Brief Summary:
Umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells indicate the therapeutic effects and safety on type 2 diabetes by characteristics of secretion and immune Immunomodulation.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Type 2 Diabetes Mesenchymal Stem Cells Biological: Umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells Biological: Controlled suspension liquid Phase 2

Detailed Description:
Umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells can improve insulin resistance of the target tissues, reduce the islet progressive damage, ease or regenerate of the islet beta cells and improve hyperglycemic state of diabetes by secreting a variety of cytokines. It can induce damaged alpha cells differentiate into beta cells in the islet transformation to realize the islet beta cells in situ regeneration by improving microenvironment of islet beta cells. Umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells also have immunosuppressive effect, it can promote islet cell repair and regeneration by the inhibition of T cell mediated immune response to beta cells.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. The efficacy of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells in Chinese adults with T2D [ Time Frame: 48 weeks from baseline ]
    proportion of patients with HbA1c <7.0% and daily insulin reduction ≥50% from baseline to 48 weeks


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Other efficacy parameter of umbilical-cord mesenchymal stem cells in Chinese adults with T2D [ Time Frame: 48 weeks from baseline ]
    Changes of insulin requirement, HbA1c and proportion of patients reaching the HbA1c target (<7.0%)

  2. Other efficacy parameter of umbilical-cord mesenchymal stem cells in Chinese adults with T2D [ Time Frame: 48 weeks from baseline ]
    Change of islet β cell function and insulin resistance

  3. safety parameter of umbilical-cord mesenchymal stem cells in Chinese adults with T2D [ Time Frame: 48 weeks from baseline ]
    Fever, pruritus, nausea and vomiting, anaphylactic shock, phlebitis,tumor formation, infection, impaired liver and kidney function.
