AdMSCs Trial Summary

This trial is testing a new arthritis drug on 300 people with osteoarthritis in their knees, hips, or shoulders. The subjects will be evaluated for disease severity using established measurement tools.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with osteoarthritis in knees, hips, or shoulders confirmed by X-rays and physical exams. Participants must have their own AdMSCs banked at Celltex, having cleared tests for HIV, syphilis, Hepatitis B and C. They should be able to follow the study procedures and provide informed consent.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial studies the effects of Autologous Adipose Tissue-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (AdMSCs) on osteoarthritis. It's a phase 2 study with six groups: one control and one treatment group for each joint category (knees, hips, shoulders), assessing pain relief and improved joint function.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions related to stem cell therapy such as inflammation at injection site or allergic reactions to culture components like BSA or DMSO used in AdMSC preparation.

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Any organ damage or safety concerns determined by SMAC 20 blood test.
the frequency and nature of adverse events occurring during the study based on the annualized rate of all AdMSC-associated adverse events (AEs) in all subjects.
Secondary outcome measures
Change of Constant shoulder score (CSS, 0 is the worst and 100 is the best) from the baseline for OA-shoulder patients
Change of Harris Hip Score (HHS, 0 is the worst and 100 is the best) from the baseline for OA-hip patients
Change of Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS, 0 is the worst and 100 is the best) from the baseline for OA-hip patients
+4 more
Other outcome measures
Number of patient achieve Image (X-ray or MRI) improvement above 30%, 50% and 70% from the baseline

Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Phase 2 Arm 5 - OA ShoulderExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
50 subjects receive two doses of 2.0-2.86 x 10^6 cells/kg on days 0 and 6 via intravenous infusion. On day 3, each subject will receive a single dose of 1.0-2.86 x 10^6 cells/kg via intra-articular injection into the injured joint.
Group II: Phase 2 Arm 3 - OA HipExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
50 subjects receive two doses of 2.0-2.86 x 10^6 cells/kg on days 0 and 6 via intravenous infusion. On day 3, each subject will receive a single dose of 1.0-2.86 x 10^6 cells/kg via intra-articular injection into the injured joint.
Group III: Phase 2 Arm 1 - OA KneeExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
50 subjects receive two doses of 2.0-2.86 x 10^6 cells/kg on days 0 and 6 via intravenous infusion. On day 3, each subject will receive a single dose of 1.0-2.86 x 10^6 cells/kg via intra-articular injection into the injured joint.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What are the goals that this team of researchers is hoping to achieve?

"The primary outcome for this study, which will be monitored over the course of 12 months, is tracking and assessing the rate of adverse events related to annualized Allogeneic Mesenchymal Stem Cells (AdMSC). Additionally, this trial will measure secondary outcomes such as changes in joint images from baseline levels (using X-rays or MRI), change in Knee Society Score from baseline levels for patients with osteoarthritis in their knees, and change in Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score from baseline levels for patients with osteoarthritis in their knees."

Answered by AI

Has the FDA cleared Celltex-derived mesenchymal stem cells for therapeutic use?

"Because there is only data supporting safety and no efficacy, our team has given Celltex- AdMSCs a score of 2."

Answered by AI

Are volunteers still being accepted for this experiment?

"This study is no longer recruiting patients, as indicated on clinicaltrials.gov. This particular trial was first posted on September 25th, 2022 and last updated on May 3rd, 2022; however, there are other 774 studies that are still enrolling patients."
