研究概览
简要总结
It will be a Single-arm, single-center, feasibility clinical trial with Primary Objective to investigate the treatment efficacy of PRP-derived exosomes injection in men with mild-moderate vasculogenic ED, as measured by the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF). Also secondary objectives will be to study the adverse events and safety of the PRP-derived exosomes injection treatment in vasculogenic ED patients Study Centers The study will be carried out at Saint Lucas Hospital, Thessaloniki, Greece. Laboratory tests of all patients will be performed at the hospital's microbiology laboratory. PRP-derived exosomes preparation and application will take place at the Regenerative Clinic.

研究组 & 干预措施
Study Arm
All patients will be regular PDE5I users/responders. After one one-month washout period, ED patients will be screened by the IIEF-EF domain, and 30 eligible patients will be enrolled. subjects will receive three sessions of PRP-derived exosomes injection with 21± 3 days treatment interval.
干预措施: PRP-derived exosomes injection (Biological)
结局指标
主要结局
The % of patients in each group who attain Minimal Clinically Important Difference (MCID) in the International Index for Erectile Function- Erectile Function (IIEF-EF) domain
时间窗: From baseline to 12 weeks after final treatment
The IIEF classifies the severity of ED into five categories stratified by score: No ED: 26-30, Mild ED: 22-25, Mild to moderate ED: 17-21, Moderate ED: 11-16 and Severe ED: 6-10. MCID values for the IIEF-EF (Erectile Function) domain are 2-point increase for mild ED, a 5-point increase for moderate ED and a 7-point increase for severe ED In IIEF-EF score higher values mean better outcome
次要结局
- The % of patients who attain Minimal Clinically Important Difference(MCID) in the International Index for Erectile Function- Erectile Function (IIEF-EF) domain .(From baseline to 4 weeks after final treatment)
- The change of the International Index for Erectile Function- Erectile Function (IIEF-EF) domain from baseline to 12 weeks after final treatment.(From baseline to 12 weeks after final treatment.)
- Adverse events in all patients(Periprocedural)
