Could a One-Time surgical product help regrow severed nerves?
NCT ID NCT05565846
First seen Jun 30, 2026 · Last updated Jul 09, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This trial tests a product called NTX-001, which is applied during surgery to repair completely severed nerves in the arm or face. The product combines three solutions and a device, and is given only once. The study includes people with fresh nerve injuries (within 48 hours) that need surgical repair. The goal is to see if NTX-001 can help restore nerve function better than surgery alone.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- NTX-001 (a combination of three solutions and a device applied during surgery)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could offer a new way to repair severed nerves, potentially improving recovery of movement and sensation after injury.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage, open-label study with a small number of participants. The treatment is only for fresh injuries (within 48 hours) and may not work for all nerve types or locations.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion: 1\. The patient has clinical evidence of a peripheral nerve transection from conditions or interventions that has or may result in motor and/or sensory impairment and requires surgical treatment. Exclusion: 1. Patients whose nerve repair will occur greater than 48 hours after nerve transection. 2. Patients requiring repair of the intracranial portion of any nerve. 3. Patients requiring a nerve repair involving an allograft or conduit. 4. Patients expected to show signs of spontaneous recovery by 12 months (e.g., Bell's palsy). 5. Patients who, in the judgement of the investigator, are not likely to demonstrate meaningful recovery within a reasonable time frame during follow-up due to significant muscle atrophy or other morbidity. 6. The patient has documented history or clinical signs of any condition where NTX-001 might not prove beneficial (e.g., systemic neuromuscular disease, systemic neurological deficit, or other treatments known to affect the growth and/or physiology of the neural and vascular system). 7. The patient has a known allergy to polyethylene glycol (PEG) or human grade silicone.
