Trial summary

Surgical reconstructive procedures for rotator cuff tears present a number of limitations. The few studies in which the repair integrity is evaluated, have shown the existence of a high rate of reruptures in spite of the fact that the functional results obtained short-term are satisfactory.

About this study

Official title: Treatment of Rotator Cuff Tears Using Autologous Bone Marrow Mensenchymal Stem Cell Transplantation.

Surgical reconstructive procedures for rotator cuff tears present a number of limitations. The few studies in which the repair integrity is evaluated, have shown the existence of a high rate of reruptures in spite of the fact that the functional results obtained short-term are satisfactory. Morphologic analysis from the sutures, after different follow-up periods, has not shown satisfactory results.

Thus, the purpose of the current study was to test the hypotheses that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) included in a membrane into rotator cuff tears improves, the radiograms and the function compared to cell-free tendon defect treatment.

Read the detailed description

The investigators will include: Patients with massive tears from the supraspinatus tendon, in which reconstructive surgery is indicated. Patients will be randomly stratified into two groups.

The first group will receive autologous MSCs transplantation included in a collagen type I membrane (OrthADAPT) and the second group will serve as cell-free controls.

The surgical procedure will be performed by arthroscopic and/or combined technique: arthroscopic subacromial decompression and mini-open rotator cuff repair. The OrthADAPT-cells composite will be put on the sutured area. The radiograms and function will be assessed by independently observers, who will no have knowledge of the study group from which they will have been obtained.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) and OrthADAPT in people with Chronic Disease, run by Hospital San Carlos, Madrid at 2 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 7 inclusion and 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Sep 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Benjamín Fernández-Gutiérrez, PhD (+34913303615 ext. 7803, bfernandez.hcsc@salud.madrid.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Constant Shoulder Score (time frame: up to 1 year). 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 NCT01687777, which also lists 26 linked publications.

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 Sep 2012.
