About this study
Official title: Comparison of the Therapeutic Potential of Autologous Bone Marrow Mononuclear Cells Versus Allogenic Wharton Jelly-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Diabetic Patients With Chronic Limb-threatening Ischemia
Patients in the severe stages of Chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) are prone to amputation and death, leading to poor quality of life and a great socioeconomic burden.
There is an urgent need to develop an effective therapeutic strategy to treat this disease. In this context, autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells (BM-MNC) and allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells derived from different sources have emerged as promising therapeutic approaches for this condition.
Read the detailed description
Comparison of the therapeutic potential of BM-MNC vs. allogeneic Wharton jelly-derived mesenchymal stem cells (allo-WJ-MSCs) in diabetic patients with CLTI.
Twenty-four type 2 diabetic patients in the most severe stages of the CLTI (category 4 or 5 in Rutherford's classification and transcutaneous oxygen pressure (TcPO2) below 30 mm Hg were enrolled and randomized to receive 15 injections of (i) BM-MNC (7.197x106 ± 2.984 x106 cells/mL each with 2% of autologous serum) (n=7), (ii) allo-WJ-MSCs (1.333 x106 cells/mL each with 5% of human serum albumin serum) (n=7) or (iii) placebo solution (1 mL saline solution with 2% of autologous serum) (n=10), which were administered into the periadventitial arteries.
The follow-up visits were at months 1, 3, 6, and 12, to evaluate the following parameters:
(i) Rutherford classification (0 to 6) (ii) TcPO2 (mmHg) (iii) Wound closure (area cm2) (iv) pain (visual analogue scale (0-10) (v) pain-free walking distance (m) (vi) revascularization and limb-survival proportion during follow-up (vii) the quality of life (EQ-5D questionnaire).

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Cell-based therapyBiological
One dose of auto-BM-MNC, one dose of allo-WJ-MSCs, or one dose of placebo solution (saline solution with 2% of autologous serum), were periadventitial arteries administration in CTLI patients.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Placebo group | Placebo comparator | Placebo group (n=10), which consisted of 15 injections of 1 mL of vehicle (1 mL saline solution with 2% of autologous serum) on periadventitial arteries in one dose at day 0. Receives: Biological: Cell-based therapy |
| Auto-BM-MNC | Experimental | Auto-BM-MNC (n=7) were obtained from diabetic patients. Fifteen injections of 7.197x106 ± 2.984x106 cells/mL each with 2% of autologous serum were periadventitial arteries administrated in one dose at day 0. Receives: Biological: Cell-based therapy |
| Allo-WJ-MSCs | Experimental | Allo-WJ-MSCs (n=7) were obtained from culturing the WJ from healthy cordon umbilical donors unrelated to the patient. Fifteen injections of 1.333x106 cells/mL each with 5% of human serum albumin serum were periadventitial arteries administrated in one dose at day 0. Receives: Biological: Cell-based therapy |

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1/2 study testing Cell-based therapy in people with Chronic Limb-threatening Ischemia and Diabetes Mellitus, run by Fundación Oftalmológica de Santander Clínica Carlos Ardila Lulle at 1 site in Colombia.
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 14 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 30 Nov 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 Colombia. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?
Safety profile: (adverse events (AEs) and serious AEs) (time frame: 12 months). The study lists 10 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 NCT05631444, 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 30 Nov 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 1 Nov 2026.
