Determined by changes in vital signs, electrocardiographic, biochemical, hematological, and urinalysis measures, and reported adverse events
Change in Leg Ulcer
Rate and extent of leg ulcer wound healing as measured by change in wound surface area Ulcer diameter will be recorded
Secondary Outcome Measures
Numeric pain intensity scale (0-10)
Change in Sickle Cell Disease leg ulcer wound pain scores as measured by a 10-point scale (analogic visual scale) and relative to non-wound site pain scores
Ulcer Healing
Defined as a Decrease in Ulcer Area by at Least 25% of the Initial Area Ulcer diameter will be recorded
Quality of Life
Change in quality of life as well as other indicators of patient comfort and well-being

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of autologous bone marrow stem cell implantation for the treatment of leg ulcer in adult patients with sickle cell disease.
Detailed Description
Implantation of bone marrow mononuclear cells, including endothelial progenitor cells and mesenchymal stromal cells, into leg ulcers has been shown to improve wound healing.
In the present study the safety and efficacy of autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells implantation will be investigated in patients with chronic leg ulcers. Forty cases will be enrolled. Improvement in the pain, rate and extent of leg ulcer wound healing as measured by change in wound surface area will be evaluated until one year.
