Phase 1

Completed

• Conditions: Chronic Kidney Diseases
• Interventions: Drug: Allogeneic adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSC)

• Registration Number: NCT05362786
• Lead Sponsor: LaTonya J. Hickson

Brief Summary

   2. If eGFR 25-44 ml/min/1.73m2, must have urine albumin:creatinine ratio ≥30mg/g despite maximally tolerated dose of RAAS drugs (e.g. ACE Inhibitors, Angiotensin Receptor Blockers)

3. Hemoglobin A1c of ≤ 8% despite maximally tolerated anti-diabetes therapy

4. Ability to give informed consent

Exclusion Criteria

5. Glomerulonephritis not in partial or complete remission for 6 months (or estimated/ measured proteinuria greater than 10 grams/day),
6. Active glomerulonephritis (glomerular diseases with evidence of active urinary sediment, serology or biopsy findings) including ANCA-associated glomerulonephritis, post-infectious glomerulonephritis, lupus nephritis, amyloidosis, or other monoclonal gammopathy of renal significance
7. Autosomal dominant or recessive polycystic kidney disease
8. Nephrotic syndrome defined as proteinuria >3.5 g per 24 hours, plus hypoalbuminemia (serum albumin less than or equal to 2.5 g/L) and edema.
9. Proteinuria >5 g/day (with or without nephrotic syndrome).
10. Kidney failure requiring renal replacement therapy (hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, or kidney transplantation)
11. Active immunosuppression therapy (including prednisone greater than or equal to 10 mg daily)
12. Kidney transplantation history
13. Solid organ transplantation history
14. Recent cardiovascular event (myocardial infarction, stroke, congestive heart failure (NYHA class ≥III or ejection fraction ≤30%) within 6 months or uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmias (e.g. ventricular arrhythmia, supraventricular tachycardia and bradyarrhythmia)
15. History of liver cirrhosis
16. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or asthma requiring daily medication
17. History of blood clotting disorder (thromboembolism; pulmonary embolism, deep venous thrombosis)
18. Pregnancy
19. Unwilling to use contraception for at least 2 months after MSC infusion if sexually active and able to become pregnant or father a child.
20. Active malignancy
21. Active infection (e.g. systemic or specific organ involvement such as pneumonia or osteomyelitis)
22. Recent COVID-19 infection within the last 3 months
23. History of hepatitis B or C (without cure), or HIV infection
24. History of allergic reaction to cellular products (ie. blood transfusions, platelets)
25. Active tobacco use
26. Illicit drug use and excessive alcohol use
27. Presence of psychosocial issues (e.g., uncontrolled mental illness, unpredictable childcare or eldercare responsibilities, irregular/ inflexible work schedule) that may interfere with the ability to complete all study procedures
28. Subjects anticipating prolonged travel or other physical restrictions that would prohibit return for scheduled study visits.
29. Inability to give informed consent
