About this study

The purpose of this study is to compare use of a tissue-engineered bone to use of a standard allograft bone to treat bone defect in patients. The hypothesis is that use of the tissue-engineered bone is effective and safe to treat the bone defect in patients.

Read the detailed description

Patients with the bone defect without infection and sever system diseases will be recruited.

The material selected as the scaffold for this study will be a porous β-tricalcium phosphate scaffold (β-TCP) scaffold and scaffold is custom-made according to the size and shape of bone defect after three-dimensional CT scan. Human BMSCs will be obtained and cultured before operation and 3.4×106 cells in 10ml serum-free medium will be seeded onto scaffold to construct the tissue engineered bone graft and co-cultured for two weeks.

The implant operation will be carried out under the general anesthesia. The tissue engineered bone graft will be implanted into the bone defect area. The bone defect area will be covered with surrounding soft tissue and muscle to close the wound. Anti-inflammatory, repercussive and analgesic drugs will be used for 1 week.

Patient will be hospitalized for 1 to 2 weeks after surgery. Blood routine examination, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, immunoglobulin, autoantibodies and clinical examination will be carried out for signs of pain, swelling, immune rejection and infection. Patient will be evaluated at 3 days,3, 6, 12, 18 and 22 months after operation by radiography; Three-dimensional CT scan will be also performed at regular intervals. The function of the body will be evaluated at regular intervals.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing allograft bone and tissue-engineered bone in people with Bone Defect and Bone Nonunion, run by Xijing Hospital 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 6 inclusion and 6 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 17 Nov 2017. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact long bi, MD,PHD (+86 02984773524, bilong@fmmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The scores of bone healing (time frame: within 48 weeks after surgical treatment of bone dect). 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 17 Nov 2017.
