Stem cells aim to quench Radiation-Induced dry mouth in cancer survivors
NCT ID NCT05820711
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This early-phase study tests whether injecting a person's own bone marrow stem cells into their salivary glands is safe and tolerable for treating dry mouth caused by radiation therapy for head and neck cancer. About 23 participants who finished radiation at least 2 years ago will undergo a bone marrow collection, receive the cell injection, and be followed for up to 30 months. The main goal is to find the safest dose and watch for side effects.
