Scientists test recycled cartilage cells to fix Worn-Out hips

NCT ID NCT05553132

Summary

This early-stage study is testing whether a new cartilage repair method is safe for people with hip cartilage damage. Doctors will take a small sample of a patient's own cartilage cells, mix them with donor stem cells, and implant this mixture back into the damaged hip area. The study will enroll 15 participants to monitor for any side effects and see if the approach shows promise for improving hip pain and function.
