Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia | Drug: Human Umbilical Cord-derived Mesenchymal stem cell Drug: placebo | Phase 1 Phase 2 |
Brochopulmonary dysplasia is a severe chronic lung disease in extremely preterm infants. The morbidity of BPD is increasing in CHINA. The preventive and therapy methods of BPD are still lacking.
Umbilical Cord-derived Mesenchymal stem cell has been proven effective in the experimental bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). A multi-center study was designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the cellular therapy in extremely preterm infants at high risk for BPD.
