Stem cell study for chronic lower back pain
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests a stem cell treatment for people with ongoing lower back pain. It aims to see if the therapy can help reduce pain and improve your quality of life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 85 years old
- You have had lower back pain for at least 3 months
- You have had an MRI in the last year showing a specific back problem (like a bulging disc or arthritis)
- You rate your average pain as at least a 4 out of 10
- You have not had any stem cell therapy in the past

Other trials that look related to this one.
This Phase 1 study tests the safety and early effectiveness of an umbilical cord stem cell injection for people with persistent lumbar (lower back) disc-related pain that has not improved with standard care. If you qualify, it may offer a new treatment option, while researchers closely monitor side effects and pain changes.
This trial tests a new treatment that uses your own stem cells to help heal damaged discs in your lower back. The stem cells are injected into the disc during a minimally invasive procedure to reduce pain and improve function.
This Phase 2 trial tests whether injecting your own stem cells into a few back discs can reduce chronic low back pain that has not improved with standard treatments. It may help by targeting disc-related (degenerative) wear seen on MRI, but it requires detailed MRI and blood test screening.
This study tests if injecting a special cell therapy into a damaged spinal disc can reduce chronic low back pain. It is for people who have had low back pain for at least 6 months and haven't gotten enough relief from other treatments like physical therapy or pain medication.
This study is looking at how people with chronic low back pain respond to spinal cord stimulation (a device that sends gentle electrical pulses to the spine to reduce pain). If you already have a spinal cord stimulator, you may help researchers understand how well it works and how it affects your brain.
This trial tests whether magnetic fields applied to your back can relieve chronic lower back pain that has lasted at least 12 weeks. It's for people aged 18 to 64 who are willing to attend all study visits.
