Human placental mesenchymal stromal cell-derived small extracellular vesicles as a treatment for severe COVID-19: A double-blind randomized controlled clinical trial.

The current study aimed to investigate the effects of human placental mesenchymal stromal cell-derived small extracellular vesicles (hPMSC-sEVs) as a treatment for COVID-19. This double-blind, randomized, controlled clinical trial was conducted on two groups of patients with COVID-19-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome. After randomization, the control group received standard treatment and placebo, and the intervention arm received standard treatment plus hPMSC-sEVs.

Improvement in the clinical manifestations of interstitial lung disease following treatment with placental mesenchymal stromal cell extracellular vesicles in a patient with systemic sclerosis: A case report.

Background: Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a severe systemic sclerosis (SSc) complication with no current approved or golden standard treatment. This report aims to investigate the effectiveness of treatment with placental mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) extracellular vesicles (EVs) in a patient with ILD due to SSc.

Case Presentation: The patient was a 55-year-old woman with a ten years history of SSc complicated by severe ILD.
