New way to collect cord blood stem cells
Part of Blood & lymphatic clinical trials.
This study is developing a better way to collect stem cells from donated umbilical cord blood. If you are a healthy pregnant woman, donating your baby's cord blood could help improve treatments for diseases.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be a healthy woman (no serious medical conditions).
- You need to agree to donate your baby's umbilical cord blood for research.
- You must not have any viral infections (like HIV or hepatitis).
- You must be able to follow the study instructions and appointments.

This study collects and stores umbilical cord blood at birth so it can be used later for transplant. It also involves blood and cord blood testing to check for infections and key matching features.
This study tests giving you donated umbilical cord blood through an IV to help your body rebuild blood-forming cells after chemotherapy. It may help people who need a stem-cell “reset” using a specific type of cord blood unit that meets strict matching and safety rules.
This research study collects blood cells from healthy young adults to create special stem cells (iPS cells) that can be used for future regenerative medicine. It aims to build a hospital-based platform to make these cells for treating diseases.
This study looks at microscopic particles called extracellular vesicles in the umbilical cord blood of babies born before 28 weeks. Researchers want to see if these particles can help predict severe health problems or death, and eventually improve care for extremely premature newborns.
This trial tests whether using specially prepared blood from umbilical cords (enriched with fetal hemoglobin) works better for premature babies who need blood transfusions. The goal is to see if this approach reduces complications and the number of transfusions needed during hospitalization.
This study collects and stores biological samples (like blood and cord blood) to help researchers understand what causes disease. You may be asked to provide samples during pregnancy, delivery, or from an affected person, depending on eligibility.
