Human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) Therapy in ARDS (ARDS)

August 31, 2019 updated by: Lv Haijin, Sun Yat-sen University

Human Umbilical Cord Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Therapy in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a devastating inflammatory and destructive disease in critical ill patients. Preclinical studies have shown a promising perspective of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) therapies in ARDS. But the safety and efficacy of umbilical cord MSCs (UCMSCs) have not yet been convinced in clinical trails. This study will explore the safety and life-rescue potential of UCMSCs in refracotry ARDS.

Detailed Description

This is a single arm study. According Berlin definition (2012), moderate or severe adult ARDS patients who fail to improve oxygenation (PaO2/FiO2 increase over 20%) in the first 24h or 8h after diagnosis will be enrolled. A salvage package of 10^6/kg suspended UCMSCs in 100ml normal saline or only 100ml normal saline will be infused through central venous catheter. Infusion associated events (IAEs) in 24 hours will be closely monitored. Compared with propensity score matched controls, mortality in 28 days as the primary outcomes. oxygenation index, ventilator parameters, lung injury biomarkers and clinical outcomes as secondary outcomes will be analyzed.

This is a revised trail from its previous registered pilot RCT, approved by Ethic Committe of Stem Cells Trails (ECSCT) of 3rd affiliated hospital of Sun Yat-Sen university

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: UCMSCs group
Intravenous infusion of 1million UCMSCs per kilogram body weight suspended in 100ml normal saline, infusion duration 30-60min.
Clinical grade human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (passage 3-5) suspension are provided by biotherapy center of the third affiliated hospital of Sun Yat Sen University. Cells are made of suspension packages (60million cells in 100ml normal saline per bag) and infused intravenously in 2 hours.
A bag of 100ml clinical grade normal saline are also provided by biotherapy center of the third affiliated hospital of Sun Yat Sen University.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Infusion associated events
Time Frame: From infusion beginning to the second day, 24 hours
Incidence of prescribed adverse events or unprescribed events agreed by investigators and consultant .
From infusion beginning to the second day, 24 hours
Mortality
Time Frame: In 60 days after enrolled
All cause mortality. Cause of death, exact survival status (death/survival) and time (days) will also be recorded
In 60 days after enrolled

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Ventilation free days(VFDs)
Time Frame: From the day of UCMSCs use(day 0) to day 28

The days without invasive ventilator support(at least 2 consecutive calendar days) in 28 days.

If the ventilator weaned multiple times, VFDs is the sum of the days without ventilator support.

If any of following occurring in 28 days, VFDs equals 0:

  1. The patient dies in 28 days;
  2. Ventilator never be weaned;
  3. Censored case with ventilator never being weaned.
From the day of UCMSCs use(day 0) to day 28
Oxygenation index(OI) changes
Time Frame: From day 0 to day 7, each day
The oxygenation index(OI)=partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood(PaO2) divide inspiration fraction of oxygen(FiO2). OI is measured at day0, day1,day3,day7.
From day 0 to day 7, each day
Lung injury score(LIS)
Time Frame: From day 0 to day 7, day0,1,3,7

Murray lung injury scores (LIS) consist of the following 4 parts:

A.Hypoxemia (PaO2/FiO2≥300, 225-299,175-224,100-174,<100, assigned 0,1,2,3,4 scores respectively); B.PEEP (cmH2O) (≤5,6-8,9-11,11-14,≥15, assigned 0,1,2,3,4 scores respectively) ; C.Compliance (ml/cmH2O)(≥80,60-79,40-59,20-39,≤19, assigned 0,1,2,3,4 scores respectively); D.Quadrants infiltrated in Chest X-Ray(CXR) (0,1,2,3,4, assigned 0,1,2,3,4 scores respectively).

The total LIS score is obtained by dividing the total sum of points by the number of criteria present. For example, if only 3 criteria are answered to, the total sum is divided by 3 to reveal the final score.

The LIS score ranges between 0 and 4, with scores closer to 4 indicating severe acute lung injury.

From day 0 to day 7, day0,1,3,7

Driving pressure
Time Frame: From day 0 to day 7, each day

From day 0 to day 7, each day
Static compliance
Time Frame: From day 0 to day 7, each day

Calculate the static compliance by the following formula:

static compliance=tidal volume/(Pplat-PEEP), unit-ml/cmH2O
