Efficacy and Safety of AD-MSCs Plus Calpocitriol Ointment in Patients With Moderate to Severe Psoriasis
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Adipose derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (AD-MSCs) plus Calpocitriol Ointment with moderate to severe psoriasis. Any adverse events related to AD-MSCs infusion will be monitored.The primary outcome is the reduction rate of PASI(Psoriasis Area and Severity Index) and treatment response will be computed from PASI before and after treatment.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Improvement rate of PASI(Psoriasis Area and Severity Index) [12 weeks (plus or minus 3 days) after treatment]
The proportion of the improvement of PASI(Psoriasis Area and Severity Index) from baseline
Secondary Outcome Measures
- PASI(Psoriasis Area and Severity Index) [12 weeks (plus or minus 3 days) after treatment]
The improvement in PASI score from baseline after treatment
- Relapse rate in treatment period / follow-up period [During the treatment period of 12 weeks / follow-up period of 12 weeks after treatment period]
Relapse can be defined only for patients who achieve PASI50,and occurs when the improvement in the PASI score falls below 50% from the baseline PASI score.
- PASI-50 [12 weeks (plus or minus 3 days) after treatment]
The proportion of patients who achieve at least 50% improvement in PASI score from baseline
- PASI-75 [12 weeks (plus or minus 3 days) after treatment]
The proportion of patients who achieve at least 75% improvement in PASI score from baseline
- Pruritus Scores on the Visual Analogue Scale [12 weeks (plus or minus 3 days) after treatment]
Pruritus was assessed using the Visual Analogue Scales; The Scale scores ranged from 0-10. The higer the scores were, the more itching the patient suffered.
- BSA [12 weeks (plus or minus 3 days) after treatment]
the Body Surface Area
- DLQI(Dermatology Life Quality Index) [12 weeks (plus or minus 3 days) after treatment]
the Dermatology Life Quality Index
