NCT ID NCT07398612

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

Summary

This early-stage trial tests a nasal spray made from human stem cell exosomes in 60 people who recently had a stroke. The spray is given once or daily for 14 days, alongside standard care. The main goal is to see if it is safe, and researchers will also check if it helps improve brain function and reduce damage.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Human adipose-derived stem cell exosomes (nasal spray)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a new way to help people recover from stroke without surgery or strong drugs.
What could go wrong
This is an early Phase 1/2 trial with only 60 people, so it is mainly checking safety. The treatment may not improve recovery, and side effects are unknown.
