Study of injected regenerative cells for rotator cuff tears safety
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study checks the long-term safety of an injection made from your own fat cells for people with a chronic rotator cuff tear. It is mainly focused on monitoring side effects and outcomes over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests whether an accelerated (faster) rehabilitation plan after surgery works as well as standard care for people with a large, multi-tendon rotator cuff tear. It may help you recover function sooner, depending on how your tear and health fit the study rules.
This study tests whether repeated injections of stem cells taken from your own fat can help heal rotator cuff tears in the shoulder. It could be an alternative to surgery, helping to reduce pain and improve function.
This study tests whether injecting your own stem cells (taken from belly fat) during rotator cuff repair helps the tendon heal better and reduces pain. It's for people with a recent, repairable tear who are otherwise healthy.
This study tests a new treatment that injects stem cells from your own body into a torn rotator cuff during surgery, aiming to improve healing and reduce pain. It is for people with small to medium tears that haven't improved with other treatments.
This study follows up with people who already received an experimental stem cell treatment for rotator cuff disease in a previous trial. It aims to check if the treatment remains safe and effective over time.
This study tests a new stem cell injection made from umbilical cord cells to help heal partial tears in the rotator cuff (tendons in the shoulder). If you have a partial tear that hasn't healed with usual care, this treatment might help reduce pain and improve shoulder function.
