Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This is a phase 1/2 single center, pilot study to assess safety and efficacy of allogeneic adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (HB-adMSCs) and to evaluate the timing and combination effects of active treatment versus placebo in promoting the recovery of erectile function in patients undergoing radical retropubic prostatectomy (RALP) of localized prostate cancer.
