Trial summary

Background Perianal fistula may affect 15-50% of patients with Crohn's disease (CD). Treatment is complex, requiring a multidisciplinary approach. Darvadstrocel (allogeneic mesenchymal cells obtained from lipoaspirates) was approved in 2018 by the European Medicines Agency and Spanish Agency of Medicines and Medical… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Use of Darvadstrocel (Allogenic Stem Cell Therapy) for Crohn's Fistula in Real Clinical Practice: the National Project to Implement Mesenchymal Stem Cell for the Treatment of Perianal Crohn's Fistula (the PRIME Study)

Background Perianal fistula may affect 15-50% of patients with Crohn's disease (CD). Treatment is complex, requiring a multidisciplinary approach. Darvadstrocel (allogeneic mesenchymal cells obtained from lipoaspirates) was approved in 2018 by the European Medicines Agency and Spanish Agency of Medicines and Medical Products as a treatment for fistulas in CD. Recent European Crohn's and Colitis Organisation (ECCO) andSpanish Working Group on Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis (GETECCU) guidelines state that darvadstrocel is effective with a favourable safety profile,with a strong level of evidence (level 2).With this study we want to see the real efficacy of darvadstrocel in a Spanish population after 6 months of follow-up.

Read the detailed description

Methods: The criteria for the Spanish National Health System to fund darvadstrocel treatment are: 1)complex fistula in a patient with CD; 2)failure of conventional and anti-tumour necrosis factor treatment; and 3)absence of collection s>2cm confirmed by pelvic MRI scan at the time of surgery. From November 2019 to April 2022, 73 patients were treated with darvadstrocel at 14Spanish centres and evaluated clinically and radiologically 6 months after treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants with clinical remission

    Clinical remission was defined as closure of all previously draining external openings treated with darvadstrocel, despite gentle finger compression

    Measured: 6-month

  2. Number of Participants with clinical response

    Clinical response was defined as closure of ≥50% of previously draining external openings treated with darvadstrocel, despite gentle finger compression

    Measured: 6-month

  3. Number of Participants with clinical radiographic healing

    Complete radiographic healing was defined as an MRI result with no fluid collection >2cm in all dimensions, no oedema and no inflammation nor sign of active inflammatory response;a remnant fistula tract scar may remain

    Measured: 6-month

  4. Number of Participants with combined clinical-radiological response

    Combined clinical-radiological response, a new concept, was used to describe patients who achieved both clinical remission and complete radiological healing.

    Measured: 6-month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Crohn's Fistula, run by Dolores Herreros Marcos at 1 site in Spain.

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 3 inclusion and 1 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 23 Feb 2023. 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 Spain. 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?

Number of Participants with clinical remission (time frame: 6-month). The study lists 4 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 NCT05742100, 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 23 Feb 2023.
