Neural stem cell transplant for adults with chronic ischemic stroke
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether placing specially made neural stem cells into the brain can help adults who have lasting weakness after a stroke. The goal is to improve their ability to move their arm or leg.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 75 years old.
- Your stroke must have happened at least 6 months ago but no more than 7 years before you join.
- Your stroke must be confirmed by a CT or MRI scan.
- You must have lasting weakness or trouble moving an arm or leg, but not complete paralysis.
- You must need some help with daily activities but not be totally dependent.
- You must not have had a heart attack, blood clot, or stent placement recently (within the last 6-12 months).

This trial tests whether a patient's own stem cells can be safely injected into the brain to help recovery after a stroke. It is for people who had an ischemic stroke 6 months to 5 years ago and still have moderate to severe symptoms.
This trial tests whether a special type of stem cell (from umbilical cord) can help people recover after a recent ischemic stroke. It aims to see if this treatment can improve movement and reduce disability.
This trial is testing a new treatment using stem cells from donated umbilical cord tissue to help people recover from a recent moderate to severe stroke. It is for patients who cannot receive standard clot-busting treatments.
This trial tests whether a single infusion of umbilical cord stem cells can help people recover from a recent ischemic stroke (stroke caused by a clot). It is for patients who have had their stroke within the last 72 hours and have moderate to severe symptoms.
This trial tests whether stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles can help people recover after a moderate to severe stroke. You may join if you had a stroke in the last 5 days and still have arm or leg weakness, even after standard treatments like clot-busting drugs or clot removal.
This study tests whether bone-marrow stem cells can improve nerve function in people with nerve damage that usually doesn’t recover with current care. It also checks whether the treatment is safe and whether people can be followed over time with repeated nerve exams.
