About this study

Official title: Efficacy Of Autologous Bone Marrow Derived Stem Cell Transplantation In Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

The purpose of this study is to improve blood glucose control in Type 2 Diabetes mellitus patients.

Read the detailed description

We hypothesize that Autologous bone marrow derived stem cell transplantation(ABMSCT)into the pancreas of patients with T2DM, aged 30 - 70 years with triple oral hypoglycemic agent failure and on insulin(>0.4 U/ kg body weight/day) will lead to abolition or reduction of insulin requirement by more than or equal to 50% in these patients over a period of 6 months. It is assumed that ABMSCT in these patients leads to increased angiogenesis, secretion of various cytokines and upregulation of pancreatic transcription factors and Vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and creates a microenvironment which supports beta cell/resident stem cell activation and survival.

Being tested
stem cell transplantation
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • stem cell transplantationBiological

    Also called Autologous Bone marrow derived stem cell transplantation

    Group 1: 200 - 250 ml of bone marrow will be aspirated and layered on density gradient medium (Ficoll - Hyperaque) and stem cells will be separated. Separated MNC's will be tagged with FDG-PET and injected into superior pancreatico duodenal artery and an PET scan will be done 2 hours later to see the percentage of stem cells homing in to pancreas. After 8 weeks G-CSF(10mcg/Kg/day) will be given subcutaneous for 5 days to achieve a Leucocyte count of >40,000/mm3. Patients will be urged to monitor and document blood glucose readings for next 6 months. Glucagon stimulated C - peptide, plasma Insulin, HOMA-IR , HOMA-B ,HbA1c, lipid profile and biochemistry will be done at baseline and 6 months .

Study groups in NCT01065298
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group 1:Stem cell RecipientPatients with Type 2 Diabetes mellitus on full doses of Vildagliptin+Pioglitazone+Metformin and requiring Insulin at dose of >0.4U/Kg for blood glucose control. They will undergo stem cell therapy initialy and G-CSF therapy at 2 months
Receives: Biological: stem cell transplantation
Group-2: ControlsType 2 Diabetes mellitus patients on full doses of vildagliptin+metformin+pioglitazone and on Insulin >0.4U/Kg who will act as active control.They will receive injectable placebo at Day 1 in addition to above and will be followed up for 6 months.Follow up investigation and Insulin dose titration will be similar to Group 1.

What is being measured

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

  1. Reduction of insulin requirement by ≥ 50% by the end of 6 months of ABMSCT and Improvement in Glucagon stimulated C - peptide levels .

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Any reduction in requirement of insulin dosage and any improvement of HbA1c levels as compared to controls.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, run by Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research, Chandigarh at 1 site in India.

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 6 inclusion and 8 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 21 Oct 2015. 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 India. 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.

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?

Reduction of insulin requirement by ≥ 50% by the end of 6 months of ABMSCT and Improvement in Glucagon stimulated C - peptide levels . (time frame: 6 months). 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 NCT01065298, 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 21 Oct 2015.
