NeuroRegen Scaffold™ Combined With Stem Cells for Chronic Spinal Cord Injury Repair

About this trial

This is a trial recruiting individuals with chronic complete spinal cord injuries to test the effect of an implanted scaffold combined with stem cells into the injured spinal area. If selected, participants will be randomly assigned to receive either mesenchymal (usually derived from bone marrow, fat, or muscle*) or neural stem cells with the scaffold implant. The scaffold (NeuroRegen™) is a man-made structure intended to mimic the natural tissue environment to support stem cell growth. After surgery, all participants will receive rehabilitation, psychological and nutritional interventions. Outcome assessments will be performed over a 24 month period after surgery. *Note: detailed information about the stem cells, source of cells, need for immune suppression, etc. is not available on clinicaltrials.gov and will need to be provided by the investigator.
