Evaluating MNV-201 for patients with low risk myelodysplastic syndromes
Official title: A Phase Ib, Open Label, Single or Repeated Dose Exploration Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety and Therapeutic Effects of Infusion of MNV-201 (Autologous CD34+ Cells Enriched With Allogenic Placenta Derived Mitochondria) in Patients With Low-Risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome
Run by Minovia Therapeutics Ltd. · NCT06465160 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is testing a new treatment called MNV-201 to see if it can help people with low risk myelodysplastic syndromes make more blood cells and rely less on blood transfusions.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates for this study are adults aged 18 and older with a diagnosis of low risk MDS who are transfusion dependent and have not responded to existing treatments.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who are not eligible for allogeneic bone marrow transplantation or those who have not exhausted all existing treatment options may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This clinical trial evaluates the safety and efficacy of MNV-201, a treatment involving autologous CD34+ cells enriched with allogenic placenta-derived mitochondria, in patients diagnosed with low risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). The study aims to address the ineffective hematopoiesis and associated anemia in these patients, who are often dependent on blood transfusions. Participants must have a documented history of anemia and have exhausted existing treatment options for low risk MDS. The trial will assess the potential of this innovative cell therapy to improve blood cell production and reduce transfusion dependency.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could significantly improve the quality of life for patients with low risk MDS by reducing their dependence on blood transfusions.
How similar studies have gone: While the approach of using mitochondrial therapy in MDS is relatively novel, similar cell therapy strategies have shown promise in other hematological conditions.
