Type 2 Diabetes Mesenchymal Stem Cells | Biological: Umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells Biological: Controlled suspension liquid | Phase 2 |
Study Type : | Interventional (Clinical Trial) |
Actual Enrollment : | 103 participants |
Allocation: | Randomized |
Intervention Model: | Parallel Assignment |
Intervention Model Description: | UC-MSCs (1.5×106/kg) or the same volume of placebo (suspension liquid without UC-MSCs) |
Masking: | Quadruple (Participant, Care Provider, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor) |
Masking Description: | All investigators and participants were masked to treatment allocation. The independent data monitoring committee and the statisticians supporting the committee's activities were the only people with access to unblinded data. |
Primary Purpose: | Treatment |
Official Title: | Efficacy and Safety of Umbilical-cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Chinese Adults With Type 2 Diabetes: a Single Center, Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled Trial |

- 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
- 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%)
- 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
- 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.
