Hope for brain injury patients: stem cells tested in expanded access trial
NCT ID NCT07164482
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This expanded access study offers stem cell therapy (HB-adMSCs) to up to 8 people with traumatic or non-traumatic brain injury who were not eligible for a related trial. Participants receive 6 intravenous infusions over 16 weeks. The goal is to evaluate safety and whether the treatment can improve outcomes.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- HB-adMSCs (Hope Biosciences adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells)
- What this could lead to
- If this works, it could point toward a treatment that helps repair brain damage and improve function after injury.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very small expanded access study (up to 8 patients) with no control group, so results may not be generalizable. Stem cell treatments carry risks like infusion reactions or unknown long-term effects.
