Clinical Trials for Exosomes of Various Stem Cell Sources.

Condition Treated Phase Patient Group Type of MSC-Exos Dosage Administration Method Main Outcomes Trial Reference
CKD Stage 3 and 4 Phase II/III Stage 3 and 4 CKD patients HUCMSC-Exos 100 mcg/kg weekly for two weeks Intravenous and intra-arterial Improvement in glomerular filtration rate, reduction in blood creatinine and urea levels [208]
Skin hyperpigmentation Not specified Individuals with hyperpigmentation ADSC-Exos 0.2 g of ADSC-exos twice a day for 8 weeks Local Short-term improvement in hyperpigmentation through reduction in melanin; however, followed by relapses [207]
AIS Phase I/II AIS patients miR-124-transfected MSC-Exos Not specified Intraparenchymal or stereotaxis Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events and improvement based on the modified Rankin Scale; evaluation of AIS patient disability. [210]
Mild-to-moderate Alzheimer’s, dementia Phase I/II Patients with mild-to-moderate Alzheimer’s based on NIA/Aa Adipose Tissue-Derived Exosomes Low dose (5 mcg); Medium dose (10 mcg); High dose (20 mcg) twice a week Nasal drip Number of participants with abnormal laboratory values and adverse events by CTCAE v4.0 at 12 weeks. Cognitive function, quality of life evaluation, MRI neuroimaging, PET-CT neuroimaging, and changes in AD biomarkers are secondary outcomes. [211,212]
COVID-19 Phase I PCR-confirmed COVID-19 patients MSC-exos 5 inhalation doses over 5 days Inhalation Adverse reaction and severe adverse reaction up to 28 days. [207,213]
