Safety and Efficacy of Adipose Derived Stem Cells for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

July 22, 2017 updated by: Kimera Society Inc

An Open-label, Non-Randomized, Multi-center Study to Assess the Safety and Effects of Intravenous Implantation of Liposuction Derived Autologous Adipose-derived Stem Cells in Subjects With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

This will be an open-label, non-randomized multi-center study designed to assess the safety and efficacy of Adipose-derived Stem Cell (ASC) IV implantation. The therapy is composed of cells isolated from a patient's own adipose tissue. Liposuction will be performed to collect the adipose tissue specimen for subsequent processing to isolate the stem cells.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

In the context of the proposed study, adipose derived stem cells (ASC) constitute an autologous cell product that is delivered to the patient via intra-venous injection. In this study, we propose to investigate the immunosuppressive potential of the non-manipulated non-cultured stromal vascular fraction obtained via liposuction. Endpoints will be measured both by improvement of the forced evacuation volume in one second (FEV1) and distance covered in a 6 minute walk distance test (6MWD). The stromal vascular fraction comprises stromal cells isolated from total fat via enzymatic digestion ex-vivo. These cells are not cultured but are isolated from adipose tissue using a sterile tissue process in under two hours. The process includes rinsing in a saline solution to remove red blood cells, draining, and enzymatic digestion (collagenase) which isolates endothelial cells from adipose tissue. Post-processing, the pellet obtained via centrifugation is filtered and delivered to the patient who remains sedated within the same ambulatory center.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

14 years to 81 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Age 18 to 85, inclusive
  • A prior diagnosis of moderate to severe COPD
  • GOLD IIa, III, IV

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Pregnant or lactating
  • Life expectancy < 6 months due to concomitant illnesses.
  • Exposure to any investigational drug or procedure within 1 month prior to study entry or enrolled in a concurrent study that may confound results of this study.
  • Any illness which, in the Investigators judgment, will interfere with the patient's ability to comply with the protocol, compromise patient safety, or interfere with the interpretation of study results
  • Subjects on chronic immunosuppressive or chemotherapeutic therapy
  • Known drug or alcohol dependence or any other factors which will interfere with the study conduct or interpretation of the results or who in the opinion of the investigator are not suitable to participate.
  • Subjects with Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (an inherited disorder that can cause lung disease and liver disease).
  • Unwilling and/or not able to give written consent
  • Patient is positive for hepatitis (past history of Hepatitis A is allowed)
  • Any medical condition, which in the opinion of the clinical investigator, would interfere with the treatment or outcome of the patient

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.

Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Adverse Events
Time Frame: 12 months

FEV1 Decline
Time Frame: 12 months
The primary efficacy outcome will be a FEV1 decline of approximately or less than 30 ml at 12 month follow-up.
12 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
