Safety & Effectiveness of Autologous Regenerative Cell Therapy on Pain & Inflammation of Osteoarthritis of the Shoulder

Study Purpose

This is a prospective open-label clinical study of 50 patients to determine safety and treatment potential of autologous cell therapy for pain and inflammation associated with Osteoarthritis of the shoulder. Follow-up will consist of a larger sample including 4,000 patients.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

Yes
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

More Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Patients with indication of Osteoarthritis. Can be from degeneration or chronic injury. 2. Patients range from 18-90 years of age. 3. Patients must be able to comply with treatment plan, laboratory tests and periodic interviews. 4. Patients with adequate renal function, Creatinine ≤ 1.5 mg/dl. 5. Patients with adequate cardiac and respiratory function. 6. Patients with adequate blood coagulation activity, PT(INR) < 1.5, APTT. 7. Patients must have adequate immune system function, with no known immunodeficiency disease. 8. Greater than 6 months shoulder pain with the index side (left or right shoulder).

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Neoplastic cancer within 5 years prior to screening, except for cutaneous basal cell or squamous cell cancer resolved by excision. 2. Presence of clinically significant acute or unstable cardiovascular, cerebrovascular (stroke).. 3. Diagnosis of a transient ischemic attack in the 6 months prior to screening. 4. Patients infected with hepatitis B, C or HIV. 5. Patients with Body Mass Index (BMI) > 40kg/m2. 6. Presence of active infection. 7. Any other illness, psychiatric disorder, alcohol or chemical dependence that in the opinion of the investigator would render a patient unsuitable to participate in the study. 8. Conditions/therapies/factors which could confound or interfere with the evaluation of pain/mobility including, but not limited to: 1. Treatments with strong opioid drugs in the previous 4 weeks for other pain rather than shoulder osteoarthritis. 2. Corticosteroid injection at treatment site within 1 month. 3. Consistent use of NSAIDs within 48 hours of procedure.

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT02844738
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Additional Details

This is a prospective open-label clinical study of 50 patients to determine safety and treatment potential of autologous cell therapy for pain and inflammation associated with Osteoarthritis of the shoulder. Follow-up will consist of a larger sample including 4,000 patients. Patients will be treated for Osteoarthritis (OA) of the shoulder due to degeneration or chronic injury. They will be treated with autologous Stromed obtained by the Adipose Ultrasonic Cell Recovery Unit (AUCRU) and Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) processed by the RegenLab (RegenKit BCT-3) PRP product each as direct injections to the affected joints. Patient outcomes will be tracked with laboratory tests for inflammation markers, the DASH and SPADI questionnaires and a follow up MRI at various endpoints to 6 months. SF-36 forms (a quality of life measure) and numerical ratings scales (NRS) will also be used to assess safety and efficacy of treatment, as well as any reduction in patient medication and/or delay in pending shoulder planning/replacement therapy.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

Experimental: StroMed + platelet rich plasma (PRP)

Because no enzymes or drugs are added with this mechanical process, the resulting (StroMed) cell concentrate still contains the extra-cellular matrix. In addition, the cells have not been altered by manipulation with enzymes or culturing. This autologous, cell concentrate is of minimal risk to the patient with no artificial ingredients added. Additional treatments with Platelet Rich Plasma processed by the RegenLab (RegenKit BCT-3) PRP product and by direct injection to affected joint.

Interventions

Biological: - [StroMed + platelet rich plasma (PRP)]

Patients will be treated with autologous StroMed obtained by the Adipose Ultrasonic Cell Recovery Unit and Platelet Rich Plasma processed by the RegenLab (RegenKit BCT-3) PRP product each as direct injections to the affected joints at the time of initial treatment. Thereafter the affected joints will be treated as direct injections to the joint with Platelet Rich Plasma processed by the RegenLab (RegenKit BCT-3) PRP product. Day 0 [StroMed + platelet rich plasma (PRP)], Days 7 and 14 [PRP]
