The Assist CLAD Study - Mesenchymal Stromal Cell Therapy in Chronic Lung Allograft Dysfunction

Purpose: Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) are immunosuppressive and immunoregulatory. Following phase 1 confirmation of feasibility and safety, the ASSIST CLAD study was a multi-centre, phase 2, double-blind, randomised controlled clinical trial of intravenous (IV) allogenic bone-marrow derived MSC in lung transplant recipients with new onset chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD).
