Study the effect of intravenous injection of dental pulp mesenchymal stem cells in treatment of patients with COVID-19 pneumonia- A Phase 2&3 Clinical Trial

Protocol summary

Study aim
Investigation the effect of intravenous injection of dental pulp mesenchymal stem cells in treatment of patients with COVID-19 pneumonia- A Phase 2&3 Clinical Trial
Design
Clinical trial with control group, with parallel groups, without blinding, randomized, phase 3 and 2 on 120 patients. A simple randomization method is used for randomization.
Settings and conduct
This study is performed in the field of infectious diseases. It is located in Afzalipour Hospital and the Comprehensive Center for Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine of Kerman University of Medical Sciences. In this study, 2 groups are intervened. Both groups receive conventional therapies. In addition, in the first group, patients have oxygen masks and receive stem cells, and in the second group, patients receive intubation and receive mesenchymal stem cells.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Patients aged between 18-95 years Patients Approved for Covirus 19 by Laboratory Methods Patients with mild to moderate respiratory distress Hospitalization in the ICU Exclusion criteria: Patients undergoing other clinical trials Patients with underlying diseases including diabetes, heart disease, respiratory disease, cancer patients and patients undergoing chemotherapy
Intervention groups
Two groups of patients are involved in this study. The first group uses an oxygen mask. The second group is patients admitted to the ICU who are intubated. Both groups receive mesenchymal stem cells in addition to conventional therapies. In addition to these two intervention groups, there are two control groups, the first group receiving only oxygen masks and conventional therapies, and the second group of patients admitted to the ICU receiving only conventional therapies.
Main outcome variables
Pulmonary condition, RNA expression of COVID19 virus, Lymphocytes count, Study of clinical signs

Intervention groups

1

Description
Intervention group: The extracted tooth is brought to the laboratory. After separating the tooth pulp, it is digested enzymatically and cultured. Once the cells have reached a sufficient level, 40 million cells are injected intravenously into the patient at a time. These patients are patients admitted to the ICU who use an oxygen mask and receive stem cells upon arrival at the ICU in addition to routine treatments.
