About this study

Official title: Autologous Adipose Derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cell Transplantation in Patients With Idiopathic or Drug Induced Premature Ovarian Failure

The primary ovarian insufficiency (premature ovarian failure, premature ovarian insufficiency, premature menopause) is a hypergonadotropic hypogonadism, that failure of the ovarian function in woman younger than 40 years. Fat derived stem cells are mainly mesenchymal stem cells and found to be effective treatment in joint and bone regeneration.

We are planning to investigate the effectiveness of adipose stem cell on ovarian tissue regeneration for patients with premature ovarian failure.

Read the detailed description

The primary ovarian insufficiency (premature ovarian failure, premature ovarian insufficiency, premature menopause) is a hypergonadotropic hypogonadism, that failure of the ovarian function in woman younger than 40 years. Ovary is a important organ of reproduction as well as endocrine organ that secretes estrogen and progesterone to stimulate the endometrium and other organs. The main features of are sex hormone deficiency, amenorrhea, infertility, and elevated serum gonadotropins.

This condition occurs in approximately 1% of women and it has significant psychological and physical consequences in those patients.

The current management involves hormone replacement therapy and infertility treatment using egg donors.

Stem cells are the foundation cells for every organ, tissue, and cell in the body. They are undifferentiated cells that do not yet have specific function. Under proper conditions, they begin to develop into specialized tissue and organs. Fat derived stem cells are mainly mesenchymal stem cells and found to be effective treatment in joint and bone regeneration.

This study is an open-label investigation of the efficacy of injection of autologous adipose derived stem cells into the ovarian stroma of patients with premature ovarian failure. Totally 10 women with POI will be recruited in this study after the written informed consent. Diagnosis will be based mainly on history taking, physical examination, and laboratory investigations. Laboratory investigations will include serum follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), serum estrogen measurement and serum AMH. The typical FSH in POI patients is over 40mIU/ml (post-menopausal range). Subjects will be enrolled based on specific inclusion/exclusion criteria and will be evaluated at regular post-transplant intervals.

The fat derived stem cell will be transplanted by a reproductive gynecologist who does routine ovarian puncture. Subjects will be monitored frequently for a total of one year after ADSCs injection. For the safety of patients, the stem cell will be injected in one ovary only and the other ovary will be spared.

Sample of 150-250 ml aspirated from the fat will be processed according to the manufacturers guide and totally 5 million of ADSCs will be injected into the ovaries under guidance of transvaginal sonography. Endometrial fractional biopsy will be taken, stained with H\&E stain. Participants will be followed up monthly for a period of 6 months by hormonal (FSH, LH, E2, AMH), clinical (resuming menstruation), US (folliculometry).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing stem cell therapy in people with Premature Ovarian Failure, run by Mongolian National University of Medical Sciences at 1 site in Mongolia.

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 8 inclusion and 12 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Nov 2023. 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 Mongolia. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Khongorzul Batchuluun, Ph.D (976-72116389, khongorzul.bat@mnums.edu.mn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Resumption of menses (12 months) (time frame: 12 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06132542, which also lists 10 linked publications.

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 15 Nov 2023.
