Safety and Tolerability of Intra-Articular Injection of Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells GXCPC1 in 11 Subjects With Knee Osteoarthritis: A Nonrandomized Pilot Study Without a Control Arm.

ABSTRACT: The current study aimed to determine the safety profile of intra-articular-injected allogeneic adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) GXCPC1 in subjects with knee osteoarthritis (OA) and its preliminary efficacy outcome. The 3 + 3 phase I study was designed with two dose-escalation cohorts: low dose (6.7 × 10⁶ GXCPC1, N = 5) and high dose (4 × 10⁷ GXCPC1, N = 6). The primary endpoint was safety, which was evaluated by recording adverse events throughout the trial; the secondary endpoints included total, pain, stiffness, and function subscales of the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pain, and 12-Item Short Form (SF-12) health survey questionnaire. The GXCPC1 treatment was found to b
