Stem cells show promise for fixing diabetic eye damage
NCT ID NCT03403699
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This early-stage study explores whether stem cells made from a person's own blood can help repair damaged blood vessels in the eye caused by diabetic retinopathy. Researchers will create these stem cells in a lab and test them in animals to see if they can grow new, healthy blood vessels. The study involves 20 participants and is focused on understanding how the cells work, not yet on treating people directly.
