NCT ID NCT07477639
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This early-stage trial tests a cell therapy called TRX319 in 39 adults with progressive multiple sclerosis (MS). The goal is to see if it is safe and to find the best dose. Participants receive TRX319 infusions, sometimes after a chemotherapy drug called bendamustine, and are followed for one year with blood tests, MRI scans, and spinal taps.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- TRX319 (a cell therapy made from donor cells) and bendamustine (a chemotherapy drug used to prepare the body)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a new treatment that slows or stops worsening disability in progressive multiple sclerosis.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early, small trial (39 people) focused on safety. The therapy may not work, and side effects from the cell infusion or bendamustine could occur.
