Protocol summary

Study aim
Determination of the Safety and efficacy of injection of adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal exosomes for skin lesions in patients with chronic plaque psoriasis
Design
parallel group, 12 patient, Phase I ,clinical trial
Settings and conduct
This study is performed on psoriasis patients. In the first phase of this study, 3 groups of 4 patients were selected. For these groups, 50, 100 and 200 micrograms per milliliter per square centimeter of skin lesion are injected, respectively. Also a lesion at the injection site with the same sensitivity and severity as the control. At a 3-month follow-up, the best dose is selected for best efficacy and minimal side effects.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 12 patients over 18 years, 6 months of history, PASI index 3 to10, low to moderate lesion severity (1 to 3), non-response to standard treatment, no lesion, or increase in the last 6 months. Exclusion Criteria: Other types of disease including pustular, erythrodermic, Use of immunosuppressive drugs in the past 2 weeks and topical drugs except for emollients in the past 2 weeks Severe underlying disease, increase in liver enzymes more than 3 times normal and creatinine more than 2, high and uncontrolled hypertension, pregnant or lactating women, Patients with diabetes, patients with hepatitis B, C or HIV, immunocompromised patients, malignant patients, debilitating disease, systemic infection or injection site
Intervention groups
Group 1 includes patients with psoriasis who receive a stem cell-derived exosome at a dose of 50 micrograms. Group 2 includes patients with psoriasis who receive a stem cell-derived exosome at a dose of 100 micrograms. Group 3 includes patients with psoriasis who receive a stem cell-derived exosome at a dose of 200 micrograms.
Main outcome variables
Side effects, severity of plaque, PASI measures, inflammatory cytokines

Intervention groups

1

Description
Intervention First group: Single intra-dermal injection of 50 μg of exosomes derived from adipose tissue mesenchymal cells per cm2 of plaque into 0.5 ml of normal saline and follow up to 3 months after injection. Also, in the same area of ​​the lesion where the injection is performed, a lesion with the same sensitivity and severity is considered as a control. The Cells cultured in a cleanroom at the Skin and Stem Cell Research Center, Tehran University of Medical Sciences and, the exosomes are isolated using an ultracentrifuge

2

Description
Intervention second group: Single intra-dermal injection of 100 μg of exosomes derived from adipose tissue mesenchymal cells per cm2 of plaque into 0.5 ml of normal saline and follow up to 3 months after injection. Also, in the same area of ​​the lesion where the injection is performed, a lesion with the same sensitivity and severity is considered as a control. The Cells cultured in a cleanroom at the Skin and Stem Cell Research Center, Tehran University of Medical Sciences and, the exosomes are isolated using an ultracentrifuge
