Own stem cells may boost movement in kids with cerebral palsy
NCT ID NCT07527104
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether injecting a child's own bone marrow cells into the spine, combined with rehabilitation, can improve motor function in children with cerebral palsy from birth injuries. Sixty children aged 1 to 6 years will be randomly assigned to receive either the cell treatment plus rehab or rehab alone. The main goal is to see if the cell group shows greater improvement in gross motor skills over 12 months.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells (the child's own cells)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a new way to improve motor function in children with cerebral palsy, potentially reducing lifelong disability.
What could go wrong
This is an early, small trial (60 children) with no placebo control. The procedure carries risks from bone marrow aspiration and spinal injection, and benefits may be modest or absent.
