Summary

This pilot study of 12 patients will test the safety and efficacy of applying autologous, adipose-derived stromal cells (ASCs), uncultured, on a Stage III or IV pressure ulcer or diabetic foot ulcers. Patients will undergo a minimal risk liposuction procedure to withdraw 50-100 cc of adipose tissue. The tissue would be processed to extract the stromal layer of cells that contain stem cells. The ASCs would be injected into a fibrin sealant to be applied to the wound. Patients would be followed for 6 weeks to assess wound healing and tolerance of the treatment.

Conditions

  • Pressure Ulcer

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

Adipose-derived stromal cells

Adipose-derived stromal cells contain stem cells which have been successful in enhancing wound healing. The product used as the carrier is a fibrin sealant called TISSEEL. Pre-pilot testing was done to verify viability of the stromal cells for up to 72 hours in the fibrin sealant.

DRUG
