- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The efficacy of treatment for refractory acute graft versus host disease. Timepoint: 1, 4, 7, 14, 21, 28 days and 6 months after end of treatment. Method of measurement: The response criteria include complete response, part response, stable disease and progressive disease. complete response: acute graft versus host disease symptoms and signs disappear; part response: acute graft versus host disease symptoms and signs improve; stable disease: acute graft versus host disease symptoms and signs remain (without improvement or deterioration); progressive disease: acute graft versus host disease symptoms and signs deteriorate.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Acute toxic side effects of mesenchymal stem cells treatment. Timepoint: 1, 4, 7, 14, 21, 28 days after end of the treatment. Method of measurement: To asses acute toxicity principally involves the heart, liver and kidney and possible infections by clinical presentation and paraclinical evaluations.;Late toxic side effects of mesenchymal stem cells treatment. Timepoint: 6 months after end of the treatment. Method of measurement: To asses late toxic side effects involves principally the development of secondary tumors, relapse of the primary disease and chronic graft versus host disease during 6 months of study by clinical presentation and paraclinical evaluations.
