September 23, 2019 updated by: Cytori Therapeutics

Safety and Feasibility of Adipose Derived Regenerative Cells (ADRCs) in the Treatment of Deep Partial Thickness and Full Thickness Thermal Wounds (RELIEF)

The primary objective of the protocol is to evaluate preliminary safety and feasibility of ADRCs via intravenous delivery in the treatment of deep partial and full thickness thermal wounds.

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

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The RELIEF Trial is a prospective, open-label, parallel group, usual care controlled, multi-center randomized (2:1, active: usual care alone) safety and feasibility study targeting thermal burns. Subjects will have at least one deep partial or full thickness burn wounds of > 250 cm2 that is to be autografted with a split thickness meshed skin graft (STSG). Subjects randomized to ADRCs will undergo small volume fat harvest (100 to 150 mL) performed at initiation of general anesthesia for scheduled burn surgery followed by intravenous delivery of ADRCs within 4 hours following surgery. The lipoaspirate will be processed in the Celution® System to isolate and concentrate ADRCs.

Following informed consent and initial screening assessments, eligible subjects will undergo pre-operative testing. On the procedure day, subjects will be randomized to ADRCs (with usual care) or usual care alone. Low volume lipoharvest will only be performed on subjects randomized to ADRCs in order to obtain 100-150 mL lipoaspirate, which will then be transferred to the Celution® System for processing to isolate and concentrate ADRCs for same-day administration. All treatment will be delivered in a total volume of 10 mL which will be delivered by slow intravenous administration into a peripheral vein.

Following surgery, subjects will be evaluated at first dressing change, day 10 (±2) (only if wound dressing change planned) and weeks 2 (±3 days), 3 (±3 days), 4 (±3 days), 8 (±7 days), 12 (±14 days), 26 (±14 days), and 52(±21 days).

The 1st 5 subjects enrolled in active treatment will be observed for adverse events over a 7 day period. If no SAEs occur during that period, for that individual subject, the next subject enrolled in active treatment may be entered with the same 7 day observation period. The safety results of the first 5 subjects will be reviewed by the DMC and their evaluation will be used in conjunction with the clinical data collected to date, and if appropriate, to potentially remove the staggering approach to the study. Enrollment after the first 5 subjects may continue only after the DMC has completed its safety review and recommends continuation.

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

18 years to 65 years (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

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.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Feasibility of obtain lipo suction with > 100mL adipose tissue, Feasibility if obtain 20 million ADRC
Time Frame: Procedure day only
Feasibility will be determined as 1) the ability to obtain > 100 mL adipose tissue during the liposuction surgical procedure (up to one hour for the tissue harvesting procedure), 2) obtain ≥ 20 x 106 ADRCs confirmed by cell counting (up to 4 hours after the liposuction procedure), and 3) deliver the prepared cell dose to the subject within four hours after Celution device completed the process.
Procedure day only
Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events [Safety]
Time Frame: Throughout the whole 52 weeks trial evaluation period
Safety will be evaluated based on the incidence, type and seriousness of adverse events related to the IV administration of test substance as well as the low volume lipoharvest procedure. Adverse events will be assessed according to the NIH Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v4.0 for scale grading adverse events.
Throughout the whole 52 weeks trial evaluation period

Secondary Outcome Measures

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.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
