About this study

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a kind of chronic bronchitis or emphysema with characteristics of long-term poor airflow, resulting in chronic pulmonary heart disease, chronic respiratory failure or even death. Anatomically, the pulmonary bronchus structures in COPD patients are damaged and cannot be repaired by recent clinical treatment so far. This study intends to carry out an open, single-armed, phase I/II clinical trial to investigate whether bronchial basal cells can regenerate damaged lung tissue. During the treatment, bronchial basal cells will be isolated from patients' own bronchi and expanded in vitro. After careful characterization, cultured cells will be transplanted autologously into the lesion by fiberoptic bronchoscopy. The safety and efficacy of the treatment will be monitored by measuring the key clinical indicators.

What is being measured

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

  1. Forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1)

    One of the indicators for pulmonary function

    Measured: 1-6 months

  2. Forced vital capacity (FVC)

    One of the indicators for pulmonary function

    Measured: 1-6 months

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. FEV1/FVC, MMF, MVV and DLCO

    Other indicators for the pulmonary function

    Measured: 1-6 months

  2. 6 minute walk test (6MWT)

    Indicator to evaluate the exercise function of patients with moderate or severe pulmonary heart diseases

    Measured: 1-6 months

  3. MMRC

    Indicator to evaluate the level of dyspnea

    Measured: 1-6 months

  4. SGRQ

    A questionnaire to assess life quality affected by the respiratory problems

    Measured: 1-6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Bronchial basal cell in people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, run by Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University 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 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Mar 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 Guodong Hu, M.D. (huguodong123123@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) (time frame: 1-6 months). 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 28 Mar 2017.
