Adipose Stromal Cell Enriched Autologous Fat Grafting for Treating Pain at Amputation Sites: A Single Center Site, Prospective, Randomized, Pilot Outcomes Trial
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Enhanced Fat Grafting and Standard fat graft for Wounded Warrior and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 10 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
We propose a prospective, randomized clinical study to assess the efficacy of minimally invasive autologous fat transfer addressing pain and poor prosthetic fit at amputation sites.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
The stromal vascular fraction (SVF) cell suspension (device output) will be processed using the Tissue Genesis Cell Isolation System™ The Standard graft material and the stromal vascular fraction cells will be mixed and subsequently injected into the amputated stump at a concentration of 2.0 - 3.0 x 10 6 stromal vascular cells/ml of injected fat graft to each site. The volume of each injected fat graft will depend on the volume requirements for each injured extremity. To manually combine the standard fat graft material and the SVF suspension (device output), each of the syringes will be connected via luer to luer lock. The contents of the lipoaspirate syringe are transferred to the SVF syringe and the cell suspension will be injected slowly back and forth between the two (2) syringes. The final 1 mL SVF-fat graft syringe is now considered cell-enriched and ready for injection into the subject.
Aspirated fat tissue will be processed as standard graft material. It will be divided into small aliquots and centrifuged in a sterile rotor (3000 rpm for 3 minutes/1200g), and top fluid oil layer from the fat tissue fractions were removed, and transferred into 1ml syringes and injected into the amputation stump. This graft preparation will be performed in the operating room. Standard fat graft material will serve as a control treatment and will be injected into limb using specialized injection cannulas
