Muscle stem cell treatment for urinary leakage in epispadias
Part of Genetic & congenital, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This early-stage study tests whether a person’s own (autologous) muscle stem cell therapy can improve urinary incontinence in children with epispadias. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and whether it can reduce urine leakage.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are male (assigned male at birth).
- You have isolated epispadias (not part of a broader condition).
- You are age 3 or older.
- You have urinary incontinence (trouble holding pee), as defined by a pediatric continence standard.
- You (or your guardian) can provide informed consent to join the study.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This early-phase trial tests a treatment made from muscle fragments to improve urinary incontinence caused by weakness of the urethral “sphincter” (the valve that holds urine). It may help people with certain types of incontinence, but it also requires meeting several bladder and health criteria for safety.
This study tests a non-invasive (no surgery or needles) electrical stimulation device to help men regain bladder control after prostate removal surgery. The device uses gentle electrical pulses on the pelvic floor muscles to retrain them and reduce urine leakage.
This study checks whether an implanted device called ARTUS® can safely and effectively reduce persistent urine leakage in men with severe stress incontinence. You may qualify if your symptoms have been present for over a year and you can attend follow-up visits and manage the device remote control.
This trial tests whether a single injection of stem cells from donated fat tissue can help women over 50 with stress urinary incontinence. It is for those who haven't gotten better with exercises or who want to avoid surgery.
This Phase 3 study tests an implant made from a person’s own muscle-related cells to improve fecal “urge” leakage. It’s for adults whose symptoms haven’t improved enough with usual conservative treatments.
This Phase 1 trial tests whether lab-grown stem cells made from umbilical-cord tissue are safe in people with Peyronie’s disease, erectile dysfunction, or interstitial cystitis. It may help by showing whether this approach is tolerated and safe, before larger studies test how well it works.
