A Clinical Study of Outcomes in Foot and Ankle Bone Grafting Using map3® Cellular Allogeneic Bone Graft

A Radiographic and Clinical Outcomes Study Evaluating map3® Cellular Allogeneic Bone Graft in Patients Undergoing Bone Grafting in the Foot/Ankle

This is a single arm pilot study in patients requiring surgical fusion in the foot or ankle. Patients will receive map3® Cellular Allogeneic Bone Graft containing donor matched stem cells. This cohort study will enroll 24 patients total at 1 site. After subjects have signed an informed consent, the baseline visit and examinations will be completed. Patients will be evaluated at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, and 24 months after surgery.

Study Overview

• Status: Terminated
• Conditions: Foot Deformities, Acquired; Fracture of Foot; Disorder of Joint of Foot; Deformity of Bone
• Intervention / Treatment: Device: map3

Detailed Description

map3® Cellular Allogeneic Bone Graft provides the desired osteoconductive, osteoinductive and osteogenic potential capacities which are essential to optimal fracture healing when bone grafts are implanted. It offers viable MAPC-class cells on a scaffold comprised of demineralize bone matrix (DBM) and cortical cancellous chips. map3® Cellular Allogeneic Bone Graft is considered an allograft, and as such, is indicated for bone repair for orthopaedic indications where autograft is employed. The primary goal of this study is to evaluate the outcomes in bone grafts of the foot or ankle using a stem cell modified allograft (map3® Cellular Allogeneic Bone Graft). The study endpoints will be objectively determined via x-rays and CT scan to assess bony fusion, extremity evaluation using the AFAS and subjective patient scores for foot disabilities and quality of life.
