Personalized cell therapy aims to restore swallowing after cancer
NCT ID NCT05421689
Summary
This study is testing whether a patient's own muscle cells can safely improve swallowing problems caused by head and neck cancer treatments like surgery or radiation. Researchers take a small muscle sample, grow the cells in a lab, and inject them back into the tongue. The goal is to strengthen the tongue and help patients swallow better and more safely.
