Brief summary
This is an open-label randomized controlled trial with a pre-and-post-test control group design to evaluate the effect of Mesenchymal Stromal/Stem Cells-Derived Exosomes (MSC-Exos) as an adjunctive therapy on glycemic control and clinical outcomes in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). The study aims to determine if the addition of exosome therapy to standard care can improve glycemic parameters (fasting blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial glucose, HbA1c, and C-peptide), quality of life, and inflammatory biomarkers (IL-6, IL-10, D-dimer, and CRP). The study will involve 50 subjects, randomly allocated into two groups: an intervention group and a control group. The intervention group will receive standard T2DM therapy plus a combination of exosomes (1 vial Exo-HWS + 1 vial Exo-HUVEC). The control group will receive standard T2DM therapy plus 1 vial Exo-HWS. The study duration is from June to December 2025.
Interventions
The intervention group will receive standard DM therapy plus an exosome combination of 1 vial Exo-HWS + 1 vial Exo-HUVEC, administered monthly for three months via intravenous bolus injection.
The control group will receive standard DM therapy plus 1 vial Exo-HWS, administered monthly for three months via intravenous bolus injection.

Intervention model description
open-label randomized controlled trial with a pre-and-post-test control group design. The study aims to compare the effectiveness of Mesenchymal Stromal/Stem Cells-Derived Exosomes (MSC-Exos) as an additional therapy for patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). The study will recruit 50 subjects who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria. These subjects will be randomly assigned to one of two groups Intervention Group: This group will receive standard T2DM therapy along with a combination of exosomes, specifically 1 vial of Exo-HWS and 1 vial of Exo-HUVEC. The exosome therapy will be administered as an intravenous bolus injection monthly, for three months. Control Group: This group will receive standard T2DM therapy plus 1 vial of Exo-HWS. This therapy will also be administered monthly, for three months, via intravenous bolus injection.
Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Patients diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. * Patients aged 40 to 65 years. * Patients who are willing to participate in the study and sign the informed consent form after receiving a detailed explanation of the research procedure.
Exclusion criteria
* Patients with severe comorbidities that could affect the immune response, such as autoimmune diseases, malignancies, and severe infections. * Patients currently undergoing anticoagulant therapy. * Patients currently undergoing immunosuppressive therapy. * Pregnant women, as the effects of exosome therapy on them have not been sufficiently studied. * Patients with a history of severe allergies to components of the exosome therapy. * Patients with CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease) on HD (Hemodialysis).
