About this study

Official title: Phase I Study of Intramuscular (IM) Injection of Allogeneic PLX-PAD Cells for the Treatment of Critical Limb Ischemia. PLX-PAD Are Mesenchymal-like Stromal Cells Derived From a Full Term Placenta. These Placental Adherent Stromal Cells (ASCs) Are Expanded in the Company's Proprietary PluriXTM 3D Bioreactor System. PLX Cells Are Immune Privileged and Possess Immunomodulatory Properties.

The The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of PLX-PAD single dose, Intra-muscular injection for the treatment of CLI patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing PLX-PAD IM injection in people with Peripheral Artery Disease and Peripheral Vascular Disease, run by Pluristem Ltd. at 1 site in Germany.

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 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Jun 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 Germany. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Adverse events, Safety laboratory values and ECG findings (time frame: 3 months). 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?
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 19 Jun 2012.
