Promising fistula treatment for kids with Crohn's hits early end

NCT ID NCT04701411

First seen Oct 31, 2025 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 28 times

Summary

This study tested a treatment called darvadstrocel for children with Crohn's disease who have complex anal fistulas (abnormal tunnels from the rectum to the skin). Participants first had surgery to clean the fistula, then received an injection of darvadstrocel near the fistula. The goal was to see if the fistula would close and stay closed for up to a year. The study was terminated early and enrolled only 7 children, so results are limited.
