Effects of UCA-PSCs in Women With POF

Clinical Study of Human Umbilical Artery Derived Perivascular Stem Cells in the Treatment of Premature Ovarian Failure

This study was a single-center randomized controlled trial at the Affiliated Drum Tower Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School. There were patients who underwent clinical follow-ups since 2018 in POF clinic. Patients were given treatment of either UCA-PSC or WJ-MSC.

According to blinded preferences for participation, patients were randomized into two treatment groups after an initial 2-month washout period of no therapy. One group received UCA-PSC transplantation plus horone replacement treatment (HRT) (UCA-PSC group), while the other group received WJ-MSC transplantation plus HRT (collagen/WJ-MSC group)
