About this study

Official title: Mesenchymal Stem Cell Transplantation in the Treatment of Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head

Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) have been shown to have immunosuppressive and repairing properties. Bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMMNCs) have revascularization properties and complimentary effects to MSCs. The investigators will infuse expanded autologous MSCs and BMMNCs into patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head. The study purpose is to examine whether this treatment will result in improvement in osteonecrosis of the femoral head.

Read the detailed description

Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) have been shown to have immunosuppressive and repairing properties. Bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMMNCs) have revascularization properties and complimentary effects to MSCs. Patients in this study will receive infusion of expanded autologous MSC and BMMNCs. The puncture of femoral artery will be conducted with digital subtraction angiography(DSA), and the tubes will be inserted into medial femoral circumflex artery,lateral femoral circumflex artery and obturatou artey. The study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of MSC infusion in patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head. This study will last for 5 years. Patients will undergo infusions at Day 0. Afterward, patients will be evaluated for response, and undergo X-ray examination, CT and MR scanning at a 6-month interval.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing mesenchymal stem cell infusion and bone marrow mononuclear cell infusion in people with Osteochondritis of the Femoral Head, run by Jianming Tan at 1 site in China.

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 6 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 10 Oct 2012. 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 China. 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?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The femoral head blood-supply artery angiographies and the areas of femoral head necrosis (time frame: 2). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 10 Oct 2012.
