Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (Cyto-MSC) are Well-tolerated and Associated with Renal Function Improvement in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease: An Observational Retrospective Study
Conclusion MethodologyThere were 4 clinical trials approved at the National University Malaysia in collaboration with Cytopeutics (Cyberjaya, Malaysia) which provided the mesenchymal stromal cells (Cyto-MSC) for treatment of acute stroke, heart failure, diabetes with critical limb ischemia and severe deforming osteoarthritis. All patients received 65-130 × 106 Cyto-MSC intravenously.
