Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

ADSCs administration

Arm Description

Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease will be treated with a single dose of autologous adipose derived stem cells. Stem cells will be isolated using standard Lipoaspiration procedure under sterile conditions.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Safety of adipose derived stem cells (ADSC) in Patient with COPD
Safety/tolerability of Adipose Derived Stem Cell (ADSC) in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) during the twelve-month study period as determined by the incidence and severity of of adverse events.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Efficacy of ADSC in improving Shortness of Breath (SOB)
The change (decrease) in patient Shortness Of Breath (SOB) as compared to baseline, measured in breath per minute, after administration of adipose derived stem cells (ADSC)
Efficacy of ADSC In Pulmonary Function Test (PFTs)
The change (improvement) in Pulmonary Function Test (PFTs) after administration of adipose derived stem cells (ADSC) as compared to baseline.
Efficacy of adipose derived stem cell in 6 MWT
Improvement in patient ability to walk as measure using a 6 minute walk test ( in meter) as compared to baseline
Efficacy of adipose derived stem cells in patient's perceived exertion.
The change from baseline in patient perceived exertion as measure using the modified BORG scale or Rate of perceive exertion (RPE) which ranges from 1(no perceived exertion at all) to 10 (maximum perceived exertion)
Efficacy in Quality of life using George's Respiratory Questionnaire
The change from baseline in patient quality of life as measure using the George's Respiratory Questionnaire
Efficacy in Quality of life using the Chronic Respiratory questionnaires
The change from baseline in patient quality of life as measure using the Chronic Respiratory Questionnaire

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is: 1.- to assess the safety and tolerability of autologous adipose derived stem cells (aADSC) administered intravenously in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and 2.- to assess if this therapy results in less decrease of lung function parameters (FEV1, FEV1/FVC and 6 min walking distance) compared with a control baseline of 6 weeks. Patients will be followed up for 12 months after the therapy.
Detailed Description
STUDY DESIGN This is a Phase I open- label single-dose study in subjects with significant COPD. This is an expanded safety cohort. The investigators will enroll a minimum of 30 subjects. 6 week data of FEV1, FEV1/FVC, DLCO and 6 min walking distance values will be collected in all patients who are enrolled in the study (Baseline and 6 weeks after). Prior to the stem cell treatment, the patient will be assessed for 6 weeks by pulmonary function tests and 6 min walk tests. Then, patients will receive the infusion of stromal vascular fraction cells containing the aADSC (single intravenous dose). The standard therapy of COPD patients will not be interrupted during the duration of the study. Safety will be monitored on an ongoing basis, and an interim safety review will be conducted by the Investigator(s) and Sponsor after the first 20 patients have been enrolled and treated.
