Therapeutic angiogenesis for patients with no-option critical limb ischemia by adipose-derived regenerative cells: TACT-ADRC multicenter trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI) still have a high rate of lower limb amputation, which is associated with not only a decrease in quality of life but also poor life prognosis. Implantation of adipose-derived regenerative cells (ADRCs) has an angiogenic potential for patients with limb ischemia.

Objectives

We investigated safety, feasibility, and efficacy of therapeutic angiogenesis by cell transplantation (TACT) of ADRCs for those patients in multicenter clinical trial in Japan.

Methods

The TACT-ADRC multicenter trial is a prospective, interventional, open-labeled study. Patients with CLI (Fontaine class III-IV) who have no other option for standard revascularization therapy were enrolled in this study. Thirty-four target ischemic limbs of 29 patients were received freshly isolated autologous ADRCs implantation.

Results

The overall survival rate at a post-operative period and at 6 months follow-up was 100% at any time points. As a primary endpoint for efficacy evaluation, 32 limbs out of 34 (94.1%) were free from major amputation for 6 months. Numerical rating scale (from 6 to 1) as QOL score, ulcer size (from 317 mm² at to 109 mm²), and 6-min walking distance (from 255 to 369 m) improved in 90.6%, 83.3%, and 72.2% patients, respectively.

Conclusions

Implantation of autologous ADRCs could be safe and effective for the achievement of therapeutic angiogenesis in the multicenter settings, as a result in no major adverse event, optimal survival rate, and limb salvage for patients with no-conventional option against critical limb ischemia.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough the mononuclear cell (MNC) transplantation could theoretically induce therapeutic angiogenesis in the patients with no-option critical limb ischemia (NO-CLI), the clinical responses to this approach are inconsistent among different clinical trials. The purpose of this study was to identify the prognostic factors of responders and develop a predictive nomogram to guide patient selection.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed a consecutive NO-CLI cohort who received peripheral blood-derived transplantation in our center. The patients who survived and achieved complete remission of CLI at 6 months post-transplantation were defined as responders. Logistic regression models were used to screen and identify the prognostic factors based on which predictive nomogram was developed. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and a calibration curve were drawn to determine the discrimination level and predictive accuracy.ResultsThe study ultimately enrolled 103 patients, including 58 responders and 45 non-responders. Based on the multivariate regression analysis, age ≥ 50 years (odds ratio [OR] 0.201, P = 0.004), blood fibrinogen > 4 g/L (OR 0.176, P = 0.003), arterial occlusion above the knee/elbow (OR 0.232, P = 0.010), the transcutaneous pressure of oxygen (TcPO2) (OR 1.062, P = 0.006), and the Log total transplanted CD34+ cell count (OR 3.506, P = 0.046) were identified as independent prognostic factors of the responders in the nomogram. An area under the ROC curve of 0.851 indicated good discrimination, and the calibration curve of the predicted probability showed optimal agreement with that of the observed probability.ConclusionsAge, blood fibrinogen, arterial occlusion level, TcPO2, and the total transplanted CD34+ cell count were independent prognostic factors of the responders. A nomogram with high discrimination and accuracy was developed to provide individualized predictions.Trail registrationChiCTR, ChiCTR1800019401 . Registered 9 November 2018-Retrospectively registered.
