The Peripheral Mobilized Mononuclear Cell-based Therapy in Patient With Diabetic Neuropathy

Not Applicable
Withdrawn
Conditions
Diabetic Neuropathy
Interventions
Biological: Normal saline
Biological: stem-cell
Registration Number
NCT02315235
Lead Sponsor
Seoul National University Hospital
Brief Summary

To investigate the efficacy and safety of autologous peripheral blood stem cell based therapy in patients with diabetic painful neuropathy.

Detailed Description

Diabetic painful neuropathy a prevalent, disabling disorder. Currently, the only effective treatments are glucose control and pain management. Diabetic neuropathy is characterized by reduction of vascularity in peripheral nerves and deficiency in neurotrophic and angiogenic factors. Recent studies have shown that bone marrow (BM)-derived stem or progenitor cells have favorable effects on the repair of cardiovascular diseases. Since these BM-derived stem or progenitor cells contain various angiogenic and neurotrophic factors, these cells have been attempted for treating experimental diabetic neuropathy, and turned out to be effective for reversing various manifestations of experimental diabetic neuropathy.

However, stem-cell therapy was not proven in human study. Therefore, we will investigate the efficacy and safety of autologous peripheral blood stem cell injection in diabetic neuropathy.

GroupInterventionDescription
controlNormal salineThe operator inject normal saline(control) to thirty site of the other side leg of active comparator. The volume of one site injection is 0.5 ml. The depth of needle injection would be 1.5cm.
stem cell (mononuclear cell)stem-cellThe stem cell (mononuclear cell) is injected to thirty site of one side leg in operating room after general anesthesia. The volume of one site injection is 0.5 to 1.0 ml. The depth of needle injection would be 1.5cm.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Changes in pain for a week after the procedurebaseline, 4 week, 12 week

The pain scale was calculate by Numeric rating scale (NRS). We observe a change in NRS pain scores during the follow-up period.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The evaluation of changes in the specific neuro-sensory systembaseline, 4 week, 12 week

The following tests was evaluated during the follow-up period. The pain intensity was evaluated by short-form McGill Pain Questionnaire and by sleep disturbance pain score. The quantitative change of sensory nerve was evaluated by quantitative sensory test (QST). We measure serum neuron-specific enolase (NSE), glucose, insulin and c-peptide. The amount of drug requirements will also assess at each follow-up period.
