A Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Dose-Escalation Study to Assess the Safety and Tolerability of a Single Intravenous Infusion of Allogeneic Mesenchymal Precursor Cells (MPCs) in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Sub-optimally Controlled on Metformin
Abstract
This study is being conducted to assess the overall safety and tolerability of a single intravenous infusion of three doses of Mesenchymal Precursor Cells versus Placebo in subjects with Type 2 Diabetes inadequately controlled on Metformin.
Conditions: Type 2 Diabetes.
Primary outcome: Primary objective of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of MPC therapy.
Enrollment: 61 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 61 participants or records.
