All clinical trials have been listed excluding those identified as withdrawn or suspended.
The list is not exhaustive as preference has been given to therapeutic applications over clinical trials and pre-clinical research where available.
This list does not constitute medical advice. Please consult your physician for consideration of treatment options. For more information on any of the trials listed please follow the link for the specific trial and locate the contact information and address your query to the trial site directly. Abstracts of all publications are available on PubMed (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/). Full articles are available free of charge in some instances but may be premium content requiring payment for access.
The views and opinions expressed in the trials and publications are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the position of the CellCare.
