Stem cell injection for severe chemical eye burns
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests whether injecting special stem cells (from a donor) under the white of the eye can help heal severe chemical burns. It is for people with very serious burns that affect the entire eye surface, and the treatment aims to reduce damage and improve healing.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You had a chemical burn to your eye within the past 15 days.
- The burn is severe, affecting the whole front surface of the eye (called stage VI).
- You have not had a serious eye condition like vision loss or glaucoma before the burn.
- You are not taking medications that weaken your immune system (like steroids or methotrexate).
- You are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant during the study.

This study tests a new treatment that uses your own stem cells to repair a damaged cornea after a chemical burn. It may help reduce scarring and improve vision.
This trial tests whether injecting stem cells around the eyes can help people with severe dry eye caused by graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after a stem cell or bone marrow transplant. It aims to reduce eye pain and improve vision when standard treatments haven't worked.
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a treatment made from your own mouth tissue cells to help regrow the front surface of the eye when both eyes have severe limbal stem cell deficiency. If you qualify, you may receive an autologous (made from your own tissue) cell sheet to improve eye healing and vision.
This trial tests a new way to repair the eye surface by using a thin sheet of cells from your own mouth, which are grown in the lab and then placed on your eye. It may help people whose eye damage hasn't improved with other treatments and who have very poor vision.
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 study tests whether a special substance from stem cells (called secretome) can help heal chronic surface problems on the eye that haven't gotten better with standard treatments. It's for people with a stubborn scratch or defect on the cornea that has lasted more than 14 days.
