Registered clinical trials

Studies registered on ClinicalTrials.gov that list Semax as an intervention. Studies that only measure the molecule as a biomarker are excluded. A registration describes a planned or completed protocol; it does not report a result. Active studies are listed first.

No registered study naming this compound was matched. This is a documented gap in registry coverage, not proof that no study exists.

Human and clinical studies

Selected human-study records are shown with their indexed or reviewed study type. Check the original article for the intervention, formulation and controls; the molecule can also be a comparator or measured variable.

Preclinical research, reviews & other publications

Animal studies, laboratory experiments, reviews and other indexed papers answer different questions. A review is secondary evidence; a case report does not estimate how often an outcome occurs.
