About this study

Official title: A Pilot Study of Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Treatment of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome in Patients With Malignancies

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn about the safety of giving mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to patients who have ARDS. Researchers also want to learn if these cells can help control ARDS when given with drugs that are routinely used to treat ARDS.

In this study, participants will receive 1 infusion of MSCs.

This is an investigational study. MSC infusions for the treatment of ARDS is investigational.

Up to 20 patients will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at MD Anderson.

Read the detailed description

The MSCs:

MSCs are a type of stem cell that can be removed from bone marrow and grown into many different cell types that can be used to treat cancer and other diseases. The MSCs used in this study were collected from healthy donors and are stored and grown in a laboratory at MD Anderson. The product you will receive is from a healthy donor that is not related to you.

MSC Administration:

If you are found to be eligible to take part in this study, you will receive MSCs by vein over about 1-2 hours 1 time on Day 1.

Study Visits:

On Days 1 and 3:

  • Blood (about 2 tablespoons) will be drawn for routine tests, to check your heart, kidney, and liver function, and for biomarker testing.
  • Blood (about ½ teaspoon) will be drawn to check the oxygen level in your blood.

On Days 14 and 30:

°Blood (about 2 tablespoons) will be drawn for routine tests, to check your heart, kidney, and liver function, and for biomarker testing.

On Days 30 and 60:

°You will be checked for possible reactions to your treatment, including graft-versus-host disease (GVHD - a reaction of the donor's immune cells against your body). This will be checked by physical exam, by the doctor reviewing your side effects, and blood from standard of care blood draws.

Length of Study:

Your participation on this study will end after the Day 60 study visit. You will be taken off study early if you are not able to receive the MSC infusion(s), if intolerable side effects occur, if the doctor thinks it is in your best interest, or if you are unable to follow study directions.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Adverse Events of Participants Treated with Allogeneic Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells (hMSCs) With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARD)

    Adverse Events determined by CTCAE version 4.

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Clinical Improvement of Participants Treated with Allogeneic Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells (hMSCs) With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARD)

    Clinical improvement defined as decreased mechanical ventilation after the mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) infusion.

    Measured: Baseline, 7 days and 30 days

  2. Improvement in PF or S/F Ratio of Participants Treated with Allogeneic Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells (hMSCs) With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARD)

    An improvement in PF or S/F ratio defined as decreased mechanical ventilatory requirement.

    Measured: Baseline, 7 days and 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) in people with Blood And Marrow Transplantation and Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

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 7 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 10 Apr 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this 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.

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?

Adverse Events of Participants Treated with Allogeneic Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells (hMSCs) With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARD) (time frame: 30 days). 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 10 Apr 2020.
