What the trial record shows

INVIMA approved Colombia's first clinical trial of mesenchymal stem cells in September 2020: umbilical cord cells for patients with COVID-19 in intensive care, run by BioXcellerator in Medellín with Clínica Somer in Rionegro.[3] The trial was registered, enrolled six patients and was stopped early.[4]

Other registered studies in Colombia come from research hospitals, such as umbilical cord cells in heart surgery at Hospital San Vicente Fundación.[5]
