Back pain study pulled before it even started

NCT ID NCT04735185

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study aimed to compare two treatments for chronic low back pain caused by worn-out discs: injections of a person's own stem cells (from bone marrow) versus steroid injections. It planned to enroll adults with pain lasting over 6 months who had not improved with other treatments. However, the study was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled, so no results are available.
