human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells for decompensated cirrhosis (msc-dlc-1b)

Conditions: Decompensated Cirrhosis

Summary: this clinical trial is a phase 1, multiple administration, dose-escalasion clinical trial of human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells for the treatment of decompensated cirrhosis. the primary objective of this study is to assess the safety of intravenous infusion of human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells in patients with decompensated cirrhosis.

decompensated cirrhosis has a high overall mortality rate. there is unmet need for safe and alternative therapeutic potions. this clinical trial is a phase 1, multiple administration, dose-escalasion clinical trial of human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells for the treatment of decompensated cirrhosis. the primary objective of this study is to assess the safety of intravenous infusion of human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells in patients with decompensated cirrhosis.in order to illustrate the safety and effectiveness of human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells and the patient's dose tolerance to human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells.

Eligibility criteria:
