About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Liver Cirrhosis, Biliary focused on measuring Autologous bone marrow Transplantation, biliary atresia, Kasai's operation, liver cirrhosis

Eligibility Criteria

1 Year - 15 Years (Child)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Children were diagnosed with Liver Cirrhosis Due to biliary atresia after Kasai's operation
  • 1 year old or older
  • Patients with manifestation of cirrhosis after Kasai's operation: hepatomegaly, congestive splenomegaly, elevated liver enzymes, Esophageal Varices (based on Endoscopic Diagnosis), cirrhosis (based on liver biopsy)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Under 1 year old patients
  • Epilepsy
  • Coagulation disorders
  • Allergy to anesthetic agents
  • Severe health conditions such as cancer, failure of heart, lung, liver or kidney
  • Active infections
  • Severe psychiatric disorders

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Autologous BMMC transplantation

Arm Description

Stem cell transplantations include 2 administrations of autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells via the hepatic artery at baseline and 6 months afterward

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Assess the changes in cholestasis
Using Bilirubin (total, direct and indirect) (units: mg/dL) to measure the changes in cholestasis
Assess the changes in Liver function
Using AST (Aspart transaminase) and ALT (Alanin transaminase) (units: U/L), GGT (Gamma GT) (units: UI/L), and Bilirubin (units: mg/dL) to measure the changes in Liver function
Assess the changes in level of cirrhosis
Using PELD score (according to the suggestion of The Liver and Intestinal Organ Transplantation Committee in 2009). PELD is calculated based on three indicators: albumin (g / dL), bilirubin (units: mg / dL) and INR (international normalized ratio). Formula: PELD = 10 * (0.48 * ln(Serum Bilirubin) + 1.857 * ln(INR) - 0.687 * ln(Albumin) + (0.436 if patient is less than 1 year old) + (0.667 if patient has growth failure)). Evaluate the result: If PELD <10: good results If 10 <PELD <15: average results If PELD> 15: bad results Albumin (Unit: g / dL), bilirubin (units: mg / dL) and INR (international normalized ratio).
Assess the changes in liver biopsy
Liver biopsy, in combination with history and physical examination data, is a powerful clinical tool for diagnosing and treating liver disease to evaluate the changes in liver biopsy
