About this study

Official title: Phase I/II Study of Intravenous Administration of Activated Autologous Adipose-Derived Stromal Vascular Fraction in Patients With Type 1 Diabetes

The purpose of this study is to determine whether intravenous administration of autologous adipose stem cells is safe and beneficial in patients with type 1 diabetes.

Read the detailed description

Diabetes Mellitus is of large epidemic proportions worldwide. It is proliferating at such a fast rate that new novel drugs and other therapeutic approaches are required. The purpose of this Phase I/II study is to determine whether the intravenous administration of activated adipose-derived stromal vascular fraction as a single procedure is safe and efficacious in patients with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus. Patients will be observed over 12 months following the procedure, with 2 weeks, 1 month and tri-monthly diagnostics and life style questionaires.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Lowering of insulin-dependence and anti-hyperglycemic medication dosages

    Measured: At 2, 4, 12, 24, 36, and 48 weeks

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Lowering of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1C).

    Measured: At 4, 12, 24, 36, and 48 weeks

  2. Increased circulating C-Peptide levels

    Measured: At 4, 12, 24, 36, and 48 weeks.

  3. Increased general well-being of patients.

    Measured: At 2, 4, 12, 24, 36, and 48 weeks.

  4. No detrimental change seen in kidney function tests, liver function tests and other haematological parameters.

    Measured: At 2, 4, 12, 24, 36, and 48 weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Autologous Adipose-derived Stem cells in people with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Adistem Ltd at 2 sites in Philippines.

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 2 inclusion and 1 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 1 Jul 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Philippines. 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 combined 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.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 Letitia Lucero-Palma, MD (63-916-478-7512, lettielucero@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Lowering of insulin-dependence and anti-hyperglycemic medication dosages (time frame: At 2, 4, 12, 24, 36, and 48 weeks). 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 NCT00703599, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 1 Jul 2008.
