Clinical Trial: Treatment of Chronic Leg Ulcers With Autologous Stromal Vascular Fraction
Study Status: Recruiting
Recruit Status: Recruiting
Study Type: Interventional
Official Title: Treatment of Chronic Leg Ulcers With Autologous Stromal Vascular Fraction
Brief Summary: Chronic leg ulcers are associated with decreased quality of life and an increased mortality. In many cases these ulcers are treated conservatively and the healing time can be several months. In this open randomized clinical trial we will examine if we can accelerate wound healing when using autologous stromal vascular fraction as an adjunct to standard wound care.
Detailed Summary:
Chronic leg ulcers are associated with decreased quality of life and an increased mortality. In many cases these ulcers are treated conservatively and the healing time can be several months. In this open randomized clinical trial we will examine if we can accelerate wound healing when using autologous stromal vascular fraction (SVF) as an adjunct to standard wound care.
The plan is to include 30 patients with arterial or arteriovenous chronic leg ulcers and these are randomized in two groups of which one receives standard wound care only and the other group receives autologous stromal vascular fraction treatment in addition to standard wound care.
Sponsor: Odense University Hospital
Current Primary Outcome: Change in wound size [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
Original Primary Outcome: Same as current
Current Secondary Outcome:
- Distal blood pressure measurement [ Time Frame: 6 months ]Change in distal blood pressure measurement before and 6 months after treatment
- Transcutaneous oxygen tension [ Time Frame: 6 months ]Change in transcutaneous oxygen tension around the wound before and 6 months after treatment.
- Treatment-related adverse events [ Time Frame: 6 months ]Monitoring of any side effects or complications related to intervention
Original Secondary Outcome: Same as current
