Treatments tested in this trial
IMM01-STEM
DrugIMM01-STEM is a secretome product derived from partially differentiated pluripotent stem cells that contains regenerative molecules.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Safety of IMMUNA(IMM01-STEM) treatment in study participants with muscle atrophy related to KOA
Determined by the incidence and severity of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) and the incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs). Adverse events (AE) are classified based on Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) as follows: Grade 0 = no adverse events, Grade 1= mild, Grade 2 = moderate, Grade 3 = severe, Grade 4 = life threatening and Grade 5 = fatal adverse events. A DLT is defined as any AE related to IMM01-STEM of a Grade 2 unresolved within 48 hours post-injection, or any Grade 3, 4, or 5 related to IMM01-STEM during any time of treatment or during the 48-hour, acute/subacute observation period.
Secondary outcomes
Safety and tolerability of IMMUNA(IMM01-STEM) after 4 weeks of treatment in study participants with muscle atrophy related to KOA
Determined by incidence, type and severity of adverse events graded according to CTCAE v5.0 and CRS revised grading system and defined by clinical relevant findings at day 28 post-treatment, or worsening of previous findings from baseline at day 28 post treatment in: self-reporting, physical examination, vital signs (body temperature, body weight, blood pressure, and heart rate), laboratory data (hematology, clinical chemistry, and urinalysis).
Functionality of the knee joint after 4 weeks of treatment with IMMUNA(IMM01-STEM) in study participants with muscle atrophy related to KOA
Determined by evaluation of participants with changes from baseline at day 28 post treatment in: muscle strength (measured by isometric knee extensor torque), physical function (measured by the 6-minute walk test), Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis (WOMAC) Index
