First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This early-stage trial tests whether infusions of stem cells from donated newborn tissue are safe for young people aged 4 to 39 with dilated cardiomyopathy, a condition where the heart becomes enlarged and weak. Up to 36 participants will receive three intravenous doses over 30 days. Researchers will monitor for serious side effects and measure changes in heart function over a year.
