Cell therapy is a novel investigational approach to enhance stroke recovery. Intra-arterial (IA) delivery has the potential advantage of selectively targeting cell therapies to the ischemic brain tissue. Over the past 10 years, IA cell delivery has been under investigation in patients with cardiac and peripheral vascular disease, and these studies have reported promising results. This article reviews the trial methodology and procedural details of these studies and discusses the rationale and challenges in designing IA cell therapy trials for ischemic stroke.
