BIOlogic Augmented Repair of Complex Anal Fistula Using Acellular Matrix and/or Autologous Platelet-rich...

Anal Fistula

The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical effectiveness of augmenting surgical repair of complex anal fistula using autologous PRP and/or micronized acellular porcine urinary bladder matrix (UBM) to usual surgical care alone to prevent fistula recurrence or improve HRQoL, to compare the effects of augmenting surgical repair of complex anal fistula using autologous PRP and/or micronized acellular porcine urinary bladder matrix on early postoperative pain and fecal continence and to assess the cost utility of augmented complex fistula repair relative to usual surgical care

Multicenter Study for Diagnosis and Treatment of Perianal Abscesses

Perianal AbscessAnal Fistulas1 more

Drainage of perianal abscesses is a well established treatment. Traditionally its been done in general anesthesia after the swelling has been localised its been drained with a knife. After surgical intervention complications can occur with recidivism, chronic fistulas that go from the anal to the skin and sometimes the anal sphincter is damaged which can cause problems with incontinence. Through ultrasound the abscess is opened under more controlled forms with a better visual overview. This is a new technique that has not been tested in larger studies. The aim with ultrasound-drainage as with traditional incision to drain the abscess so that the infected area can heal. The hypothesis is a reduction of recurrences and formation of fistulas with the use of 3D ultrasonography.

Oral Antibiotics for Anal Abscess

Anal FistulaAnal Abscess

BACKGROUND Anal abscess and perianal fistula is a high prevalence disorder in general population that affect adult patients on young ages, affecting them significantly their social and quality of life. There is clinical evidence that the origin of most perianal fistulas (60%) is with an episode one year before of a perianal abscess. In fact, the established cryptoglandular hypothesis considered the origin of anal fistula, a chronic infectious disease starting on a clinical episode of an anal glands abscess. However, controversy exists regarding the role of antibiotics in the development of anal fistula after incision and drainage of perianal abscess. Nowadays, only two single-centre randomized controlled trials has been published addressing this issue, with inconclusive results. The MAIN OBJECTIVE of the study is to examine the clinical benefit of antibiotic therapy in patients with a perianal abscess, to avoid the development of a perianal fistula. METHODOLOGY We designed a prospective, multicentre double-blind placebo trial to analyse the clinical benefit of a course of antibiotics after perianal abscess drainage to diminish the probability of development of perianal fistula in the follow up of patients. Patients with anal abscess will be allocated randomly either to receive 7 days of oral metronidazole/ciprofloxacin in addition to their standard care or to receive standard care and placebo, after they will be discharged from the hospital. Patients will be followed clinically at different intervals during one year in order to know if they develop anal fistula. Also a quality of life assessment at the end of the study will be evaluated. EXPECTED RESULTS We expected that patients allocated to antibiotic treatment would develop a significant less anal fistulas in their follow-up with a related significant better quality of life. Thus, a change on standard of care led by our group, may be achieved.

Seeded Cells on Matrix Plug Treating Crohn's Perianal Fistulas (STOMP-II)

Perianal FistulaCrohn's Disease

A Phase II study to assess the safety and efficacy of AVB-114 in treatment of complex Crohn's perianal fistulas in subjects with quiescent rectal disease and whose fistula has failed to respond to biologic or conventional therapy. Combined remission of treated perianal fistula in the investigational treatment arm will be compared to a standard of care control arm. The study has 2 parts: Part 1: All required study visits for subjects who initially receive study treatment and those who receive standard of care therapy (control arm). Part 2: Subjects who are enrolled in the control arm may receive treatment with AVB-114 following week 36. Those subjects then will be followed as specified in the clinical protocol.

A Study of Darvadstrocel for Treating Complex Perianal Fistulas in Children and Teenagers With Crohn's...

Crohn's DiseaseComplex Perianal Fistula

A perianal fistula is an abnormal passageway that develops between the rectum and the skin near the anus. The fistula is considered complex if it branches into several openings or an abscess is also present. The main aim of this study is to learn if complex perianal fistulas in children and teenagers close after treatment with darvadstrocel. 2 to 3 weeks before treatment with darvadstrocel, each participant will have surgery to clean the fistula and to drain any abscesses. On the day of treatment, each participant will have the fistula cleaned and will receive an injection of darvadstrocel near the fistula, under anesthetic. For up to 1 year after treatment, participants will regularly visit the clinic for follow-up. The fistula will be examined and any side effects from the treatment will be recorded. Participants will have an MRI at one clinic visit (about 24 weeks after treatment).

E-CEL UVEC as an Adjunct Cell Therapy for Treatment of Anal Fistulas

Anal Fistula

The purpose of this study is to determine if endothelial cells derived from human umbilical vein are safe for use in conjunction with fistulotomy for the treatment of simple anal fistulas. Endothelial cells are a special kind of cell in the body that line the inside surface of blood vessels. The goal of the study is to evaluate the preliminary safety of human umbilical vein cells in anal fistula healing.

This randomized and placebo controlled study investigates the efficacy of injections with freshly harvested autologous adipose tissue in CD patients with complex perianal fistulas refractory to standard surgical and/or medical treatment. 140 CD patients will be included and randomized to either treatment with freshly harvested autologous adipose tissue or placebo (saline). Primary outcome measures are clinical healing 6 months after treatment evaluated by clinical examination and pelvic MRI.
