Filter by:Adipose-derived stem cells have properties of differentiation to various types of cells, immunomodulatory effects. adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) show also low immunogenicity. Anterogen has developed ANTG-ASC(Autologous ASC) which has shown good efficacy and safety in Phase I and II study on the patients with Crohn's fistula. However, Crohn's patients are sometimes not fat enough to extract fat tissue for culturing ASCs. Therefore the investigators have planned to study allogenic ASCs for safety and efficacy in patients with Crohn's fistula.
This facility-based, multi-center randomized controlled trial (RCT) will test the non-inferiority of short-term (7 day) urethral catheterization compared to longer-term (14 day) urethral catheterization in terms of predicting fistula repair breakdown three months following urinary fistula repair surgery. The study will be conducted among 507 women with simple fistula presenting at 8 study sites in Sub-Saharan Africa for fistula repair surgery.
Newly formed dialysis fistulae can often fail, and failure is usually due to narrowing of the blood vessels. Methods of detecting narrowing are available and, more importantly, can detect narrowings before a fistula fails. It is not known whether treating these narrowings will actually improve fistula survival or if the majority can be left alone. we wish to see if we can detect such narrowings with ultrasound scanning and if early detection and treatment improves patient outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate, in patients treated with adalimumab, the efficacy of proctological surgery in anoperineal fistula healing after the removal of seton drain.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of topically applied heparin in comparison to placebo on suitability of newly constructed primary arteriovenous fistulas in patients planned for haemodialysis at 7th week (± 1 week) after first study drug administration.
The purpose of this study is to determine safety and efficacy of eASCs (expanded adult stem cells) for treatment of complex perianal fistulas in patients with Crohn's disease.
The purpose of this study is to asses the safety and efficacy of adipose-derived adult stem cells from healthy donnors for treatment of complex perianal fistulas in Crohn's disease.
The main objective of this study is to evaluate and compare the primary patency rate at 12 months in a group of hemodialysis patients operated on by cutting balloon and in a group of hemodialysis patients operated by conventional balloon.
The investigators recently proposed a new hypothesis on the pathogenesis of mammillary fistulae (MF) suggesting that occlusion of hair follicles by keratinous plugging may relevantly contribute to the development of MF. The investigators believe that the pathogenesis of MF mimics the behaviour of hidradenitis suppurative, as both clinical entities manifest themselves as a chronic, suppurative and recurrent inflammatory process. This new proposal has led to the present suggestion of a therapeutic alternative for MF.
Mesenchymal stem cells derived from adipose tissue are pluripotent to differentiate into myocytes, adipocytes or others. They have an immunosuppressive activity. Complex perianal fistula is difficult to cure and easy to relapse. Autologous adipose stem cells have shown efficacy and safety on Crohn's fistula in phase 1 study. Based on these results, the investigators would apply autologous adipose stem cells on complex perianal fistula to evaluate their efficacy and safety.
