Direct UC-MSC randomized knee-osteoarthritis evidence

Publicación y hallazgo principal

Intra-articular injection of umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells is safe and effective for moderate to severe knee osteoarthritis with synovitis: a double‑blinded and randomized controlled trial.

In a 55-participant double-blind randomized trial, UC-MSC injection produced significant six-month improvements in pain, function and synovitis among participants with knee osteoarthritis and synovitis; no serious treatment-related adverse events were reported.
