Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the impact that treatment with a cellular concentrate derived from an individual's own fat, known as the stromal vascular fraction (SVF), has on pain and functionality in people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Autologous Adipose Stromal Vascular Fraction Outcomes in Rheumatoid Arthritis Research Study

The purpose of this study is to determine the impact that treatment with a cellular concentrate derived from an individual's own fat, known as the stromal vascular fraction (SVF), has on pain and functionality in people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). SVF contains multiple cellular components, including stem cells, with both regenerative and anti-inflammatory properties. This therapy has shown promise for ameliorating the symptoms of RA. This study is designed to evaluate changes in pain and functionality in individuals with RA for up to 12 months following SVF treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change from Baseline in Overall Rheumatoid Arthritis Disease Activity Over the Course of a 12 Month Period as Measured by the Patient Activity Scale-II (PAS-II)

    The change from baseline over the course of 12 months using participants' assessment of their overall ability to be active. Mean scores will be used for baseline (day 0) and all interviews up to month 12 (months 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12). Answer options are graded either according to a four point or ten point Likert response scale.

    Measured: Baseline, 12 Months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change from Baseline in Overall Health at Month 12 as Measured by the Participants' Response to the Health Assessment Questionnaire-II (HAQ-II)

    Participant assessment of the change in their overall health from baseline to month 12 using the HAQ-II. Answer options are given as a four point Likert response scale.

    Measured: Baseline, Month 12

  2. Change from Baseline in Overall Pain at Month 12 as Measured by Participants' Response to the Patient Activity Scale-II (PAS-II) Pain Subscale

    Participant assessment of the change in their overall pain from baseline to month 12 using the PAS-II pain subscale. Answer options are given as a ten point Likert response scale.

    Measured: Baseline, Month 12

  3. Change from Baseline in Overall Global Activity at Month 12 as Measured by Participants' Response to the Patient Activity Scale-II (PAS-II) Global Activity Subscale

    Participant assessment of the change in their overall global activity from baseline to month 12 using the PAS-II global activity subscale. Answer options are given as a ten point Likert response scale.

    Measured: Baseline, Month 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Rheumatoid Arthritis, run by StemGenex 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 4 inclusion and 2 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 31 Aug 2018. 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.

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 Holly Bergen (800-609-7795), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change from Baseline in Overall Rheumatoid Arthritis Disease Activity Over the Course of a 12 Month Period as Measured by the Patient Activity Scale-II (PAS-II) (time frame: Baseline, 12 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 31 Aug 2018.
