Clinical trials

This study Phase 1 clinical trial aimed to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of intravenously administered extracellular vesicles derived from umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSC-EVs; VinEV-3) in patients with liver cirrhosis. The trial uses a rolling six dose-escalation design, enrolling up to 12 adult patients (18-75 years) with Child-Pugh scores of 7-12. The results of this study are expected to provide initial clinical evidence supporting the safety and potential therapeutic role of UC-MSC-EVs as a novel cell-free treatment approach for liver cirrhosis.

The goal of this Phase I clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of autologous CD19-targeted chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy in adults with refractory systemic lupus erythematosus who have demonstrated inadequate response to standard-of-care immunosuppressive treatments. The primary questions this study aims to address are: What is the incidence, nature, and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events following CD19 CAR-T cell infusion? Is administration of CD19 CAR-T cell therapy feasible and tolerable in patients with refractory systemic lupus erythematosus? This study is conducted as a single-arm trial without a comparison group. Participants will: Undergo leukapheresis for collection of autologous peripheral blood mononuclear cells Receive a protocol-defined lymphodepleting chemotherapy regimen prior to CAR-T cell infusion Receive a single intravenous infusion of approximately 1.0 × 10⁶ CD19 CAR-T cells per kilogram of body weight Undergo scheduled clinical evaluations, laboratory testing, and longitudinal follow-up to assess safety, tolerability, and clinical parameters

This clinical trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of autologous bone marrow mononuclear cell transfusion in treating cerebral palsy caused by cerebral hypoxia. The key questions the study seeks to answer are: * What is the safety profile in terms of adverse events (AE) and serious adverse events (SAE) observed over the 9 months following the first transplantation? * How does autologous bone marrow mononuclear cell (BM MNC) transplantation impact the gross motor function (GMFM-88) scores and Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) scores in children with cerebral palsy? * How does autologous BM MNC transplantation influence muscle tone (Modified Ashworth Scale score) and hand motor function (MACS/Mini-MACS scale) in children with cerebral palsy, 9 months post the initial transplantation? Fifty-eight selected patients, aged 1 to 10 years and diagnosed with spastic cerebral palsy due to brain hypoxia, will be randomly divided into two groups: * Group A: will receive two BM MNC infusions with the first at baseline and the second at 6 months ± 21 days (T6) via the spinal route. * Group B: will serve as the control group for the first 9 months. During this period, patients will not receive cell transplantation but will undergo a similar rehabilitation and medication regimen as Group A. After 9 months, Group B will receive two BM MNC infusions: the first at 9 months ± 21 days (T9) and the second at 15 months ± 21 days (T15) via the spinal route, with a follow-up at 18 months ± 21 days (T18) compared to baseline. * Both groups: will undergo rehabilitation for 10 days per month, three times, either at rehabilitation centers or performed by a rehabilitation technician at home. After this period, continued training will be conducted by family members. The combined medication regimen will include muscle relaxants (if muscle spasticity is present), vitamins, and neuroprotective drugs (Piracetam).

Hormones are a chemical substance synthesized and secreted by endocrine gland. Several vital hormones, including Mullerian hormone (AMH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and Estradiol (E2), play crucial roles in regulating female sexual function.- Hormone therapy is used to treat female hormone deficiency and results in a significant improvement, but long-term use increases cardiovascular disease or cancer risk. Other treatments do not give apparent results. Therefore, it is necessary to develop new and effective treatments to achieve the requirements of improving health in general and sexual health in particularly in women. AD-MSCs have been widely used as autologous and allogeneic stem cell sources to treat numerous disease recently, and they have been proven to be safe. The phase I trial showed that administration of autologous AD-MSCs at the dose of 1.0 x 10\^6 cells/kg patient bodyweight was safe for patients with sex hormone deficiency. The therapy introduced potential improvement in sexual and general quality of life indicating by the increased FSFI. Therefore, this phase II trial to evaluate efficiency of autologous adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells therapy in treatment of female patients with sexual function impairment.

Sexual functional deficiency affects largely the physical conditions, life and sexual quality of the patients. Hypogonadism affects about 4 to 5 million men in the US, and the incidence increases with age. In our recent phase I clinical trial, we have shown that intravenous adipose - derived MSC administration was safe in female and male patients with hormone deficiency. Post-transplantation sexual satisfaction was observed in all patients enrolled in this study. Testosterone levels in males increased significantly after transplantation and were maintained at high levels for up to 6 months before decreasing again at the 12-month follow-up. The aim of this clinical trial was to assess the safety and effectiveness of allogeneic administration of MSCs in middle-aged people with sexual functional deficiency.
