First seen Feb 28, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 13 times

Summary

This study tests whether a stem cell transplant using the patient's own cells can 'reset' the immune system in teens and young adults (ages 13-28) with severe Crohn's disease that hasn't responded to other treatments. The approach removes overactive immune cells and replaces them with the patient's own blood stem cells. The goal is to reduce inflammation and heal the gut, but patients may still need ongoing medication.
