Who this trial is looking for

This trial is looking for people aged 19 and older with shoulder pain from large or massive rotator cuff tears that have not improved with regular treatments. Participants will receive treatment involving stem cells from umbilical cord tissue while undergoing surgery to repair their rotator cuff.
