NCT ID NCT05343572
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a drug called plerixafor to see if it can help the body release its own bone marrow stem cells to repair the uterus. It is for women with Asherman's syndrome, a thin uterine lining, or repeated IVF failure. The goal is to thicken the uterine lining and improve pregnancy chances.
