Stem cell therapy for type 2 diabetes
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests using your own fat stem cells to help control blood sugar in type 2 diabetes. It might help if you have had diabetes for less than 10 years and are not on insulin.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have had type 2 diabetes for less than 10 years
- Your BMI is 25 or higher
- Your HbA1c (average blood sugar over 3 months) is between 7.5% and 9.5%
- You take metformin and/or pioglitazone, with or without sulfonylurea, and do not take insulin

This trial tests whether transplanting your own insulin-making cells (islets) can help control blood sugar if you have type 2 diabetes and your pancreas is not making enough insulin. The goal is to reduce or stop your need for insulin injections.
This study tests an experimental stem cell treatment (DT2-SCT) to see if it can improve blood sugar control in people with type 2 diabetes who need insulin. It is a double-blind study, so neither you nor the study team will know if you get the real treatment or a placebo.
This trial tests a new type of cell therapy called cfMSC for people with type 2 diabetes. The goal is to see if it can help control blood sugar better, possibly by helping the body use insulin more effectively.
This trial tests a new stem cell treatment for people with type 2 diabetes that is difficult to control with standard medications. The treatment uses a special kind of stem cell to try to improve blood sugar levels.
This trial tests if a type of stem cell product (exosomes) can safely and effectively help people with type 2 diabetes. Researchers will give infusions to see if it improves blood sugar control and pancreatic function.
This study tests a treatment that uses a patient's own immune cells to help the body make more insulin. It may help people with type 1 diabetes manage their blood sugar better.
