A dozen years of clinical trials performing advanced cell therapy with perinatal cells

Since we published our article, ‘The first decade of advanced cell therapy clinical trials using perinatal cells (2005–2015)’, we have continued to gather data on cell and gene therapy clinical trials, and we can now report on trends in perinatal cell therapy for the years 2005–2017.

‘Cumulatively from 2005 through 2017 there are a total of 131 advanced cell therapy clinical trials with cells unique to cord blood. Among these trials, 75% of the indications for use are either hematology/oncology (39%), or neurology (36%).’
