What the procedure involves.
Mesenchymal stem cell therapy targeting chronic lung diseases including COPD, pulmonary fibrosis, and post-COVID lung damage. Chinese research institutions have conducted multiple clinical trials demonstrating the anti-inflammatory and regenerative potential of MSCs in lung tissue. Treatment involves IV infusion of stem cells that home to damaged lung tissue, reducing inflammation and potentially promoting tissue repair.
Step by step.
Pulmonary Assessment
Complete lung function testing (spirometry, DLCO), CT imaging, 6-minute walk test, and blood gas analysis to establish baseline
Cell Preparation
Screening and preparation of allogeneic umbilical cord MSCs or autologous bone marrow MSCs meeting release criteria
IV Stem Cell Infusion
Controlled intravenous infusion of stem cells over 1-2 hours with vital sign monitoring; typically 2-3 infusions per cycle
Pulmonary Rehabilitation
Breathing exercises, chest physiotherapy, and oxygen optimization alongside follow-up lung function testing
- Anti-inflammatory properties of MSCs may slow disease progression
- Non-invasive IV delivery with minimal procedural risk
- Multiple Chinese clinical trials show promising safety data
- Combined with pulmonary rehab for comprehensive lung improvement
- Efficacy not yet proven in large randomized controlled trials
- Temporary fever or fatigue after cell infusion
- Does not reverse established structural lung damage
- Multiple treatment cycles may be needed for sustained benefit
