Abstract
The therapeutic applicability of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) for a range of conditions has garnered increasing interest. This study aimed to evaluate the mean major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular event (MACCE)-free period in a population of 2,504 patients (age, 54.09 ± 11.65 years) receiving MSC therapy (mean dose, 1.49 ± 0.75 billion cells) for various indications (over two-thirds [n=1,700, 67.89%] received MSC therapy as an anti-ageing therapy) and evaluate for potential risk factors for MACCE development in this cohort. In multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis, age, but not sex and MSC dose, was significantly associated with MACCE risk (hazard ratio=1.127; 95% confidence interval=1.0418, 1.219; p=0.0029). The adverse event rate was 0.8%, and none of the reported adverse events were severe. In conclusion, our study showed that stem cell therapy was safe in a large cohort of individuals and was associated with a low rate of MACCE.
