Brief Summary

A total of 90 patients suffering from end stage-IV Fontaine /CLI and diabetic foot with an ulcerated limb in whom all previous therapeutic strategies failed (e.g. surgical revascularization) will be selected and undergo local transplantation of ABMSCs. The efficacy/safety of this therapy will be assessed by using several endpoints such as (a) prevention of amputation, (b) wound healing and (c) degree of angiogenesis. In order to assess the limb ischemia and hypoxia the several tests and measurements will be performed pre- and post transplantation at a variety of time intervals. The measurements include: TP-toe pressure measurements (by Periflux 5000 Laser Doppler and Oxymetry system), SPP-skin perfusion pressure, ABI-ankle brachial index, LDP-laser Doppler baseline and heat perfusion assessment, TcpO2 without and with O2 provocation inhalation test. In addition, a battery of biochemical and hematological tests of peripheral venous blood sample will be performed.The quality form "EQ-50" will be completed. 8.1 Primary objective: To evaluate an efficacy-safety profile of autologous bone marrow stem cells (ABMSCs) transplantated into chronically and critically ischemic limb (CLI) and into diabetic foot in stage IV Fontaine, Rutherfod 4-6 classification. 8.2 Secondary objectives: 8.2.1 To assess effect of ABMSCs on tissue perfusion of ischemic limb after transplantation by transcutaneous oximetry and the laser Doppler flowmetry using Periflux 5000 system under normal and provocation test conditions. In addition, wound healing of ulcers will be evaluated using a planimetry method from photographs of affected skin taken pre- and post-transplantation. 8.2.2 Relationship between CD 34 progenitor counts separated on gradient-density separation centrifuge from Harvest Technologies and overall effectiveness and safety to treat ischemic limb. 8.3 Priorities: Beside assessment of effectiveness and safety of ABMSCs transplantation ultimate emphasis will be put on avoiding limb amputation. This has significant socioeconomic impact. Therefore this project belongs to the priority programs of clinical research in cardiovascular diseases.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Major limb amputation

    The measure is the number of major limb amputations within 120 days from the procedure.

    120 days

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Tissue perfusion measurements

    120 days

Study Arms (2)

BMAC treatment active group

EXPERIMENTAL

Collection of 240ml from both illiac crests, followed by gradient density centrifugation, resulting in obtaining 40ml of BMAC. This ammount is applied by one ml per injection into the critical limb ischemia along the calf vessels.

Procedure: BMAC application in Critical Limb Ischemia

Control Study Group

NO INTERVENTION

Standard treatment group of patients with CLI after surgical or interventional revascularisation will serve as control.

Interventions

Collection of 240ml from both illiac crests, followed by gradient density centrifugation, resulting in obtaining 40ml of BMAC (Bone-Marrow Aspiration Concentrate). BMAC is subsequently administered into the ischemic limb along calf vessels.

Also known as: Critical Limb Ischemia, Bone-Marrow Aspiration Concentrate, Laser Doppler

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • patients suffering from chronic and critical limb ischemia according to the TASC classification Rutherford 4-6, Fontaine IV,
  • with failed basic conservative and revascularization treatment (surgical or endovascular),
  • with age over 18 years,
  • with signed informed consent for this procedure,
  • without acute CLI that would require early limb amputation.

You may not qualify if:

  • patients with estimated survival less than 6 months,
  • with known bone marrow diseases,
  • with the final stage of renal failure and dialysed,
  • with acute stage of severe limb ischemia with severe inflammatory process affecting patient's life which require limb amputation to avert deterioration in clinical condition and death.
