NCT ID NCT06218134

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
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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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
Cancelled before anyone took part.

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.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This completed early trial tested a single intravenous dose of EN001 stem cells in 3 adults with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1E, a severe hereditary nerve disorder with no approved treatment. The main goal was to check safety, including infusion reactions, while also looking for signs of benefit using a standard neuropathy scale. The study builds on prior safety data from 9 patients with a related CMT type.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
human Wharton's jelly-derived mesenchymal stem cells (EN001)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a treatment that slows or stabilizes the progression of severe CMT1E, improving quality of life.
What could go wrong
This was a very small, early-phase trial with only 3 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The treatment may not show clear benefit, and long-term effects are unknown.
