Arm Description

This is a single treatment group study. All patients will receive treatment of a stem cell coated fistula plug.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events (safety and toxicity)
Participants will have a health assessment and blood work done at each study visit to monitor for adverse events.

Secondary Outcome Measures

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of using an autologous mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) coated fistula plug in people with fistulizing Crohn's disease. Autologous means these cells to coat the plug come from the patient.
Detailed Description
The investigators propose to study the safety of autologous mesenchymal stromal cell transfer using a biomatrix (the Gore Bio-A Fistula Plug) in a Phase I study using a single dose of 20 million cells. 5 patients (age 12 to 17 years) with Crohn's perianal fistulas will be enrolled. Subjects will undergo standard adjuvant therapy including drainage of infection and placement of a draining seton. Six weeks post placement of the draining seton, the seton will be replaced with the MSC loaded Gore fistula plug as per current clinical practice. The subjects will be subsequently followed for fistula response and closure for 24 months. This is an autologous product derived from the patient and used only for the same patient.
