Womb repair: stem cells aim to help babies with spina bifida walk
NCT ID NCT04652908
Summary
This early-stage trial is testing whether adding living stem cells from placenta to fetal surgery can improve walking ability in babies with spina bifida. The study will enroll 55 pregnant women whose babies have been diagnosed with this spinal cord defect. Researchers hope the stem cells might protect and repair nerves during development, building on improvements seen with fetal surgery alone.
