About this study

Official title: Role of Stem Cells, Platelet Rich Plasma and Combination of Them in Treatment of Scars

The Objectives of this randomized controlled trial aiming to establishing a protocol of post scar revision care and to Study the effect of PRP and/or Adipose derived Mesenchymal Stem cell injection in improvement of atrophic scar after scar revision.

Read the detailed description

Forty patients with atrophic scar since one to five years including 25 males and 15 females with ages ranging from ten to 35 years with main age of 22.68 will be divided into four groups each included ten patients. One group will be treated with scar revision only (control group or group I), 2nd group will be injected with PRP after scar revision, 3rd group will be injected with ADSCs after scar revision and the 4th group will be injected with a combination of PRP and ADSCs after scar revision. All groups were assisted pre-operative and six months post-operative. Complications, Scar width, Vancouver scar scale (VSS), surgeon assessment scar scale and patient assessment scar scale will be considered the outcome measurements.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Stem cellBiological

    Also called PRP

    after scar revision PRP is injected intradermally, also adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells

  • MSCsDevice

    Also called Stem cell and PRP

    manual separation of platelets rich plasma and undifferentiated mesenchymal stem cells

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Stem cell and MSCs in people with Atrophic Scar, run by Heba Mohamed Saad Eldien.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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 29 Aug 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

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?

Patient satisfaction (Patient Assessment Scar Scale) (time frame: 6 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 29 Aug 2017.
