hUC-MSC-Exosomes for T2DM - Safety & Efficacy (HOPE-T2DM)

3 luglio 2026 aggiornato da: Peking University First Hospital

An Exploratory Clinical Study Assessing the Safety and Preliminary Efficacy of Human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cell-Derived Exosomes in the Treatment of Adult Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

The goal of this clinical trial is to Evaluate the Safety and Preliminary Efficacy of Human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cell-Derived Exosomes in the Treatment of Adult Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Panoramica dello studio

Descrizione dettagliata

A two-stage, progressive mixed design will be adopted to balance ethical considerations and scientific rigor.

Stage 1 (Open-Label, Before-and-After Study) will employ a sequential, open-label dose-escalation design:

A total of 18 patients will be enrolled, all receiving a 2-month course (once weekly, 8 doses total) of intravenous exosome infusion therapy. This study uses a sequential dose-escalation design with three dose cohorts: low-dose (1×10¹¹ particles), medium-dose (3×10¹¹ particles), and high-dose (9×10¹¹ particles). Dose escalation will strictly adhere to the following procedure:

Sequential Progression: The study for the next dose cohort can only commence after all subjects in the previous dose cohort have completed the required safety observation period (i.e., the 5-week follow-up post-last dose) and the safety data has been reviewed.

Stage 2 (Randomized, Double-Blind, Active-Comparator Parallel Study):

Provided no major safety issues are identified in the first stage, the second stage will commence. This stage plans to enroll 48 patients, randomized 2:1 to either the exosome treatment group (n=32) or the active-comparator control group (n=16).

Follow-up Plan: Multiple visits are scheduled, including a baseline period, treatment period (after each dose), end of treatment (Week 8/Month 2), and post-treatment follow-up periods (Week 12, Month 3, Month 6, Month 12), to systematically evaluate efficacy and safety.
