About this study

Official title: An Open-label, Non-Randomized, Multi-Center Study to Assess the Safety and Effects of Autologous Adipose-Derived Stromal Cells Delivered Via Catheter Into the Internal Carotid Artery and Intravenously in Patients With Diffuse Lesions in the Brain

The intent of this clinical study is to answer the questions:

  1. Is the proposed treatment safe
  2. Is treatment effective in improving the disease pathology of patients with diffuse brain lesions and clinical outcomes.
Read the detailed description

This will be an open-label, non-randomized multi-center patient sponsored study of Adipose-Derived Stromal Cells (ASC) implantation using a catheter delivery system. ASCs will be derived from the patient's adipose-derived tissue. Liposuction using local anesthesia and syringe collection will be performed to collect the adipose tissue specimen for subsequent processing to isolate the stem cells. The cells will be delivered via catheter into the internal carotid artery and intravenously.

What participants receive

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

  • harvesting and implantation of adipose derived stem cellsProcedure or surgery

    Adipose-Derived Stem cells will be derived from the patient's fat tissue. Liposuction using local anesthesia and syringe collection will be performed to collect the adipose tissue specimen for subsequent processing to isolate the stem cells. The cells will be delivered via catheter into the internal carotid artery and intravenously.

What is being measured

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

  1. Improvement in standardized Gross Motor Function Measure evaluation compared to baseline

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Number of participants with adverse events

    The safety of adipose-derived stem cell injection will be evaluated by assessment of the frequency and nature of adverse events occurring during the study injection and up to the 6-month period following treatment.

    Measured: up to 6 months

  3. Improved cognitive function as measured by the mini mental state exam

    Measured: 3 months

  4. Improvement in standardized Gross Motor Function Measure evaluation compared to baseline

    Measured: 6 months

  5. Improved cognitive function as measured by the mini mental state exam compared to baseline

    Measured: 6 months

  6. Reduced depressive symptoms measured by the Beck Depression Inventory compared to baseline

    Measured: 3 months

  7. Reduced depressive symptoms measured by the Beck Depression Inventory compared to baseline

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. number of brain lesions by MRI compared to baseline

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Improved quality of life scores compared to baseline

    Measured: 3 months

  3. Improved quality of life scores compared to baseline

    Measured: 6 months

  4. number of brain lesions by MRI compared to baseline

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing harvesting and implantation of adipose derived stem cells in people with Brain Lesion (General), run by Ageless Regenerative Institute at 1 site in Mexico.

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 14 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 21 Jul 2017. 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 Mexico. 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 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?

Improvement in standardized Gross Motor Function Measure evaluation compared to baseline (time frame: 3 months). The study lists 7 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 21 Jul 2017.
