NCT02348086

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the impact that treatment with a cellular concentrate derived from an individual's own fat, known as the stromal vascular fraction (SVF), has on pain and functionality in people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). SVF contains multiple cellular components, including stem cells, with both regenerative and anti-inflammatory properties. This therapy has shown promise for ameliorating the symptoms of RA. This study is designed to evaluate changes in pain and functionality in individuals with RA for up to 12 months following SVF treatment.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change from Baseline in Overall Rheumatoid Arthritis Disease Activity Over the Course of a 12 Month Period as Measured by the Patient Activity Scale-II (PAS-II)

    The change from baseline over the course of 12 months using participants' assessment of their overall ability to be active. Mean scores will be used for baseline (day 0) and all interviews up to month 12 (months 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12). Answer options are graded either according to a four point or ten point Likert response scale.

    Baseline, 12 Months

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Change from Baseline in Overall Health at Month 12 as Measured by the Participants' Response to the Health Assessment Questionnaire-II (HAQ-II)

    Baseline, Month 12

  • Change from Baseline in Overall Pain at Month 12 as Measured by Participants' Response to the Patient Activity Scale-II (PAS-II) Pain Subscale

    Baseline, Month 12

  • Change from Baseline in Overall Global Activity at Month 12 as Measured by Participants' Response to the Patient Activity Scale-II (PAS-II) Global Activity Subscale

    Baseline, Month 12
