Umbilical Cord Blood-Derived Stem Cells for Chronic Lower Back Pain
This study is looking for adults aged 18-85 with chronic lower back pain (pain lasting at least 3 months) due to degenerative spine conditions like disc disease or facet joint arthritis. Researchers are testing an investigational treatment called Umbilical Cord Blood-Derived Stem Cells and Exosomes, given as an intravenous (IV) infusion. This treatment contains stem cells and other beneficial components from umbilical cord blood. The study aims to see if this infusion is safe, well-tolerated, and if it can reduce your pain and improve your physical function and quality of life. You would receive either the investigational infusion or a placebo (a saline solution that looks the same but has no active ingredients). The study is currently recruiting about 100 participants.
- Study design
- This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, single-blind crossover clinical trial involving approximately 100 participants. This means you would be randomly assigned to receive either the active treatment or a placebo, and you wouldn't know which one you received.
- What's involved
- Not specified in the trial record.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- The study measures changes in pain and functional disability from when you start until 3 months later.

What this trial measures
- Change in Average Low Back Pain Intensity From Baseline to Month 3Baseline to Month 3
Measured using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS-Average), a 0-10 scale assessing average low back pain intensity over the past week, with higher scores indicating greater pain severity.
- Change in Functional Disability From Baseline to Month 3Baseline to Month 3
Measured using the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), a validated questionnaire assessing disability related to low back pain, scored from 0-100%, with higher scores indicating greater disability.
