About this study

Official title: Quantitative Measurements of the Skin Dermal Regeneration After Stromal Vascular Fraction Transplantation

This study is a prospective, exploratory investigation aimed at exploring the efficacy of stromal vascular fraction (SVF) transplantation in treating exhaustion of dermal regenerative capacity during skin expansion. The dermal thickness, texture, and perfusion before and after SVF transplantation would be recorded and analyzed by a series of quantitative devices including laser 3D scanner, Doppler ultrasound, VISIA skin analyzer, CK skin analyzer, and indocyanine green angiography.

Read the detailed description

This study is a prospective, exploratory investigation aimed at exploring the efficacy of stromal vascular fraction (SVF) transplantation in treating exhaustion of dermal regenerative capacity during skin expansion. The dermal thickness, texture, and perfusion before and after SVF transplantation would be recorded and analyzed by a series of quantitative devices including laser 3D scanner, Doppler ultrasound, VISIA skin analyzer, CK skin analyzer, and indocyanine green angiography.

The trial aims to include patients experiencing dermal exhaustion during the process of skin soft tissue expansion. We will extract SVF components from autologous adipose tissue and injected intradermally into the expanded skin. The changes of dermis of expanded skin were recorded before the treatment (baseline), and at 4 weeks and 8 weeks follow-up timepoints after SVF transplantation. More specifically, skin surface area was measured using laser 3D scan; skin thickness and texture were detected by Doppler ultrasound, VISIA skin analyzer and CK skin analyzer; skin blood perfusion was analyzed using indocyanine green angiography.

What participants receive

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

  • Stromal vascular fraction transplantationProcedure or surgery

    Stromal vascular fraction was extracted from subcutaneous fat harvested from either the abdomen or the posterior inner thigh region. The SVF cell-pellet was washed and was adjusted to 2×10^6 cells/mL. The skin was marked with methylene blue and a total of 0.5ml (around 1×10^6 cells) were transplanted intradermally at the center of each 2cm×2cm squares.

    The expander was inflated two times a week using constant pressure inflation method, where the intracapsular pressure was monitored using a pressure meter and the inflation was halted when the pressure reached 100 mmHg. This procedure was repeated until adequate skin area was achieved for subsequent facial restoration surgery.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Stromal vascular fraction transplantationExperimentalSubcutaneous fat was harvested from either the abdomen or the posterior inner thigh region and then digested with 600 U of collagenase (Shanghai Qiaoyuan Biological Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd, Shanghai, China) at 37°C and 150rpm for three hours. After enzymatic digestion, the lower aqueous phase liquid was aspirated to acquire the stromal vascular fraction (SVF). The SVF cell-pellet was washed and adjusted to 2×10^6 cells/mL. The skin was marked with methylene blue and a total of 0.5ml (around 1×10^6 cells) were transplanted intradermally at the center of each 2cm×2cm squares. The expander was inflated two times a week using constant pressure inflation method, where the intracapsular pressure was monitored using a pressure meter and the inflation was halted when the pressure reached 100 mmHg. This procedure was repeated until adequate skin area was achieved for subsequent facial restoration surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Dermal thickness

    Using Doppler ultrasound to measure the full-thickness of skin dermis of the expanded skin. The measurements were conducted at the center of the expanded skin and other four points (above, below, left, right) around the center. The average value is taken to represent the dermal thickness of the patient's expanded skin.

    Measured: Baseline: before SVF transplantation (Baseline); Follow-up: 4 and 8 weeks after SVF transplantation

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Skin surface area

    Using the HSCAN771 handheld laser 3D scanner and the VIVID910 3D laser scanning system to measure the surface area of the expanded skin.

    Measured: Baseline: before SVF transplantation (Baseline); Follow-up: 4 and 8 weeks after SVF transplantation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Stromal vascular fraction transplantation in people with Skin Regeneration, run by Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong 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 3 inclusion and 7 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 3 Jun 2024. 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.

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?

Dermal thickness (time frame: Baseline: before SVF transplantation (Baseline); Follow-up: 4 and 8 weeks after SVF transplantation). 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 3 Jun 2024.
