The aim of this study is the safety and efficacy of autologous very small embryonic-like stem cells(VSELs) to knee osteoarthritis.
VSELs come from the patient's peripheral blood, and will be injected in the most painful knee, or the worse knee on physical examination. Then follow-up the knee pain and imaging changes at 6 months and 1 year after treatment.

Biological very small embryonic-like stem cell

Mononuclear cells were collected from peripheral blood of each patient using a machine, VSELs were isolated, and each group was injected according to different numbers after activation

  • Other names: VSEL

VSEL Max Experimental

A mean volume of 5.5 mL platelet-rich plasma containing approximately 120,000 cells were prepared and injected into the selected knee of the patient

VSEL Medium Experimental

A mean volume of 5.5 mL platelet-rich plasma containing approximately 90,000 cells were prepared and injected into the selected knee of the patient

VSEL Mini Experimental

A mean volume of 5.5 mL platelet-rich plasma containing approximately 60,000 cells were prepared and injected into the selected knee of the patient

Control No Intervention

A mean volume of 5.5 mL platelet-rich plasma containing no VSELs injected into the selected knee of the patient
