Cell therapy for chronic anal fissures
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests a new treatment made from special cells (called E-CEL UVEC) for people with long-lasting anal fissures that haven't healed with standard treatments. The goal is to see if this cell-based therapy can reduce pain and help the fissure heal.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You have a chronic anal fissure (a tear in the anal lining that has lasted 6 weeks or more)

This trial tests a new combined surgical method for people with a chronic anal fissure (a small tear in the skin around the anus) that has not healed and is causing muscle spasms. The goal is to see if this surgery can help the fissure heal and relieve pain and spasm.
This study compares two surgical approaches to treat chronic anal fissures (painful tears in the anus) that haven't healed with conservative treatment. The goal is to determine which technique is safer and more effective.
This study tests whether AI-written educational materials can help people with chronic anal fissure. It's for patients who are beginning simple treatments (like diet or cream) and can read Turkish.
This Phase 1 study tests whether a donated-cell treatment (given with a minor procedure) can help heal simple anal fistulas. It mainly focuses on safety first, but may also look at how well the fistula closes.
This study tests an experimental cell-based injection to help heal a type of anal fistula (an abnormal tunnel between the bowel and skin near the anus). It may be an option for people whose fistula is simple, not caused by Crohn's disease, and not currently infected or painful.
This trial tests a hydrogel made from natural materials to help heal a specific type of anal fistula. It may be an option if you have a single high transsphincteric fistula with a seton in place for at least four weeks.
