Fat cells to fight paralysis: mayo clinic tests revolutionary stem cell treatment
NCT ID NCT04520373
Summary
This study is testing whether stem cells taken from a patient's own body fat can help improve movement and feeling in people paralyzed by a traumatic spinal cord injury. Doctors inject these specially grown cells into the spinal fluid of 40 adults to see if they are safe and can help restore function. The main goal is to measure changes in the patients' ability to move and feel sensations after the treatment.
