Autologous Stem Cells for Urinary Incontinence: Single Patient Compassionate Use

November 13, 2016 updated by: Kenneth Peters, MD
Determine safety and effectiveness of the technique using autologous stem cells in the treatment of urinary incontinence in one male subject.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Autologous stem cells will be obtained from the subject by needle biopsy, sent to a lab for multiplication and after about 6 weeks time will be injected into the subjects urethra.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Study-Related Adverse Events
Time Frame: 6 months
6 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Quality of Life (QOL) Described by the Patient's Response on the Patient Global Assessment of Severity (PGI-S) Questionnaire
Time Frame: Baseline and 6 months
The PGI-S is comprised of two questions. Question 1 asks the patient to describe how their urinary tract condition is now. Responses are 1 Normal, 2 Mild, 3 Moderate and 4 Severe. Question 2 asks the patient "If you were to spend the rest of your life with your urinary condition just the way it is now, how would you feel about that?" Responses are 1 Delighted, 2 Pleased, 3 Mostly Satisfied, 4 Mixed, 5 Mostly Dissatisfied, 6 Unhappy and 7 Terrible.
Baseline and 6 months
Quality of Life (QOL) Described by the Patient's Response on the Global Response Assessment (GRA)
Time Frame: 6 months
The GRA measures overall improvement with therapy. The patient's response describes their current condition compared to before they were treated. Responses are: 1 Markedly Improved, 2 Moderately Improved, 3 Slightly Improved, 4 No Change, 5 Slightly Worse, 6 Moderately Worse, and 7 Markedly Worse.
6 months
Quality of Life (QOL) Described by the Patient's Response on the Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I)
Time Frame: 6 months
The PGI-I is a global index used to rate the response of a condition to a therapy. The patient's response describes their current condition compared to before they were treated. Responses are: 1 Very Much Better, 2 Much Better, 3 A Little Better, 4 No Change, 5 A Little Worse, 6 Much Worse, and 7 Very Much Worse.
