Outcomes Data of Adipose Stem Cells to Treat Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Conditions
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Registration Number
NCT02348060
Lead Sponsor
StemGenex
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 the quality of life of people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). 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 COPD. This study is designed to evaluate quality of life changes in individuals with COPD for up to 12 months following SVF treatment.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change from Baseline in Overall Quality of Life Over the Course of a 12 Month Period as Measured by the Chronic Respiratory Disease Questionnaire - Self-Administered Individualized (CRQ-SAI)Baseline, 12 Months

The change from baseline over the course of 12 months using participants' assessment of their overall quality of life. Mean scores will be used for baseline (day 0) and all interviews up to month 12 (months 1, 3, 6, and 12). Answer options are given as a seven point Likert response scale.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change from Baseline in Overall Breathing Comfort at Month 12 as Measured by Participants' Responses to the Chronic Respiratory Disease Questionnaire - Self-Administered Individualized (CRQ-SAI) Dyspnea SubscaleBaseline, Month 12

Participant assessment of breathing comfort from baseline to month 12 using the CRQ-SAI dyspnea subscale.

Change from Baseline in Overall Fatigue at Month 12 as Measured by Participants' Responses to the Chronic Respiratory Disease Questionnaire - Self-Administered Individualized (CRQ-SAI) Fatigue SubscaleBaseline, Month 12

Participant assessment of fatigue from baseline to month 12 using the CRQ-SAI fatigue subscale.

Change from Baseline in Overall Emotional Function at Month 12 as Measured by Participants' Responses to the Chronic Respiratory Disease Questionnaire - Self-Administered Individualized (CRQ-SAI) Emotional Function SubscaleBaseline, Month 12

Participant assessment of emotional function from baseline to month 12 using the CRQ-SAI emotional function subscale.

Change from Baseline in Mastery at Month 12 as Measured by Participants' Responses to the Chronic Respiratory Disease Questionnaire - Self-Administered Individualized (CRQ-SAI) Mastery SubscaleBaseline, Month 12

Participant assessment of mastery (the ability to control feelings of disease-related fear or panic) from baseline to month 12 using the CRQ-SAI mastery subscale.
