Stem cells and cooling for brain injury in newborns
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests whether adding stem cells to standard cooling therapy helps newborns who had a lack of oxygen around birth. It aims to improve brain recovery and reduce long-term problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby was born at 34 weeks or later
- Your baby has moderate to severe brain injury from lack of oxygen at birth
- Your baby has already received cooling therapy as part of standard care
- Your baby does not have major birth defects or genetic conditions
- Your baby does not have a severe infection or bleeding problem

This trial studies whether cooling a newborn's body after a difficult birth helps prevent brain damage. Researchers will track babies treated with this cooling therapy and use brain imaging to see how well it works.
This trial is testing a treatment for newborns who had low oxygen around birth, leading to brain injury. It may help babies who did not get certain medicines before birth.
This study compares different approaches to “cooling” treatment in newborns with mild hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (mild brain injury from not enough oxygen around birth). The goal is to see which approach works best and is safest for babies like yours.
This early-phase study tests whether using a baby’s own cord blood stem cells is safe and feasible for newborns with brain injury from lack of oxygen around birth. It may help researchers find new ways to treat hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (brain injury due to oxygen deprivation) in addition to standard care like cooling.
This Phase 3 study tests whether cooling a newborn’s body can help babies with mild brain injury after a difficult birth. It aims to see if cooling improves brain-related outcomes compared with standard care.
This trial studies outcomes in newborns who had breathing problems from low oxygen before or during birth and were treated with a cooling therapy (therapeutic hypothermia). It may help doctors understand which babies benefit most and what recovery looks like over time.
