Be a Pet Health Hero
Help advance a new era of veterinary care by participating in a Gallant clinical trial
Our investigational regenerative therapies are part of a growing movement to restore health at the source—and clinical studies are how we get there.
Why Stem Cells?
Gallant’s uterine-derived stem cell therapies are built on mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) sourced from healthy, FDA-qualified donors. These stem cells are being studied for their ability to target sites of immune dysregulation, modulate inflammatory responses, and restore normal biological function. Unlike traditional treatments that only manage symptoms, stem cells offer a disease-modifying approach—one that holds potential to improve quality of life by addressing the root cause of chronic and immune-mediated diseases.
Explore our Clinical Trials
Gallant is evaluating investigational stem cell therapies intended to address the underlying biology of disease. Each clinical trial is fully funded by Gallant and conducted by trained veterinary professionals at participating clinics.
Clinical Trial participants receive:
- Access to investigational therapy
- Study-related veterinary care (e.g., physical exams, blood work, urinalysis)
- The chance to be a Pet Health Hero by helping Gallant demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of our products for FDA approval

Feline Chronic Gingivostomatitis (FCGS), also known as gingivostomatitis or caudal stomatitis, is a painful and debilitating inflammatory condition affecting the mouth. It can occur in up to 10% of cats, affecting millions of cats in the United States alone.
FCGS causes painful sores in the mouth, which may lead to the following symptoms:
- Reduced appetite
- Weight loss
- Drooling
- Excessive licking
- Reluctance to groom
- Increased vocalization
- Bleeding gums
Treatment for FCGS typically involves removal of some or all of the teeth and daily oral medications to reduce inflammation and pain. Thirty to fifty percent of cats do not improve substantially after these treatments and continue to suffer from chronic pain, a condition known as refractory FCGS.
In refractory FCGS, pain medications and anti-inflammatories may have little effect, and cats may be euthanized due to their poor quality of life. Fortunately, stem cell therapy may offer new hope for cats who have exhausted other treatment options.
This study is evaluating stem cell therapy for refractory FCGS in cats who have not responded to tooth extraction and medical management.
Feline Osteoarthritis (OA) is a progressive joint disease characterized by joint inflammation and cartilage breakdown. OA affects 90% of older cats resulting in increased pain and decreased mobility which negatively impact physical appearance, energy and vitality, mood, sociability, and physical and mental wellbeing.
Clinical signs of Feline OA include:
- Reduced willingness to jump or reduced height of jumping
- Difficulty using stairs
- Slowing down
- Behavior changes including irritability and resenting being touched
- Reduced ability to use the litterbox
- Lameness is more rare
Common treatments for feline OA involve giving anti-inflammatories, pain medications and joint supplements, but these treatments do not address the underlying progressive disease and daily medication administration can be stressful for cats and their caregivers.
This study is evaluating stem cell therapy for cats with feline osteoarthritis.

The speed at which clinical signs improve after stem cell therapy is variable and depends on individual factors and the underlying disease state. Improvement in clinical signs can be seen in some animals as quickly as 24 hours after treatment. Resolution of lesions often takes longer as tissue repair takes time. Whereas some animals improve dramatically after one treatment, others require multiple treatments to see significant improvement.
