Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is the safety and efficacy of autologous very small embryonic-like stem cells(VSELs) to organic erectile dysfunction, such as those associated with metabolic syndrome or the treatment of prostate cancer.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

By enrolling patients with organic erectile dysfunction adapted to enrolled criteria, this study will document for the first time the safety and efficacy of underlying penile cellular damage.

The safety will be evaluated by tolerance degree. The efficacy will be evaluated validated scores and color duplex Doppler ultrasound.

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

In this group, the patients will receive intracavernous injection of autologous VSELs. The check indexes are International Index of Erectile Function 5(IIEF-5), Erection Hardness Score(EHS) and penile vascularization assessed using color duplex Doppler ultrasound (CDDU), mainly including erectile function, stretched penile length, sexual drive, intercourse satisfaction, and overall satisfaction.
Primary Study Purpose

TREATMENT

Blinding Strategy

SINGLE

Investigators
Different patients receive different numbers of cell for treatment per time

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

VSEL Max

Each treatment: 120,000 VSELs each time, suspending with 20 mL platelet-rich plasma(PRP), transfusion for 3 times with a interval of 1 month, intracavernous injection

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Very small embryonic-like stem cell(VSEL)

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

Mononuclear cells were collected from peripheral blood of each patient using a machine, VSELs were isolated, and each group was injected according to different numbers after activation

VSEL Medium

Each treatment: 90,000 VSELs each time, suspending with 20 mL platelet-rich plasma(PRP), transfusion for 3 times with a interval of 1 month, intracavernous injection

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Very small embryonic-like stem cell(VSEL)

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

Mononuclear cells were collected from peripheral blood of each patient using a machine, VSELs were isolated, and each group was injected according to different numbers after activation

VSEL Mini

Each treatment: 60,000 VSELs each time, suspending with 20 mL platelet-rich plasma(PRP), transfusion for 3 times with a interval of 1 month, intracavernous injection

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Very small embryonic-like stem cell(VSEL)

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

Mononuclear cells were collected from peripheral blood of each patient using a machine, VSELs were isolated, and each group was injected according to different numbers after activation

Control

In this group, the patients will receive 20 mL platelet-rich plasma(PRP) treatment and as a control group.
