About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Tissue Regeneration Potential (in the Skin) of Child's Adipose Cells During the Development.

The beneficial effect related to the administration of adipose tissue-derived stromal cells (ADSC) is demonstrated in various situations of physiological and pathological wound healing, thus opening a new field for cell therapy. Despite the use of new technologies, management of burns in children as well as congenital malformation such as hypospadias and cleft lip and/ or cleft palate can lead to aesthetic and functional sequelae requiring multiple surgical procedures. Cell therapy based on the administration of the ADSC seems a promising issue in such indications, however, to date no study has been conducted with ADSC from a pediatric population. An initial study (Protocol 0808203) allowed investigors to obtain the first samples of adipose tissue from children and to conduct an in vitro comparative study on the characterization and properties of the ADSC from children compared to adults. In the continuity, this second study aims to complete knowledge on the efficacy and safety of children ADSC cell therapy assessed in an animal model of skin wound healing developed in the lab.

Read the detailed description

Through this study, the medium term objective is to approach a clinical protocol for treatment of pathological scars in developing an appropriate way to deliver ADSC for a future clinical application, while ensuring the safety of such procedure.

The primary goal of this work is to determine whether ADSC from children prepared according to Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP), is associated with an improvement of wound healing in vivo as demonstrated with adult ADSC. To answer this question, 40 samples of adipose tissue of children obtained from settled surgery (inguinal hernia and vesico-ureteral reflux by suprapubic way) will be performed within the 2 groups of children; 0 to 1 year and 2 to 13 years, defined from data acquired in the previous protocol. Wound healing will be evaluated in a nude mouse model of skin burn. A macroscopic analysis will be carried out with two indexes described in the literature (re-epithelialization and scar contraction) and expressed as a percentage of the initial lesion at different times (3 days, 7 days, 10 days, 14 days, 21 days, 30 days). A microscopic analysis will be conducted to determine the rate of re-epithelialization (day 7) and the evolution of the skin structural parameters (dermal and epidermal thickness, density of collagen, inflammatory infiltration). These indexes will be defined in the treated group (burned mice and injected with pediatric ADSC) from control mice (burned but not injected with cells). A comparative analysis between the two groups of age will be conducted that will be also compared to data collected with adult ADSC.

To answer to the second part of this primary goal regarding to safety, the study will perform a long-term follow-up (1 yr) of burned mice injected with of ADSC, to obtain data in the animal after transplantation of cells and for further clinical study.

Complementary in vitro investigations still seems necessary to better understand the specificities of ADSC from pediatric origin and particularly to perform transcriptomic and epigenetic studies.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing adipose tissue sample in people with Burns, run by University Hospital, Toulouse at 1 site in France.

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 9 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 May 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 France. 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?

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?

Efficacity of treatment as assessed by surface healed skin (cm2) in animal model (time frame: 1 month after injection). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02779205, 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 12 May 2017.
