NCT ID NCT05877300
First seen Nov 11, 2025 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 22 times
Summary
This early study tests a new implant that combines a man-made scaffold with a patient's own stem cells to help regrow a damaged section of the esophagus. Up to 10 adults who have not improved with other treatments will receive the implant and be followed for at least 2 years. The main goals are to see if the implant is safe and if it can form a new, living esophageal tube.
