Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is the safety and efficacy of autologous very small embryonic-like stem cells(VSELs) to organic erectile dysfunction, such as those associated with metabolic syndrome or the treatment of prostate cancer.

Description:

By enrolling patients with organic erectile dysfunction adapted to enrolled criteria, this study will document for the first time the safety and efficacy of underlying penile cellular damage.

The safety will be evaluated by tolerance degree. The efficacy will be evaluated validated scores and color duplex Doppler ultrasound.
