NCT01309594

Brief Summary

An international investigation to evaluate if, and if so how long, autologous bone marrow hematopoietic stem cell transplantation can safely restore liver functions for HIV infected patients who have decompensated liver cirrhosis.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Post-transplantation prognosis for cirrhosis

    Evaluate statistical significance between pre-transplantation and 24 weeks after in: * Child-Pugh score * albumin * serum fibrosis markers * Transient Elastography (TM) * ascites imagery * SF-36v2(TM) Health Survey. Because advanced liver cirrhosis is a progressive condition itself, treatment efficacy is defined by "improvement" and "no change" in the indicators listed.

    24 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Duration of the treatment efficacy

    After 24 weeks up to 48 weeks

Study Arms (1)

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

EXPERIMENTAL

Extraction of bone marrow cells from HIV positive patients with advanced liver cirrhosis and transplant their bone marrow back into the patients

Procedure: Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

Interventions

Harvest and apheresis of bone marrow cells from HIV infected patients with cirrhosis under general anesthesia, using bone marrow collection system and transplanting the patients' hematopoietic stem cells back to the patients

Also known as: Autologous bone marrow cell infusion therapy (ABMi)
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

Eligibility Criteria

Age20 Years - 70 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • have cirrhosis with 7 or higher Child-Pugh Score in Child-Pugh Score B
  • able to consent and willing to participate in the study
  • under good control for HIV infection

You may not qualify if:

  • Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), except for cases having been completely treated without history of recurrence
  • Malignant tumors other than HCC
  • Alcoholic liver disease (ALD)
  • Hemoglobin under 8g/dL or Platelets under 20/ml at the registration
  • Esophageal or gastric varices with a risk of bursting, except for cases with only cured history of such conditions
  • Cases that cannot obtain the informed consent to autologous blood transfusion
  • Pregnancy
  • Renal dysfunction with 2mg/dL or higher serum creatinine
  • Performance Status 3 or 4 (assessment excludes hemophilic arthritis related daily life limitations)
  • Cases not fit for general anesthesia
  • Other conditions considered not suitable for the study by doctors
