Stem cells for skin graft donor site healing
Treatments studied
Part of Injuries & trauma, Skin clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 60 years old.
- You have large scars, large non-cancerous growths, or fresh wounds that need skin graft surgery.
- Your donor site (where skin is taken from) can be your thigh, belly, or back.
- You do not have serious health problems like heart disease, liver or kidney issues, infections, blood disorders, cancer, or autoimmune diseases.
- You are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or within 1 year after pregnancy ended.

This Phase 2 study tests whether injecting a patient’s own fibroblast cells (skin-support cells) into the wound area after a below-knee amputation can help the stump skin heal and work better. It’s intended for people who already have (or are close to having) a prosthetic fitting.
This trial tests whether stem cells from umbilical cord blood can help heal large burns. It might help reduce the need for repeat surgeries and improve healing of deep burns.
This study tests whether giving special stem cells (called mesenchymal stem cells) can help improve poor graft function after a stem cell transplant. It aims to boost your blood cell counts so you recover better.
This trial tests human umbilical cord tissue stem cells to help heal venous leg ulcers that have lasted at least one month. It’s for adults who meet specific wound size/depth and health criteria and are willing to follow study visits.
This trial tests whether mesenchymal stem cells (a type of healing cell) can help burn wounds recover better when combined with skin grafting. The goal is to improve how well the grafted skin takes and heals.
This trial tests a treatment combining special healing cells (HUMSCs) and collagen protein applied directly to severe third-degree burns. It aims to help these deep wounds heal faster and with better outcomes.
