About this study

Official title: A Pilot Safety Study of the Administration of Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSC) in the Treatment of Burn Wounds

This study will determine the safety of allogeneic stem cell therapy from healthy donors, for 2nd degree burn wounds of less than 20% Total Body Surface Area (TBSA), at four different dose levels.

Clinical evaluation will take place every 1 to 4 weeks intervals until wound closure, and then monthly for 6 months following the last administration of MSCs.

Once the safety and dose-response analysis in Phase 1 is completed, an expanded trial will be initiated to better examine the efficacy of MSC therapy in 2nd degree burn wounds. Phase 1 will establish the maximum safe dose that will be used in the Phase II trial.

What participants receive

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

  • Allogeneic (MSC's) Application to the Burn WoundsBiological

    Also called Stem Cells Application to the Burn Wounds

    Allogeneic (MSC's) Application to the Burn Wounds. The first group of 5 will be started on the lowest dose. If there are no adverse reactions, the second group of 5 will receive a higher dose. This will be repeated for the third and fourth groups with each receiving a higher dose

    1. Initial dose level will be 2.5 x 10³ Allogeneic MSCs cells/square cm.
    2. Second dose level 5 X 10³ Allogeneic MSCs cells/square cm.
    3. Third dose level 1 X 10⁴ Allogeneic MSCs cells/square cm.
    4. Fourth dose level 2 X 10⁴ Allogeneic MSCs cells/square cm.

    Up to 2 administrations of cells will be allowed per dose level to be given over a period of no more than 8 weeks. Each administration of cells will be no less than ten days apart and no more than 6 weeks apart.

What is being measured

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

  1. Monitoring for adverse events as Assessed by CTCAE v4.0 following administration of allogeneic MSCs to 2nd degree burn wounds.

    The study will consist of a dose escalation phase consisting of four dose levels. Each dose level will compare the safety of administering allogeneic MSCs, with 5 patients per group.

    Measured: 1.5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Allogeneic (MSC's) Application to the Burn Wounds in people with Skin Burn Degree Second, run by E.Badiavas at 1 site in United States.

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 10 inclusion and 23 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 30 Apr 2020. 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 United States. 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?

Monitoring for adverse events as Assessed by CTCAE v4.0 following administration of allogeneic MSCs to 2nd degree burn wounds. (time frame: 1.5 years). 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 NCT02104713, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 30 Apr 2020.
