About this study

Official title: Study Phase I/II, Double Blind, Randomized, Comparing Two Groups to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Autologous Mesenchymal Stem Cells From Adipose Tissue (CMMAd) in the Treatment of the Faecal Incontinence

This is a clinical trial phase I/II, double blind, randomized to compare in two groups of patients to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the autologous mesenchymal stem cells from the adipose tissue (CMMAd) in the treatment of the faecal incontinence.

Read the detailed description

In the phase of recruitment, of 20 months of duration, there will be included 16 participants who will be randomized to one of the groups of intervention (8 patients group CMMAd / 8 patients group placebo). The phase of follow-up of every patient will be 12 months, though, provided that these patients are seen regularly in the study sites of the study, once concluded his follow-up will be continued to be able to obtain safety information and efficacy to 24 months.

Being tested
Infusion of mesenchymal stem cells from adipose tissue, Infusion of placebo

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Infusion of mesenchymal stem cells from adipose tissue in people with Faecal Incontinence, run by Andalusian Initiative for Advanced Therapies - Fundación Pública Andaluza Progreso y Salud at 4 sites in Spain.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 15 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Apr 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Serious Adverse Events (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Apr 2018.
