First seen Mar 03, 2026 · Last updated Jun 06, 2026 · Updated 18 times
Summary
This study tests a strong chemotherapy combination followed by a stem cell transplant in 53 people with autoimmune neurologic diseases (like multiple sclerosis or stiff person syndrome) that did not improve with standard treatments. The goal is to weaken the overactive immune system that attacks the nerves and then rebuild it with the patient's own stem cells. Researchers are checking for serious side effects and whether the disease gets better.
