About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Cx601 (Darvadstrocel) for the Treatment of Perianal Fistulizing Crohn's Disease - a Prospective Nationwide Multicentre Study

The use of mesenchymal stem cells is considered a novel and promising therapeutic option for patients with perianal fistulizing Crohn's disease. However, due to limited clinical data, this multicentre, nationwide study aimed to assess its clinical efficacy in closing complex anal fistula.

Read the detailed description

Fifteen applications in 14 patients (3 male, 11 female) with complex anal fistulas treated in three tertiary hospitals in Austria were included between October 2018 and April 2021. Injection of 120 million allogeneic expanded adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (Cx601 - Darvadstrocel, Alofisel®) was performed in each patient. Closure of the external fistula opening without secretion by finger compression was defined as success.

What is being measured

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

  1. Fistula Closure

    The study's primary endpoint was established at week 52 with clinically assessed fistula closure.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Evaluation of perianal disease

    At every follow up visit the perianal disease was evaluated using the PDAI (Perianal disease activity index)

    Measured: 1 year

  2. Evaluation of Crohn's disease

    Crohn's disease was evaluated by using the HBI (Harvey Bradshaw Index)

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Crohn Disease and Fistula Perianal, run by Medical University of Vienna at 1 site in Austria.

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 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Apr 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 Austria. 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?

Fistula Closure (time frame: 1 year). 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 11 Apr 2022.
