Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating condition that can result in lifelong disability. Despite significant progress in SCI research, current treatments only offer limited functional recovery. Stem cell-based combinatorial therapies have emerged promising to enhance neural repair and regeneration after SCI. Combining stem cells with growth factors, biomaterials, and other therapeutic agents can improve outcomes by providing a multifaceted approach to neural repair. However, several challenges must be addressed before these therapies can be widely adopted in clinical practice. Standardisation of stem cell isolation, characterisation, and production protocols ensures consistency and safety in clinical trials. Developing appropriate animal models that accurately mimic human SCI is crucial for successfully translating these therapies. Additionally, optimal delivery methods and biomaterials that support the survival and integration of stem cells into injured tissue must be identified. Despite these challenges, stem cell-based combinatorial therapies for SCI hold great promise. Innovative approaches such as gene editing and the use of neural tissue engineering may further enhance the efficacy of these therapies. Further research and development in this area are critical to advancing the field and providing effective therapies for SCI patients. This paper discusses the current evidence and challenges from the literature on the potential of stem cell-based combinatorial therapies for SCI.
