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 to verify the efficacy of in vitro induction of autologous decidual-like NK cells therapy for reproductive failure associated with uterine NK cells abnormalities.

Detailed Description

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

Participants with reproductive failure and reproductive intentions will be recruited and screened. After obtaining their informed consent, menstrual blood analysis will be performed. Participants with menstrual blood NK cell abnormalities will be randomly assigned to either the NK cell perfusion group or control group in a ratio of 2:1. After completing two rounds of NK cell therapy, the NK cell perfusion group will enter the follow-up period, while the control group will not receive interventions after randomization and enter the follow-up period directly. The following information will be recorded for all participants who undergo menstrual blood NK cell analysis, including menstrual blood analysis results, attempts to conceive, and pregnancy outcomes during the follow-up period.
