Arm Label

Hip Decompression with lactated ringers

Hip Decompression with ADRC

Arm Description

Subjects will receive standard of care hip decompression along with an injection of approximately 5 mls. of lactated ringers.

Subjects in this arm will have Adipose Derived Regenerative Cells (ADRC)harvested through autologous liposuction and processed outside the body using The Celution 800/GP System (Cytori Therapeutics) before having approximately 5 mls. of ADRCs transplanted into the femoral head after standard of care hip decompression.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Safety, as measured by the type and number of serious adverse events related to Hip Decompression supplemented with autologous ADRC transplantation compared to Hip Decompression alone.

Serious adverse events will only include those that are determined to be related to the transplantation of ADRC and/or Hip Decompression.

Secondary Outcome Measures

In vitro laboratory metrics as measured by flow analysis as well as proliferation and differentiation potential of adipose and bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs).

These immunophenotypic characterizations will be correlated with MRI imaging data and patient reported outcomes.

Initial signals of efficacy as measured by MRI lesion volume quantification and patient reported outcome metrics.

Preoperative MRI, 1 and 2 year postoperative MRI osteonecrotic lesion volume size compared to quality of life and hip function scores. The five subscales include 10 items on pain, 5 items for symptoms (3 symptoms items, 2 stiffness items) 17 items for activities for daily living (ADLs), 4 items for sports and recreations, and 4 items for hip related quality of life. Scoring: Each question contains five answer choices ranging from never (score of 0) to extreme (score of 4). A normalized score is calculated for each subscale with 0 indicating extreme symptoms and 100 representing no symptoms.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary

This randomized clinical trial aims to determine if cells from a patient's own adipose tissue is safe and capable of helping regenerate the femoral head in patients with osteonecrosis. The standard of care is known as hip decompression which simply removes dead tissue from the femoral head and creates a new cavity to be filled in by healthy bone. This trial will use hip decompression in one hip and hip decompression supplemented with adipose derived regenerative cells in patients with osteonecrosis in both of their hips.

Detailed Description

Preclinical and clinical data suggest that ADRC may serve as a safe and efficacious adjuvant agent for the treatment of ON. However, to the authors knowledge no RCT in the United States has formally evaluated safety of ADRC in the setting of ON. Therefore, the primary endeavor of this Phase I pilot study will be to evaluate safety of ADRC for pre-collapse ON of the femoral head. The Celution 800/GP System (Cytori Therapeutics, San Diego, USA) for preparation of ADRC from lipoaspirate is currently being evaluated in FDA approved clinical trials including an orthopedic indication (osteoarthritis). In addition, the device has a CE Mark registration in Europe and Class I approval in Japan. As such, it serves as a known platform that produces a clinical grade product for human use. Other devices on the market process lipoaspirate by either mechanical, washing, or centrifugation methods; however, the remaining components of original adipose tissue are significant and impair the regenerative process. Derivation of relatively pure ADRC has been achieved by few devices and the Cytori Celution 800/GP System is the only one to our knowledge with a sufficient safety and efficacy track record enabling multiple investigational device exemption (IDE) approvals. The reagent used (Celase®) is of a clinical and pharmacologic grade for use in humans. The production of Celase is free of mammalian products.
