About this study

Rationale: Pre-clinical animal studies provide robust evidence regarding the beneficial effect of cord blood-derived mononuclear cells (MNCs) for experimental bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD).

This single-center, non-randomized, controlled, blinded trial assessed the effect of a single intravenous infusion of autologous cord blood MNCs (ACBMNCs) in preventing BPD in very preterm neonates, a high-risk population.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Autologous Umbilical Cord Blood Mononuclear Cells Therapy in people with Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia and Premature, run by Guangdong Women and Children Hospital at 1 site in China.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 2 Nov 2021. 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 China. 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. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

bronchopulmonary dysplasia at 36 weeks of postmenstrual age or the discharge home (time frame: 36 weeks of postmenstrual age or the discharge). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02999373, which also lists 12 linked publications.

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 2 Nov 2021.
