About this study

Official title: Phase I Study of Stem Cell Mediated Angiogenesis for Limb Threatening Ischemia

The purpose of this study is to determine if bone marrow derived adult stem cells are safe and effective in inducing development of new blood vessels (angiogenesis) in the legs of patients with severe peripheral vascular disease.

Read the detailed description

Presently there are no effective medical therapies to enhance blood flow in the legs of patients with peripheral vascular disease. For patients with limb threatening ischemia the only option for relief of rest pain or gangrene is amputation.

There is evidence in animal and clinical studies that adult stem cells in the bone marrow, called endothelial progenitor cells, participate in the development of new blood vessels, a process called angiogenesis. In this investigation, patients with limb threatening ischemia will have their bone marrow harvested and the stem cells will then be removed and injected directly into the muscle of the diseased leg. The procedure will require about 4 hours and the subjects will be admitted to the Indiana University Medical Center overnight. The follow-up period is 12 weeks and the analysis will consist of examinations at 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 12 weeks. Adverse and serious adverse events will be recorded during this time period. Diagnostic studies will be obtained to measure blood flow in the treated leg during the follow up period and include transcutaneous (skin) oxygen measurements, pressure recordings in the leg, arteriography, magnetic resonance imaging, and wound healing.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing adult stem cells in people with Peripheral Vascular Diseases, run by Murphy, Michael P., MD at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Jun 2005. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Michael P Murphy, MD ((317) 630-8288, mipmurph@iupui.edu), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Adverse events recorded in the 12 week study period. The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00113243, which also lists 4 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Jun 2005.
