Stem Cells Treatment for Extremely Complex Fistulae (HULPCIR)

A Phase IIa Clinical Trial to Study the Treatment of the Extremely Complex and Conventional Treatment Resistant Perianal Fistulae With Autologous Stem Cells From Lipoaspirate

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the practicability of the autologous e-ASC (Autologous Stem Cells) for the treatment of extremely complex and treatment resistant perianal fistulae.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Signed informed consent
