MSC for Treatment of Interstitial Lung Disease After Allo-HSCT
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is the late pulmonary complications after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) leading to high morbidity and mortality. At present, the treatment for ILD after allo-HSCT remains in discussion. In this study, the efficacy of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) combined azithromycin as well as glucocorticoid as the treatment of ILD will be evaluated in the recipients of allo-HSCT.

Detailed Description
ILD is a group of diseases involving pulmonary interstitial, alveolar and (or) bronchioles. In the patients receiving allo-HSCT, ILD mainly present as bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS). ILD after HSCT is characterized by non-responsiveness to treatment, leading to high morbidity and mortality. MSC has been considered as an effective treatment for refractory acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD), but the response to treat chronic GVHD (cGVHD), especially refractory BOS, is rarely reported.
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: MSCs MSCs will be given the patients in MSCs group. Besides, azithromycin (AZM) and glucocorticoid will also be administered. |
Biological: MSCs
MSCs will be given at a median dose of 1×10^6 cells/kg once weekly for 4 weeks as one cycle treatment.
Drug: AZM
AZM will be given (0.25g qd)for 4 weeks as one cycle treatment.
Drug: Glucocorticoid
Glucocorticoid (prednison) will be given at the starting dose of 1mg/kg for 4 weeks as one cycle treatment.
|
Active Comparator: Non-MSCs AZM and glucocorticoid will be given for the patients in Non-MSCs group. |
Drug: AZM
AZM will be given (0.25g qd)for 4 weeks as one cycle treatment.
Drug: Glucocorticoid
Glucocorticoid (prednison) will be given at the starting dose of 1mg/kg for 4 weeks as one cycle treatment.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Response rate of ILD [4 weeks]
Response includes complete response (CR) and partial response (PR). CR is defined as resolution of all manifestations related to ILD, except for some irreversible changes. PR is defined as sustained, measurable improvement in pulmonary function tests(carbon monoxide lung diffusion capacity, forced expiratory volume, or both) or the ability to reduce corticosteroids by at least 50% or both without deterioration of pulmonary function.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Overall Survival [3 year]
The 3-year overall survival after HSCT will be evaluated
