Adipose Mesenchymal Stem Cells (AMSC) for Treatment of Ulcerative Colitis (AMSC_UC)

August 31, 2020 updated by: peng yan, Liaocheng People's Hospital

A Phase I/II Randomized, Controlled, Clinical Trial for Assessment of the Safety and Efficacy of Allogeneic Adipose Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Moderate to Severe Ulcerative Colitis Patients

Ulcerative colitis is a form of inflammatory bowel disease characterized by diffuse inflammation of the colonic mucosa. It affects the rectum and extends proximally along a variable length of the colon. Ulcerative colitis is a chronic condition with a relapsing remitting course. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a subset of adult stem cells residing in many tissues, including bone marrow (BM), adipose tissue, umbilical cord blood. Recent experimental findings have shown the ability of MSCs to home to damaged tissues and to produce paracrine factors with anti-inflammatory properties, potentially resulting in reduction of inflammation and functional recovery of the damaged tissues. The purpose of our study is to evaluate safety and efficacy of the intracolonic injection by using a colonoscope of allogeneic adipose MSCs in patients with moderate active ulcerative colitis.

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

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
Change From Baseline in Endoscopic Score (as Measured by Ulcerative Colitis Endoscopic Index of Severity)
Time Frame: Baseline, 8 weeks
Ulcerative Colitis Endoscopic Index of Severity (UCEIS) is defined as Ulcerative Colitis Endoscopic Index of Severity, with higher scores indicating more severe disease
Baseline, 8 weeks

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
Time Frame
Change from Baseline in clinical response (CDAI points)
Time Frame: Baseline, 8 weeks
CDAI is defined as Clinical Disease Activity Index
Baseline, 8 weeks
To evaluate the quality of life index, Short Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (SIBDQ)
Time Frame: Baseline, 8 weeks
The Short Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (SIBDQ) is a health-related quality of life (HRQoL) tool measuring physical, social, and emotional status. It includes 10-item form of questions. Each question is scored on a Likert scale from 1 (worst) to 7 (best), scores from each item are summed to produce a total score, increased more than 3 scores were considered remission.
Baseline, 8 weeks
Histologic Evaluation of Ulcerative Colitis
Time Frame: Baseline, 8 weeks
A 10 to 20 centimeter (cm) biopsy sample of inflamed mucosal tissue was taken from the worst affected area and scored using the Riley Index. The Riley Index is a histologic scoring system for the assessment of the activity and severity of ulcerative colitis, ranging from 0 to 24. It consists of 6 histologic features (acute inflammatory cell infiltrate, crypt abscesses, mucin depletion, surface epithelial integrity, chronic inflammatory cell infiltrate, and crypt architectural irregularities), all scored on a 4-point scale (higher scores indicate more severe disease).
Baseline, 8 weeks
Immune response in ulcerative colitis.
Time Frame: Baseline, 1, 4, 8 weeks
A number of soluble mediators are detected, including proinflammatory cytokines (TNF, IFN-γ, IL-6.) and anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-10, IL-4.).
Baseline, 1, 4, 8 weeks
Incidence of Treatment Adverse.
Time Frame: Baseline, 1, 4, 8 weeks
An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant
Baseline, 1, 4, 8 weeks
