Could stem cells tame brain inflammation? new study tracks Real-World results
NCT ID NCT07145502
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study follows 76 people with autoimmune or post-infection brain inflammation who are receiving stem cell or exosome treatments. Researchers will track changes in symptoms, inflammation markers, and quality of life. The goal is to see if these experimental therapies can help when standard treatments have failed.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- stem cells and exosomes
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could point toward a new way to manage hard-to-treat brain inflammation conditions like autoimmune encephalitis.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early observational study with no control group, so results may not prove the treatment works. Risks include reactions to the infusions and uncertainty about long-term benefits.

Who can take part
This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.
Who is studied
The study will include pediatric, adult, and older adult patients aged 6 to 70 years who present with clinically confirmed or strongly suspected neuroinflammatory conditions of autoimmune or post-infectious origin. These include but are not limited to autoimmune encephalitis, post-viral encephalopathies (e.g., following measles, CMV, EBV, SARS-CoV-2), early-stage panencephalitis, and chronic neuroimmune syndromes such as ME/CFS and long COVID with CNS involvement. Patients are eligible for inclusion if they have a persistent neuroinflammatory or neurocognitive condition that has not responded adequately to standard therapies or has relapsed. Diagnostic confirmation may include MRI findings, CSF analysis, neuropsychological testing, and immunological profiling (e.g., autoantibodies, cytokines).
