About this study

The purpose of this study is to determine whether using mesenchymal stem cells will heal benign bone lesion defects faster than demineralized bone matrix

Read the detailed description

Orthobiologics have recently become a mainstay in treating bony defects whether related to trauma, tumor, or other various reconstructive entities.1 Historically, benign bone growths that were excised, would be filled with either cement, autograft bone, or allograft substances. More recently, other substances have been utilized. These substances carry any or all osteoinductive, osteoconductive, or osteogenic properties. Various materials have been used to fill bony voids specifically related to benign bone growths. Trinity™ by Blackstone Medical inc. is an allograft substance that has recently began utilization. The difference in Trinity compared to various other allografts is that it utilizes mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) along with an allograft carrier to incorporate and induce bone formation. Previously, in order for stem cells to be included in grafting, it would require bone marrow aspiration and the morbidity that is associated with iliac crest bone grafting.

Trinity MSC's are pre-immunodepleted and therefore, do not stimulate local T-cell proliferation but instead are activated to act as osteoblasts and stimulate bone formation. This local response, could accelerate healing, earlier weight-bearing, healing, and filing of bone voids in patients that have had excision of bony masses. In previous animal models, the use of MSC's have been shown to increase bone healing in critical sized defects.

Trinity is currently approved for FDA use in bone defects specifically within the spine or trauma. It has not been shown to have any significant adverse events over standard bone substitute products. We hypothesize benign bone lesions that undergo curettage and filling with Trinity will heal faster than bone lesions filled with basic bone grafting.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Trinity multipotent stem cells and Demineralized bone matrix(DBM) in people with Bone Neoplasms, run by Emory University 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 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Nov 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 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 combined phase mean?

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

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Time to fill bony defect (time frame: Two to 52 weeks). 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 28 Nov 2012.
