Trial summary

Avascular necrosis is a disease where there is cellular death (necrosis) of bone components due to interruption of the blood supply. Without blood, the bone tissue dies and the bone collapses. If avascular necrosis involves the bones of a joint, it often leads to destruction of the joint articular surfaces. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Bone Marrow Derived CD133+ Stem Cells Transplantation in Femoral Head Osteonecrosis

Avascular necrosis is a disease where there is cellular death (necrosis) of bone components due to interruption of the blood supply. Without blood, the bone tissue dies and the bone collapses. If avascular necrosis involves the bones of a joint, it often leads to destruction of the joint articular surfaces. Avascular necrosis is especially common in the hip joint. A variety of methods are now used to treat avascular necrosis the most common being the total hip replacement, or THR.A new, more promising treatment is hip resurfacing or metal on metal (MOM) resurfacing.Another treatment is utilization of bone marrow derived stem cells.these stem cells can provide angiogenic factors and osteogenic cytokine to improve angiogenesis and bone formation.

Read the detailed description

A vascular necrosis of femoral head is a debilitating disease resulting from interruption of blood supply to the bone. This pathologic process results in the death of marrow and osteocytes and, in its final stage, femoral head collapse. The most widespread treatment in the early stage of this disease is core decompression. This surgical procedure involves drilling into the femoral neck through the necrotic area, which reduces pressure within the bone and allows more blood vessels to form. This study is designed to evaluate the clinical safety and efficacy of CD133+ enriched bone marrow infusion adjacent with core decompression in patients with a vascular necrosis of femoral head . Patients will undergo core decompression followed by CD133+cell infusion into the cored area. Clinical assessment includes a MRI, Harries Hip Score,SF36, Visual Analogue Scale(VAS), and the WOMAC osteoarthritis Index.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing CD133+ cells in people with Osteonecrosis, run by Royan Institute at 1 site in Iran.

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 14 inclusion and 18 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 28 Aug 2013. 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 Iran. 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?

safety of bone marrow derived CD133+ cells transplantation (time frame: 6 months). 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 Aug 2013.
