About this study

Official title: Effectiveness and Safety of Endoscopically-Assisted Submucosal Administration of Autologous Adipose-Derived Regenerative Cells for the Treatment of Urethral Strictures

Autologous adipose-derived regenerative cells (ADRC) extracted using Celution 800/CRS System (Cytori Therapeutics Inc)from a portion of the fat harvested from the patient's front abdominal wall. ADRC will be administered one-time endoscopically into submucosal layer of urethra under eye control into the stricture site after mechanical dilation. This is a single arm study with no control. All patients receive cell therapy.

Read the detailed description

Fat tissue obtainment. Subjects will undergo liposuction under local anesthesia. In this procedure, Ringer's solution with the anesthetic lidocaine and vasoconstrictor adrenaline infused into the adipose compartment to minimize blood loss and contamination of the tissue by peripheral blood cells. 15 minutes later a hollow blunt-tipped 3 mm cannula introduced into the subcutaneous space through small (0.5 cm) incision. The cannula attached to syringe and under gentle suction moved through the adipose compartment, mechanically disrupting the fat tissue. Aspirate volume - approximately 150-200 cc. Procedure time - 30 minutes.

ADRC isolation. Aspirated fat tissue placed into sterile vessel which inserted into Celution 800/CRS System (Cytori Therapeutics Inc) - closed system for automated and standardized extraction and concentration of ADRC. Celution 800/CRS System drains excess of fluid from fat tissue and estimate it's volume After that lipoaspirate washed extensively with equal volumes of Ringer's solution to remove blood. At the end of this process System indicates required volume of enzyme reagent (Celase®) which should be added immediately by operator. After enzyme treatment Celution 800/CRS System automatically transfers isolated ADRC into washing compartment where ADRC washed and concentrated in 5 mL suspension. Tissue processing time - approximately 60 minutes. ADRC suspension match all requirements listed in technical documentation for Celution 800/CRS System. Obtained ADRC divided into 2 portions. First portion (0.2-0.5 mL) used for counting, viability and sterility assessment. Second portion placed into sterile syringe for injection.

Urethral stricture dilation. Under direct vision HiWire® hydrophilic nitinol wire positioned through the urethra and exchanged for a stiff-bodied wire. After that S-Curve urethral dilators (Cook Medical Inc.) passed over the wire guide progressing from the smallest to the largest 24(Fr) appropriate size while maintaining the wire guide's position.

Periurethral injection of ADRC. After dilation needle for injection introduced into urethra using endoscope. Urethra punctured several times circle-wise at the region of stricture at depth of 5 mm under endoscopic vision and 0.3-0.5 mL of ADRC suspension injected submucosally each time. Total volume of solution injected depends on stricture length and technical possibilities. Minimal injected volume - 3 mL, maximal - 4.5 ml. After fat micrograft injected, urethral balloon catheter placed and removed the following day.

What participants receive

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

  • Submucosal injection of ADRCOther

    Subjects will undergo liposuction under local anesthesia. Lipoaspirate will be processed to isolate and concentrate ADRCs. Patients will undergo mechanical dilation followed by submucosal periurethral ADRC injections circle-wise into stricture site under endoscopic vision.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Submucosal injection of ADRC in people with Urethral Strictures in Males, run by Burnasyan Federal Medical Biophysical Center at 1 site in Russia.

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 4 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 1 Jul 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 Russia. 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 combined 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.

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?

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 endpoint-1 (time frame: 4 weeks after treatment). The study lists 2 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 1 Jul 2013.
