Recruiting studies
- NCT02161783Recruiting
Second transplant for blood stem cell graft failure
This trial studies treatment after a first stem cell transplant fails to produce lasting blood recovery. It may help people who need a second transplant because their counts never fully recovered or then dropped again.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges Any age - NCT06987214RecruitingPhase 1
Regenerative stem cell therapy for bronchiectasis
This trial tests whether transplanting your own lung stem cells can repair damaged airways caused by bronchiectasis. It is for people with moderate to severe breathing impairment and aims to improve lung function.
Qionghai, HainanAges 25–80 - NCT05379738Recruiting
Exercise program to aid recovery after donor stem cell transplant
This trial tests whether an adapted physical activity (tailored exercise) can help people recover after a donor stem cell transplant for blood cancers. If you’re able to participate, the program may support strength, well-being, and recovery during the transplant process.
NiceAges 18 years+ - NCT06599346Recruiting
MSC supernatant for skin and mouth sores in blood cancer patients
This trial tests whether a liquid made from stem cells (MSC supernatant) can help prevent or treat mouth, skin, and bladder sores that often happen after stem cell transplants, chemotherapy, or radiation therapy.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18 years+ - NCT06612710RecruitingPhase 1
A study of NouvSoma001 for recent stroke recovery
This trial tests a new treatment called NouvSoma001 for people who have had an ischemic stroke within the last week. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and helps improve muscle strength and overall recovery.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT06764329Enrolling by invitationPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem cell therapy for male hair loss
This trial tests if injecting donor stem cells into the scalp can help regrow hair in men with male pattern baldness. It may offer a new option for those who haven't found other treatments effective.
RawalpindiAges 20–59 - NCT03980769RecruitingPhase 2
Stem cell transplant trial for non-cancer blood disorders
This Phase 2 study tests a specific chemotherapy combination (treosulfan, fludarabine, and thiotepa) before an unrelated or matched donor stem cell transplant. It may help people with certain non-cancer blood and immune disorders by trying to reset the immune system using donor stem cells.
Seattle, WashingtonAges Up to 50 years - NCT03000244Recruiting
Long-term follow-up after stem cell or gene therapy
This study checks how people do long-term after stem cell transplant, cellular therapy, or gene therapy. It may help doctors track longer-term health effects and recovery and improve future care.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 4–120 - NCT06598202RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Nasal Drop Therapy for ALS
This trial tests a nasal drop made from tiny cell particles (extracellular vesicles) for ALS. The goal is to see if it's safe and if it can slow down the disease. It may be an option if your ALS is in the early to moderate stage.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06620809RecruitingPhase 1
Safety and efficacy of NouvSoma001 for NMOSD
This trial tests a new treatment called NouvSoma001 for neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), a condition where the immune system attacks the optic nerves and spinal cord. It looks at whether the drug is safe and helps people who have had a recent attack with severe pain, trouble walking, or bladder/bowel problems.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–65 - NCT00692939RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem cell transplant for people with Crohn’s who need new options
This trial studies whether an “autologous” stem cell transplant (using your own cells) can improve Crohn’s disease that has not responded to standard treatments. It may help people who have ongoing, hard-to-control Crohn’s even after medicines and/or who have complications that make surgery risky.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 10–60 - 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 - 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+ - NCT05745532RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Autologous stem cell treatment to improve beta thalassemia major
This early-phase trial tests a new way to restore working blood-making cells using your own stem cells for people with transfusion-dependent beta thalassemia major. The goal is to improve safety and blood results, and possibly reduce problems from the disease.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 8–16 - 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 - NCT03631420RecruitingPhase 1
Stem cell treatment to prevent lung disease in very premature babies
This Phase 1 trial tests whether giving stem cells into a breathing tube is safe and may help prevent bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), a serious lung condition in very premature infants. It focuses on babies soon after birth who already need breathing support and are at risk.
TainanAges 3 days–2 months - 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 - 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 - NCT06794294RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem cell therapy for chronic shoulder pain from partial rotator cuff tear
This trial tests whether a single injection of stem cells from donated umbilical cord tissue can help people with a partial rotator cuff tear that hasn't healed with standard treatments like physical therapy or injections. If you have had shoulder pain for at least 3 months and a partial tear confirmed by MRI or ultrasound, you may be eligible.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for stem cell?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 742 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.
