What the studies found
Stem cell treatment has been tested in randomised trials in people with Polycystic kidney disease.
We found 22 published papers on Stem cell treatment and Polycystic kidney disease. They were published between 2013 and 2026.
1 of them are studies in people (1 randomised trials), 1 are reviews, 1 are studies in animals and 15 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.
