About this study

Official title: Multicenter Phase II, Randomized Open Clinical Trial on the Therapeutic Use of Intra-arterial Infusion of Autologous Bone Marrow Mononuclear Cells in Non-diabetic Patients With Critical Chronic Ischemia of Lower Limbs (CLI).

Phase II Clinical Trial, a prospective, multicenter, open, randomized, parallel-group controlled with three levels of dose.

The hypothesis of the test we propose is that the mononuclear cells of bone marrow provide progenitor cells with regenerative capacity and besides secrete several angiogenic factors, and their implantation into ischemic tissues with both elements should contribute to angiogenesis and tissue regeneration with recovery of the circulation in the affected limb.

Read the detailed description

The study population will consist of a total of 44 non-diabetic patients with chronic critical ischemia in at least one of their lower limbs (CLI) and without possibility of revascularization. In the experimental group will be included a total of 33 patients divided into three levels of dose, 11 patients in each level (increasing dose of mononuclear cells from autologous bone marrow) and other 11 patients in control group.

  • 11 patients in group 1 will not receive cell therapy, and they will only receive conventional treatment, acting as a control group.
  • 11 patients in group 2 will receive 1x108 autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells.
  • 11 patients in group 3 will receive 5x108 autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells.
  • 11 patients in group 4 will receive 1x109 autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells.

The cell therapy drug will be administered intra-arterially in all cases. Patients will be evaluated by clinical, radiological and angiological methods (ankle / brachial pressure index, transcutaneous oxygen pressure, perimeter calf muscle, presence of ulcers, oximetry and digital arteriography).

Patients will receive concomitant drug treatment established by the good clinical practice, so undoubtedly it could be possible that some improvement occurs due to drug treatment.

It is estimated that the inclusion period is approximately 42 months, and the follow-up of each patient of six months. Therefore the total duration of the study will be about forty eight months from the entry of the first patient to the end of the follow-up period of the last patient included.

The primary variable is the improvement in the vascularisation of the treated limb determined by clinical, angiographic and angiologist parameters.

Study objectives :

  • Main objective: To evaluate the safety and feasibility of the autotransplantation of autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells administered intra-arterially in non-diabetic patients with critical chronic ischemia of the lower limbs without possibility of either revascularization or other therapeutic alternatives.

Secondary objectives:

  1. To compare the effect of three increasing dose of mononuclear cells from autologous bone marrow in the recovery of clinical, angiographic angiologist parameters in non-diabetic patients with critical chronic ischemia of lower limbs to a control group that will have been applied to a conventional treatment.
  2. To analyze complications from regenerative therapy itself, from the route of administration and / or study procedures.

What participants receive

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

  • Intraarterial Infusion of Autologous Bone Marrow Mononuclear CellsOther

    Autologous bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells will be infused by an intraarterial catheter into de ischemic limb. The number of infused cells will be 1x108, 5x108 and 1x109 low, intermediate and high dose in the arms respectively.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Intraarterial Infusion of Autologous Bone Marrow Mononuclear Cells in people with Critical Limb Ischemia (CLI), run by Andalusian Initiative for Advanced Therapies - Fundación Pública Andaluza Progreso y Salud at 5 sites in Spain.

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 15 inclusion and 9 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 16 Mar 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Spain. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 (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 16 Mar 2016.
