Clinical Trial Summary

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a devastating inflammatory and destructive disease in critical ill patients. Preclinical studies have shown a promising perspective of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) therapies in ARDS. But the safety and efficacy of umbilical cord MSCs (UCMSCs) have not yet been convinced in clinical trails. This study will explore the safety and life-rescue potential of UCMSCs in refracotry ARDS.

Description:

This is a single arm study. According Berlin definition (2012), moderate or severe adult ARDS patients who fail to improve oxygenation (PaO2/FiO2 increase over 20%) in the first 24h or 8h after diagnosis will be enrolled. A salvage package of 10^6/kg suspended UCMSCs in 100ml normal saline or only 100ml normal saline will be infused through central venous catheter. Infusion associated events (IAEs) in 24 hours will be closely monitored. Compared with propensity score matched controls, mortality in 28 days as the primary outcomes. oxygenation index, ventilator parameters, lung injury biomarkers and clinical outcomes as secondary outcomes will be analyzed.

This is a revised trail from its previous registered pilot RCT, approved by Ethic Committe of Stem Cells Trails (ECSCT) of 3rd affiliated hospital of Sun Yat-Sen university

Other	Endothelial injury biomarker-Ang2	Detect the angiopoietin (Ang2) level in plasma, unit-pg/ml	From day 0 to day 7, day0, 1,3,7
Other	Tumor necrosis factor a(TNFa)	Detect the TNFa in plasma and in BALF, unit-pg/ml	From day 0 to day 7, day0, 1,3,7
Other	Interleukin 8(IL8)	Detect the IL8 in plasma and in BALF, unit-pg/ml	From day 0 to day 7, day0, 1,3,7
Other	Interleukin 6(IL6)	Detect the IL6 in plasma and in BALF, unit-pg/ml	From day 0 to day 7, day0, 1,3,7
Primary	Infusion associated events	Incidence of prescribed adverse events or unprescribed events agreed by investigators and consultant .	From infusion beginning to the second day, 24 hours
Primary	Mortality	All cause mortality. Cause of death, exact survival status (death/survival) and time (days) will also be recorded	In 60 days after enrolled
Secondary	Ventilation free days(VFDs)	The days without invasive ventilator support(at least 2 consecutive calendar days) in 28 days.; If the ventilator weaned multiple times, VFDs is the sum of the days without ventilator support.; If any of following occurring in 28 days, VFDs equals 0: The patient dies in 28 days; Ventilator never be weaned; Censored case with ventilator never being weaned.	From the day of UCMSCs use(day 0) to day 28
Secondary	Oxygenation index(OI) changes	The oxygenation index(OI)=partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood(PaO2) divide inspiration fraction of oxygen(FiO2). OI is measured at day0, day1,day3,day7.	From day 0 to day 7, each day
Secondary	Lung injury score(LIS)	Murray lung injury scores (LIS) consist of the following 4 parts: A.Hypoxemia (PaO2/FiO2=300, 225-299,175-224,100-174,<100, assigned 0,1,2,3,4 scores respectively); B.PEEP (cmH2O) (=5,6-8,9-11,11-14,=15, assigned 0,1,2,3,4 scores respectively) ; C.Compliance (ml/cmH2O)(=80,60-79,40-59,20-39,=19, assigned 0,1,2,3,4 scores respectively); D.Quadrants infiltrated in Chest X-Ray(CXR) (0,1,2,3,4, assigned 0,1,2,3,4 scores respectively).; The total LIS score is obtained by dividing the total sum of points by the number of criteria present. For example, if only 3 criteria are answered to, the total sum is divided by 3 to reveal the final score.; The LIS score ranges between 0 and 4, with scores closer to 4 indicating severe acute lung injury.	From day 0 to day 7, day0,1,3,7
Secondary	Positive end expiratory pressure(PEEP)	Monitored by ventilator and recorded per hour, obtain the average value of the day. unit-cmH20	From day 0 to day 7, each day
Secondary	Plateau pressure(Pplat)	Monitored by ventilator in one inspiration pause, measured 4 times a day. Record the average value of the day. unit-cmH20	From day 0 to day 7, each day
Secondary	Driving pressure	Calculate the driving pressure by Pplat minus PEEP, measured 4 times a day. Record the average value of the day. unit-cmH20	From day 0 to day 7, each day
Secondary	Static compliance	Calculate the static compliance by the following formula: static compliance=tidal volume/(Pplat-PEEP), unit-ml/cmH2O	From day 0 to day 7, each day
