The medical centre responsible; Duke University, have now announced another ground breaking trial looking at umbilical cord tissue.
Children participating in the study will receive up to three separate infusions two months apart at Duke University, North Carolina with results published in 2019.

Duke has a long established record investigating cord blood for the treatment of neurological conditions, such as autism, cerebral palsy and stroke, however, this is the first time an academic centre in the USA has registered a trial of this nature using stem cells from cord tissue.
