Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary objective of the first phase of the study is to assess the safety of intra-ovarian injection of human placenta derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cell (Destrosol), including evaluation of both early and late adverse effects. Timepoint: First 24 hours, first week and monthly up to 4 months after injection. Method of measurement: Sonographic evaluation to assess any potential ovarian lesions, including abscesses, hematomas, or cysts, up to 4 months after intra-ovarian injection of human placental mesenchymal stromal cell-derived (DestroCell) will be recorded at follow-up visits (first 24 hours and first week after each injection, and 1, 2, 3, and 4 months after the second injection).;The primary objective in phase two of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the treatment, assessing the level of change in serum follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). Timepoint: Baseline serum FSH level before injection, one week after each infusion, and also one, two, three, and four months after the second injection. Method of measurement: Blood samples will be analyzed at the specialized Royan Institute Research Laboratory.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Menstruation recurrence rate. Timepoint: One, two, three, four months after the intraovarian injection. Method of measurement: Through regular monthly follow-ups and consultations with a physician.;Assessment of ovarian volume. Timepoint: Initial check before injection and monthly checks up to four months after the after the intraovarian injection. Method of measurement: Through a Doppler vaginal ultrasound examination performed by a collaborating radiologist in the project.;Serum levels of luteinizing hormone (LH) and estradiol. Timepoint: Assessing baseline serum levels of luteinizing hormone (LH) and estradiol before injection, one week after each injection, and also one, two, three, and four months after the injection. Method of measurement: Blood samples will be analyzed at the specialized Royan Institute Research Laboratory.;Serum anti-Müllerian hormone level assessment. Timepoint: Monitoring basal serum anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels before injection, two and four months after the injection. Method of measurement: Blood samples will be analyzed at the specialized Royan Institute Research Laboratory.
