RECRUITING

Study Transplanting Bone Marrow Cells Into Salivary Glands to Treat Dry Mouth Caused by Radiation Therapy

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The goal of this clinical research study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of injecting certain cells that you produce in your bone marrow called mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) into your salivary glands. Participants will have head and neck cancer that was treated with radiation therapy, and in this study will: * Undergo a collection of bone marrow using a needle; * Donate saliva; * Undergo a salivary gland ultrasound; and, * Complete questionnaires that ask about dry mouth Participants can expect to be in this study for up to 30 months. There is no expanded access program available per this protocol.

Official Title
