Peri-sphincter Injection of Autologous Myofibres to Treat of Urinary Incontinence by Sphincter Deficiency (IPSMA)

May 17, 2023 updated by: Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris

Stress urinary incontinence related to intrinsic sphincter deficiency (ISD) is a severe form of incontinence that may have a major impact on the quality of life. The main treatment is surgical and consists in the implantation of medical devices such as the artificial urinary sphincter, adjustable continence therapy, compressive sling, or injection of bulking agent.

The investigator has developed a new therapeutic strategy for ISD that consist to implant myofibers with their attached satellite cells (the main source of muscle progenitor cells) at the vicinity of the striated urethral sphincter. The principle of this method relies on the in vivo activation of satellite cells leading to the formation of regenerated myofibers (myotubes) generating a distinct and tonic muscular activity . The proof of concept was investigated in a Phase I clinical trial: Investigator found that the periurethral implantation of myofiber strips around the urethra generated an electromyographic activity improving urethral closure pressure in women with severe urinary incontinence associated to ISD. In this previous study, the technique of myofiber implantation was invasive, as it required a surgical approach and dissection of the urethra to place the myofiber. For the clinical trial IPSMA, the investigator sought to optimize the myofiber transplantation process using a method injection of myofibers core obtained by hydro-dissection. The injection technique is performed percutaneously under fluoroscopic and endoscopic control and does not require a surgical approach of the urethra.

This clinical trial is prospective, open-label, non-randomized, uncontrolled, single-center for the first stage and multicenter for the second stage, of 13 months for each patient aims to assess the efficacy and safety of IPSMA in the treatment of urinary incontinence in women with ISD.

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

The investigator chose an assessment method in 2 stages according to the Simon plane . A total of 38 patients are needed. Assuming a ratio of 10% of lost patients or for which the primary endpoint was not evaluable, 4 additional patients will be included totaling 42 patients will be included.

This trial is single-center for the first stage and multicenter for the second stage.

11 patients will be included in the first stage and 31 patients in the second stage.

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.

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.
Experimental: IPSMA
Injection Peri Sphincter Myofibers Autologous
Other: Peri sphincter injection Autologous myofibers

The first step of the procedure consists to harvest a muscle fragment from the lower part of the rectus abdominis muscle of the abdomen approached by a short incision. Injectable myofiber cores will be prepared by hydrodissection of the muscle biopsy.

All myofibers cores will be suspended in autologous serum prepared by centrifugation before the incision.

During the second step of the procedure, the myofibers will be injected percutaneously into the peri-sphincter region under endoscopic and radiographic control.
