Summary

Sexual functional deficiency affects largely the physical conditions, life and sexual quality of the patients. Hypogonadism affects about 4 to 5 million men in the US, and the incidence increases with age. In our recent phase I clinical trial, we have shown that intravenous adipose - derived MSC administration was safe in female and male patients with hormone deficiency. Post-transplantation sexual satisfaction was observed in all patients enrolled in this study. Testosterone levels in males increased significantly after transplantation and were maintained at high levels for up to 6 months before decreasing again at the 12-month follow-up. The aim of this clinical trial was to assess the safety and effectiveness of allogeneic administration of MSCs in middle-aged people with sexual functional deficiency.

Umbilical Cord-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell for Male Patients with Sexual Deficiency

Patients will receive two administrations at a dose of 1.5 million cells/kg patient bodyweight via the IV route with a 3-month intervening interval. A validated umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSC) line was selected from the Vinmec Tissue Bank and cultured under xeno-free, serum-free and antibiotic-free conditions as previously described. To prepare UC-MSCs for therapy, aliquots of Passage 3 (P3) UC-MSCs will be thawed and cultured to P5 to get approximately 500 million cells and dispensed to 10 million UC-MSCs/ml/vial for cryopreservation. Upon request from the clinical team, aliquots of P5 UC-MSCs will be thawed in a temperature control water bath or incubator on the infusion day. The UC-MSCs will be washed and suspended in Ringer Lactate.
