NCT04187651
In treatment of perianal fistula several methods are described. However, since the Hippocrates basics of surgical treatment has not changed very much. the aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of PRP gel in treatment of perianal fistula.
NCT05666609
In this prospective, randomized trail, duration of non-cutting seton placement in patients with fistula-in-ano is evaluated.
NCT05039411
Objectives: Primary: To demonstrate the safety of allogeneic UC-MSCs administered by injection for complex perianal fistulas in patients with Crohn's disease Secondary: To determine the efficacy of a single/multiple allogeneic UC-MSCs injection in improving complex perianal fistula complications and (re-epithelialization of the external openings).
NCT06822686
Crohn's disease is a chronic inflammatory condition that can affect any part of the bowel which can be controlled by a combination of medical and surgical treatments but cannot be cured. A 1/3 of patients have involvement of the perianal region. There are several conditions that can affect the perianal region but the most debilitating is the presence of fistulating disease. Fistulae are small tunnels that run under the skin from the inside of the anus to skin outside the anus and are associated with the inflammatory process seen with Crohn's disease. They can cause pain, infection and discharge which adversely affects the quality of life of the patient. Surgery can be used to treat the symptoms however cure is often difficult to achieve. Stem cells have anti-inflammatory potential and have been shown to be a useful treatment for this condition in combination with effective medical therapy. The stem cells used in the studies need to be prepared 48 hours before use which limits their usage and this is not readily available in the UK. The proposed study aims to assess the feasibility of using autologous stem cells prepared with a rapid preparation system at the time of surgery, within the operating room (currently in use at Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (OUH) within the orthopaedic department for a different indication) for fistulating anal Crohn's disease. The stem cells are derived from the patients own bone marrow. The patients undergoing surgery would be having it done for the stem cell treatment. They will then undergo 3 follow up visits and complete questionnaires at each visit alongside a clinical assessment. This study is funded by Occtopus (Colorectal charity based in Oxford).
NCT03449069
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of using an autologous mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) coated fistula plug in people with fistulizing Crohn's disease. Autologous means these cells to coat the plug come from the patient.
NCT05223309
Fistula in ano is a chronic problem for the patients. It causes distressing because of foul odor and soiling with recurrent infection and discharge. Recurrence and anal sphincter injury were the most critical complications following surgery. Loose, thick Seton placement was the most promising surgical operation. To reduce the time of Seton placement, therefore, decreasing the suffering of patients from soiling and multiple dressing.
NCT02423330
This clinical trial will evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Strattice-LIFT procedure to treat anal fistulas.
