Efficacy and Safety of Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cell Therapy for Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients: A Prospective Phase I/II Study

This prospective Phase I/II study evaluated the long-term safety and efficacy of intravenous umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cell (UC-MSC) therapy combined with disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) in 64 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Patients received 2 × 10⁷ UC-MSCs via intravenous infusion and were followed for up to 3 years.

Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell therapy for patients with active rheumatoid arthritis: safety and efficacy

This 2013 clinical study evaluated the safety and efficacy of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) in treating active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) unresponsive to conventional therapies. Involving 172 patients, the study compared outcomes between those receiving disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) plus UC-MSCs and those receiving DMARDs alone. The UC-MSC
