Stem cell shot for Crohn's pouch fistulas shows promise but study halted
NCT ID NCT05075811
First seen May 08, 2026 · Last updated May 08, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether injecting stem cells from donor bone marrow could safely heal fistulas (abnormal tunnels) in people with Crohn's disease who have a J-pouch after colon removal. About 20 adults were planned to receive a single injection of 100 million stem cells. The study was terminated early, so final results are limited, but the goal was to see if the treatment could close the fistulas and improve symptoms.
