hucMSCs Exosomes for the Treatment of Active Ulcerative Colitis

Subjects have had UC for at least 3 months (since symptom onset). The diagnosis should be confirmed by clinical and endoscopic evidence and confirmed by histopathological reports (note: if no previous reports are available, endoscopy and histopathology may be performed at the time of screening).

Subjects had active UC, defined as four-component Mayo score of 6-12 (inclusive), endoscopy score ≥2, rectal bleeding score ≥1, and bowel frequency score ≥1.

18 to 75 years old, weight ≥40 kg

Meet at least one of the following a/b/c criteria: a. inadequate or non-response to one or more of the following treatments: i) oral prednisone ≥40mg/ day (or equivalent) or budesonide ≥9mg/ day or equivalent or beclomethasone ≥5mg/ day for at least 2 weeks. ii) At least 8 weeks of immunomodulators (AZA≥2 mg/kg/ day or 6-MP≥1.0mg/kg/ day [or lower doses, but 6-thioguanine nucleotides with therapeutic concentrations recorded]). iii) Oral administration of aminosalicylate (e.g. Mesalazine, salazine sulfopyridine, oxalazine, balsalazine) in accordance with the dosage and duration of the applicable local instructions. iv) The frontier therapy for UC has completed at least the induction dosing regimen, At doses greater than or equal to the approved instructions: anti-TNF anti-integrins (e.g., Vederizumab), JAK inhibitors (e.g., Tofaciib, Upatinib, or filgotinib), anti-IL-23 or anti-IL-12/23 drugs for the treatment of UC (e.g., ulinumab), S1PR modulators (e.g., ozamod) b. Corticosteroid dependence: failure to taper successfully to <10mg/ day of prednisone or equivalent or <6mg/ day of budesonide or <5mg/ day of beclometasone within 3 months of starting treatment (i.e., disease onset), or relapse occurs within 3 months of stopping corticosteroids. c. Intolerance to 1 or 2 of the following treatments (e.g., inability to reach the therapeutic dose or duration of treatment due to dose-limiting adverse reactions) i) corticosteroids: Adverse reactions associated with dose-limiting therapy may include, but are not limited to, infections, hyperglycemia, osteoporosis, insomnia, or psychiatric disorders. ii) Immunomodulators: Adverse reactions associated with dose-restricted therapeutic administration may include, but are not limited to, infection, nausea/vomiting, fatigue, myelosuppression, or liver toxicity.
