Effectiveness during this long-term extension, when other medications were allowed, was also evaluated.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This prospective, multisite, open-label extension study evaluated cats with refractory FCGS after partial- or full-mouth extractions and persistent clinical signs despite medical management. During the initial trial, cats received two intravenous doses of 20 million UMSCs 14 days apart. No additional UMSC dosing occurred during the present follow-up period. A total of 35 cats were enrolled through day 365. Safety assessments included physical examination, owner-reported observations and clinicopathology. Clinical outcomes were evaluated descriptively using owner-reported assessment of overall response (ORA) and veterinarian-assessed global oral lesion score (GOLS). Concomitant medications were permitted.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>No serious adverse events (AEs) were associated with UMSC administration, and no clinically relevant abnormalities were observed via hematology or urinalysis. The most common AEs temporally associated with dosing were transient nausea, vomiting, tachypnea, diarrhea, hypersalivation and pyrexia. At 1 year, 69% of cats gained weight (mean increase of 16.2%). Improvement in ORA at days 180 and 365 was 75.8% and 65.6%, respectively. Improvement in GOLS at days 180 and 365 was 51.5% and 46.9%, respectively. Mean reduction in lesion score at 1 year was 33%, with 22% of cats achieving clinical cure. Of the cats, 66% did not restart medical therapy after UMSC treatment, with only 8.6% continuing an immunosuppressant drug.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions and relevance<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Repeated intravenous UMSC therapy in cats with refractory FCGS appears safe in the long term, with no reported immunogenic or tumorigenic safety concerns. Clinically meaningful improvements in quality of life were maintained out to 1 year, with concurrent medication use as needed, and most cats were able to discontinue immunosuppressant medications. These results support the safe use of UMSCs for refractory FCGS.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/1098612x261431058","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,27]],"date-time":"2026-02-27T12:29:12Z","timestamp":1772195352000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Long-term field safety study evaluating allogeneic, uterine-derived mesenchymal stem cells for refractory feline chronic gingivostomatitis"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"28","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0008-8862-3021","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Valentine S","family":"Williams","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Gallant Therapeutics, San Diego, CA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jessica L","family":"Schneider","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Gallant Therapeutics, San Diego, CA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rudolph S","family":"Parrish","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Vista Research, Bath, ME, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Caryn M","family":"Thompson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Vista Research, Bath, ME, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Carolyn","family":"Wrightson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Gallant Therapeutics, San Diego, CA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nopmanee","family":"Taechangam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Gallant Therapeutics, San Diego, CA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Orzala","family":"Sharif","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Gallant Therapeutics, San Diego, CA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2272-3966","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Maria","family":"Soltero-Rivera","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgical and Radiological Sciences, University of California, Davis, CA, USA"},{"name":"Veterinary Institute for Regenerative Cures, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of California, Davis, CA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7289-8994","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Boaz","family":"Arzi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgical and Radiological Sciences, University of California, Davis, CA, USA"},{"name":"Veterinary Institute for Regenerative Cures, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of California, Davis, CA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Linda","family":"Black","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Gallant Therapeutics, San Diego, CA, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1098612X231186834"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11259-008-9153-8"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fvets.2017.00209"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.246.6.654"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jvim.14850"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5966\/sctm.2015-0127"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/089875649701400103"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fvets.2016.00054"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s13287-020-01623-9"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/sctm.17-0035"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fvets.2023.1171922"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1146\/annurev-pathol-011110-130230"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_14_2","article-title":"Mechanisms involved in the therapeutic properties of mesenchymal stem cells.","volume":"20","author":"Meirelles SM","year":"2009","unstructured":"Meirelles SM, Fontes AM, Covas DT, et al.
