What the studies found
Stem cell treatment has been studied in people with Cystic fibrosis, but not in randomised trials.
We found 51 published papers on Stem cell treatment and Cystic fibrosis. They were published between 2006 and 2026.
1 of them are studies in people (0 randomised trials), 20 are reviews, 4 are studies in animals and 14 are studies only in the lab.
The most important ones are listed under Sources.
What this means for you: A study in people is not proof that it helps you. Do not stop or change your medicines because of it. Ask your doctor before you start taking it.
