Stem cell therapy for children with autism
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests whether stem cells from donated umbilical cord tissue can help children with autism. It is for children aged 4–14 who weigh at least 10 kg and are otherwise healthy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be between 4 and 14 years old.

This study tests a combination of experimental treatments for children with autism spectrum disorder. It may help if your child has not had stem cell or glutathione therapy before.
This is an early-stage study exploring a new experimental treatment for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Researchers will work with your child and family to test whether this approach is safe and how it might help with autism symptoms.
This trial tests whether an IV infusion of lab-made donor stem cells is safe for people with autism. It mainly looks at side effects and whether the treatment can be given without causing harm.
This study tests whether a combination of stem cell therapy, gut microbiome restoration (using specially prepared stool), and dietary changes can improve autism symptoms, communication, social behavior, and digestive issues. Researchers believe gut health and immune system problems may contribute to autism, and this trial explores whether treating these areas helps.
This study looks at blood samples from children (and sometimes parents) to see if certain protein patterns can help identify or better understand autism spectrum disorder. The results could support finding “biomarkers,” which are measurable signs that may guide future research or care.
This trial tests a stem cell treatment for children and adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder. It aims to see if this treatment is safe and if it can help improve autism symptoms.
