About this study

Official title: The Effect MSCs Derived From the Placenta and Their Secretome for the Treatment of GvHD: A Randomized Clinical Trial

In this clinical trial study, 60 patients with GvHD referred to Shahid Qazi Hospital in Tabriz, were randomly divided into 2 intervention and control groups (n= 30 in each) that received secretome and distilled water by injection, respectively. The method of blinding was triple-blinded and all the names and personal information of the patients were coded at the time of data collection and remained completely confidential.

Read the detailed description

This study is a safety, feasibility, and efficacy trial that was conducted on eligible GvHD patients with the diagnosis of expert doctors after obtaining permission from the respected ethics committee and registering the trial at the Iranian Trial Registration Center. During the phone call, while stating the title and objectives of the study, the entry and exclusion criteria were checked. If they are eligible, they were asked to attend the Ghazi Hospital if they wish to participate in the study. In the face-to-face meeting, the objectives of the research were fully explained and the study criteria were re-examined. The written informed consent was obtained and questionnaires fulfilled three times which include personal-social characteristics, medical characteristics, appetite questionnaire, 24-hour food record (Food record), and family members. At the beginning of the study, 50 cc of blood was used to collect serum and to culture and condition mesenchymal stem cells. 200 men with GvHD were randomly assigned using random block method using blocks of 4 and 6 and RAS (Random Allocation Software) and allocation ratio 1:1 to two groups receiving intravenous secretome with The first protocol (30 people) and receiving the mesenchymal stem cells secretome of the second protocol (30 people) were allocated and they received the skin spray for 1 year. Participants in the first protocol group at the beginning of the study, day 3, end of the week, the end of the second week, and the end of the month 5 times and in the second protocol group at the beginning of the study, skin spray were done. The secretome of both groups was the same.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Secretome (set of substances released from the cell to its surroundings) of mesenchymal stem cells retrieved from the placenta (containing 400 microgram protein/ milliliter) and 4 cc distilled water dissolved in albumin 20% in people with GVHD, run by Tabriz University of Medical Sciences at 1 site in Iran.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Jun 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Iran. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Liver involvement (time frame: At the beginning of the study and 6 weeks after the intervention). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Jun 2024.
