Overview

This study is an exploratory clinical study to observe the improvement of lung function before and after the treatment by human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells, and the purpose is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells on non-cardiac surgery-induced lung injury in patients with ischemic heart disease. The study is a randomized parallel controlled study. Patients receive a review of which main content includes symptom improvement, lung function improvement, and adverse events.

Description

This study is an exploratory clinical study to observe the improvement of lung function before and after the treatment by human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells, and the purpose is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells on non-cardiac surgery-induced lung injury in patients with ischemic heart disease.

The study is a randomized parallel controlled study. The research process is as follows: 1. Sixteen eligible patients with ischemic heart disease were recruited, fully informed, and signed a consent form, and randomly divided into placebo control group (n=8) or hUC-MSCs treatment group (n=8); 2. Knee replacement was performed under general anesthesia in both groups. In the cell therapy group, 1×10^6/kg human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells were intravenously injected to the patient immediately after the surgery and at day 3 after the surgery. Before the operation, 6 hours, 3 days, 7days, 14 days, and 28 days after the MSCs injection, all patients receive a review of which main content includes symptom improvement, lung function improvement, and adverse events.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Signed informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Does not meet the above selection criteria
  • Unable to sign the informed consent
  • Patients with a malignant tumor, other serious systemic diseases, or psychosis
  • Pregnancy, lactation, and those who are not pregnant but do not take effective contraceptives measures
  • The patient with a history of an allergic reaction to biological products or drug
  • The patient has any infectious diseases (including bacterial and viral infections)
  • The patient with cardiac pacemaker implantation within 3 months prior to enrollment
  • The patient who had a stroke within 6 months prior to enrollment
  • Unable to comply with the agreed timetable of this study
  • Patients who are participating in other clinical trials
  • Others who are clinically considered unsuitable for this treatment.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
