Cardiac Function: left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 50% (confirmed by echocardiography). Pulmonary Function: resting oxygen saturation (SpO₂) \> 92% without supplemental oxygen.
* Female participants of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test.
* Female participants of childbearing potential or male participants with partners of childbearing potential must agree to use effective contraception during the study and for 1 year after the final cell infusion.
* Willingness to sign the informed consent form, demonstrating understanding of the study and agreement to comply with study procedures.

Exclusion Criteria:
