilical cord stem cell injection for people with persistent lumbar (lower back) disc-related pain that has not improved with standard care. If you qualify, it may offer a new treatment option, while researchers closely monitor side effects and pain changes.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT01666080Recruiting
Second bone marrow transplant with gentler chemotherapy
This trial studies a “reduced intensity” second transplant using donated blood-forming cells, for people whose first transplant did not fully and reliably restart blood production. It aims to improve donor blood cell growth while using a less harsh conditioning approach.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges Up to 55 years - NCT05152394RecruitingPhase 1
Testing cord stem cell exosome treatment for Parkinson’s safety
This Phase 1 study tests whether a treatment made from donated umbilical cord “exosomes” is safe in people with Parkinson’s disease. It mainly looks at side effects and safety, and could help guide future treatments if it proves tolerable.
