A Phase I Study of iPS Cell Generation From Patients With COPD

September 27, 2022 updated by: Dennis Wigle, Mayo Clinic
As part of the long-term goal of successfully implementing tissue regeneration strategies in an individualized manner for patients with thoracic diseases including, but not limited to: cystic fibrosis, pulmonary fibrosis and pulmonary hypertension, the investigators will assess the feasibility of collecting skin biopsies from patients undergoing surgery for thoracic disease, culturing skin fibroblasts from the biopsy, and reprogramming these skin fibroblasts into induced pluripotent cells.

How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Basic Science
  • Allocation: N/A
  • Interventional Model: Single Group Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Other: Skin Biopsy
Biopsy samples will be taken as a 2mm x 2cm excision of a wedge of skin at the edge of the incision during your surgery at the Mayo Clinic Rochester. Such excisions are frequently done as part of routine skin closure for optimal skin cosmesis following the surgical procedure.

Feasibility
Time Frame: 1 year
As part of the long-term goal of successfully implementing tissue regeneration strategies in an individualized manner for patients with thoracic diseases including, but not limited to: cystic fibrosis, pulmonary fibrosis and pulmonary hypertension, we will assess the feasibility of collecting skin biopsies from patients undergoing surgery for thoracic disease, culturing skin fibroblasts from the biopsy, and reprogramming these skin fibroblasts into induced pluripotent cells. Markers of induced pluripotent phenotype will be utilized to assess successful reprogramming.
