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.

- You are 18 years or older
- You have had type 2 diabetes for less than 10 years

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 trial tests a new stem cell treatment (DT2-SCT) for people with type 2 diabetes who need insulin. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and helps control blood sugar better than a placebo.
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 trial tests whether a type of stem cell treatment (called cfMSC) can help people with long-standing type 2 diabetes who are not getting good blood sugar control from their current treatments. The therapy aims to improve blood sugar levels and may help preserve the body's ability to produce insulin.
This trial tests whether injecting your own stem cells into the duodenum (the first part of the small intestine) is safe and possible for people with type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance. The goal is to see if this can help improve blood sugar control.
