Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to study the effect of stem cell therapy on common symptoms in patients with spinal cord injury.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells are administered intrathecally by a standard procedure followed by vigorous rehabilitation therapy.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Stem cell

autologous bone marrow mononuclear cell transplantation

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Autologous bone marrow mononuclear cell transplantation
