About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Safety and Efficacy in Patients With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus by Transplantation of Umbilical Cord Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells

This study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells transplantation in systemic lupus erythematosus.

Read the detailed description

To ensure that all patients of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) completed 6-months follow-up, twenty SLE patients ranging from 14 to 60 years old were enrolled in this trial. Participants matched with the inclusion criteria were allocated randomly into two groups:Human Umbilical Cord Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (hUC-MSCs) treated group and control group. Clinical trials are being increasingly established to investigate the therapeutic potential of these cells for SLE. The aim of the present study is to investigate safety and efficacy of vein infusion of allogeneic hUC-MSCs in patients with SLE.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • mesenchymal stem cellsBiological

    SLE patients in the treated group were given human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells by intravenous infusion and conventional therapy. There was only conventional treatment in the control group. All patients after treatment for 1, 3 and 6months were evaluated respectively the curative effect.

Study groups in NCT03219801
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
mesenchymal stem cellsExperimentalSelected SLE patients were randomly divided into treated group and control group. In the treated group, 100-300 million allogeneic human umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells were infused intravenously for one SLE patient. The possible adverse events, including immediately after mesenchymal stem cells infusions, as well as the long-term safety profiles were observed.
Receives: Biological: mesenchymal stem cells

What is being measured

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

  1. The change of Complement levels(C3 and C4) in peripheral blood

    The recovery of immunologic function is evaluated by complement levels (g/L) in peripheral blood.

    Measured: Post cell transplantation: 1, 3, 6 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Erythrocyte sedimentation rate

    The change of inflammation is evaluated by erythrocyte sedimentation rate.

    Measured: Post cell transplantation: 1, 3, 6 months

  2. C-reactive protein

    C-reactive protein is an acute phase reactants. It can be moderately increased in in peripheral blood of SLE patients.

    Measured: Post cell transplantation: 1, 3, 6 months

  3. adverse reaction

    Adverse reaction includes temperature changes(℃), the change of blood pressure(mmHg) and allergic reaction.These measurements were associated with the safety of the intervention.

    Measured: Post cell transplantation: 1, 3, 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing mesenchymal stem cells in people with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, run by Hebei 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 7 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 18 Jul 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 phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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 Jun Zhang, Master (86-311-85917384, june_luck@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The change of Complement levels(C3 and C4) in peripheral blood (time frame: Post cell transplantation: 1, 3, 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 18 Jul 2017.
