About this study

Official title: The Safety and Efficacy Assessment of Human Umbilical Cord-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (HUC-MSCs) With Injectable Collagen Scaffold Transplantation in Woman With Premature Ovarian Failure (POF)

Cellular therapies are rapidly progressing fields and have shown immense promise in the treatment of damaged ovarian function. The purpose of this study is to determine safety and efficacy of intra-ovarian injection of allogeneic HUC-MSCs with injectable collagen scaffold in women with Premature Ovarian Failure (POF) and to study the preliminary efficacy of HUC-MSCs with injectable collagen scaffold injection on ovarian function improvement.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study was to explore the therapeutic potency of the HUC-MSCs with injectable collagen scaffold transvaginal injection for POF women. The serum of each patient was kept and sent for laboratory test before the surgery. HUC-MSCs were isolated and cultured in vitro and the biomarkers of HUC-MSCs were detected using Flow cytometry detection. The HUC-MSCs with injectable collagen scaffold were then injected directly into bilateral ovaries. The outcomes of patients were examined after the injection. The patients are monitored for signs of follicle growth and growing follicles are stimulated with exogenous hormones, followed by oocyte retrieval and In Vitro Fertilization (IVF).

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety and Tolerability assessed by Adverse Events

    Proportion of patients with postoperative infections and serious adverse events (SAEs) were assessed by long term follow-up.

    Measured: Up to 6 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Number of Antral follicle development

    The number of follicles developing was recorded by transvaginal ultrasound scan.

    Measured: Once a week within 3 months after the surgery

  2. Estradiol (E2) serum level

    Serum E2 level was evaluated after surgery.

    Measured: Once a week within 3 months after the surgery

  3. Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) serum level

    Serum FSH level was evaluated after surgery.

    Measured: Once a week within 3 months after the surgery

  4. Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) serum level

    Serum AMH level was evelated after surgery.

    Measured: Once a week within 3 months after the surgery

  5. Pregnancy rate

    The incidence of pregnancy following transfer of embryos produced from oocytes recovered from follicles developing was assessed by Serum Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) detection.

    Measured: 2 weeks after embryo implantation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing HUC-MSCs Transplantation and HUC-MSCs with Injectable Collagen Scaffold Transplantation in people with Premature Ovarian Failure, run by Chinese Academy of Sciences at 1 site in China.

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 8 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 13 Jan 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 China. 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?

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?

Safety and Tolerability assessed by Adverse Events (time frame: Up to 6 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 13 Jan 2020.
