Summary

This study tested a stem cell product called Remestemcel-L in 7 adults with severe ulcerative colitis that did not respond to standard treatments. The goal was to see if injecting these cells into the colon could reduce inflammation and help patients avoid surgery. The trial was stopped early, so results are limited.
