New stem cell therapy tested for scarred livers
NCT ID NCT05331872
Summary
This small, early-stage study tested whether stem cells from umbilical cords are safe and can help improve liver function in adults with cirrhosis. Twenty patients received the stem cell treatment and were monitored for a year for side effects and changes in their liver health scores. The goal was to gather initial safety data and see if this approach could become a new treatment option for a serious condition where the only current cure is a liver transplant.
