Acute-On-Chronic Liver Failure Clinical Trial
Official title:
Clinical Research of Human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cell Transplantation for The Treatment of Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure
This study is a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled multicenter clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell (UC-MSC) transplantation for the treatment of acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF). UC-MSC therapy may improve the clinical outcomes of patients with ACLF. The trial would provide scientific evidence for UC-MSC transplantation as a potential treatment for ACLF.
Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) has been proposed to define a distinct syndrome which is characterized by an intense systemic inflammatory response, single- or multiple organ system failures, and high 28-day mortality. Current treatments for liver failure are still limited, and liver transplantation remains the only available approach to improve survival but is restricted by a shortage of organ resources, rejection after transplantation, and heavy financial costs. In the past decade, a series of new applications based on mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy have been studied as an alternative interventional method for chronic liver diseases. This randomized double-blind placebo-controlled multicenter clinical trial is aimed at determining the safety and clinical efficacy of UC-MSC transfusions in ACLF patients. A total of 150 ACLF patients would be enrolled,100patients would be assigned to the MSC intervention group and the other 50 patients would be assigned to the placebo control group. This trial is two-stage randomized designed. At the first stage, the patients would be randomized into two groups, the placebo short control group would receive standard medical treatment plus 3 times placebo (at week0, week1 and week2), while the MSC short treatment group would receive standard medical treatment plus 3 times hUC-MSC (1.5×10^8, Peripheral IV, at week0, week1 and week2). The two groups would be followed up for 2 weeks, and unblinding would be conducted at week4. At the second stage, the survived patients of the MSC short treatment group would be further randomized and blinded into another two groups. The MSC Prolonged treatment group would receive another 2 times hUC-MSC (1.5×10^8, Peripheral IV, at week4 and week5), while the MSC Prolonged control group would receive 2 times placebo (at week4 and week5). Transplantation free survival rate and incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events would be the primary outcomes, and other outcomes such as international normalized ratio (INR), total bilirubin (TBIL, mg/dL), serum albumin (ALB, g/L), blood urea nitrogen (BUN, mmol/l), the model for end-stage liver disease(MELD) score and child-turcotte-pugh(CTP) score would also be measured. ;
