About this study

Official title: Retrospective Study to Analyze Safety and Efficacy of Adipose Tissue Derived Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF) Application in Treatment of Long Bones Nonunion

Nonunion is a major complication of fractures.Per cutaneous bone marrow concentrate (BMC) application around fracture ends is being utilized with great success . Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs)are one of the major cell types found in BMC responsible for results Adipose tissue is an alternative source for MSCs. Besides abundant and readily accessible it also overcomes issue of morbidity with bone marrow aspiration.

this retrospective analysis to report the outcome in patients treated with fluoroscopic guided percutaneous injection of SVF at the site of fracture as an outpatient procedure between November 2012 to August 2018.

Read the detailed description

Nonunion is of major complication of fractures .The overall rate of non-union is still not clear but estimates from the published literature suggests a range between 5-10% of the total fractures.The gap in non-healing management has instigated the search for novel osteo-inductive substances. bone marrow concentrate is being utilized for many year with excellent results .Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs)are one of the major cell types of the Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC)that self-renovates and differentiates into multiple cell types of mesodermal origin such as osteoblasts, chondrocytes, and adipocytes.

Adipose tissue is an alternative source for MSCs .besides abundant and readily accessible it also overcomes issue of morbidity with bone marrow aspiration.

This retrospective analysis was conducted to report the outcome in patients treated with fluoroscopic guided percutaneous injection of SVF at the site of fracture as an outpatient procedure between November 2012 to August 2018.

The purpose of this study is to report the feasibility of minimally invasive percutaneous injection with autologous SVF and study the osteo-inductive efficacy of Adipose derived stromal cells in SVF in the management of non-union.

What participants receive

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

  • autologous adipose tissue derived stromal vascular fraction (SVF)Biological

    liquid and solid portion of lipo-aspirate after non enzymatic processing yields SVF.

    This isolation process yielded an abundant population of Adipose stromal cells(ASCs) which have multipotent differentiation potential. Immunophenotype is a CD14-, CD29+, CD31-, CD34low/+, CD45-, CD73+ and CD105+ ,

    , the SVF represents the 50-70% in volume of a lipoaspirate specimen. The SVF hosts a heterogeneous cell population (110x103 cells/ml on average) comprising mainly CD105+ mesenchymal stem cells (MSC, 20%), plus a wide number of CD34+ hematopoietic cells (40%).

Model description
retrospective study to report the outcome in patients treated with fluoroscopic guided per cutaneous injection of Adipose tissue derived stromal vascular fraction (SVF) at the site of fracture as an outpatient procedure between November 2012 to August 2018. The indication for this procedure was established atrophic non-union with no evidence of infection with maximum gap between the fragments to be\<5 mm and duration not later than one year between the fracture and the procedure. Healing at the injury site was evaluated using clinical and radio logical examination at 1,2,6, and 12 months post-treatment.Anterior-posterior radio graphs

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing autologous adipose tissue derived stromal vascular fraction (SVF) in people with Nonunion of Fracture, run by Dr. Himanshu Bansal Foundation at 1 site in India.

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 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Aug 2022. 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 India. 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?

Union (time frame: 8 weeks). 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 NCT04340284, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 2 Aug 2022.
