Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine safety and efficacy of allogenic eASCs (expanded adult stem cells) for the treatment of recto-vaginal fistula in patients with Crohn´s disease.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Signed informed consent.
  • Patients with Crohn´s disease diagnosed at least 12 months earlier in accordance with accepted clinical, endoscopic, anatomopathological and/or radiologic criteria.
  • Fulfilling one of the following criteria:
  • At least, one previous surgery for fistulous disease.
  • Physical status which discourage liposuction.
  • Rectovaginal fistula.
  • Women of a childbearing age. Good general state of health according to the findings of the clinical history and the physical examination.

Exclusion

  • Presence of severe proctitis (prominent friability, spontaneous bleeding, multiple erosions, deep ulcers) or dominant active luminal disease requiring immediate therapy, assessed by rectosigmoidoscopy
  • Patients with CDAI≥201
  • Patients with an abscess unless a complete toilet of the area with drainage of the collections and the absence of abscess and other collections is confirmed prior to treatment start
  • Patients who have received infliximab or any other anti TNF agent in the 8 weeks before the cell treatment administration
  • Patients who have received tacrolimus or cyclosporine in the 4 weeks before the cell treatment administration
  • Patients with a history of abuse of alcohol or other addictive substances in the 6 months prior to inclusion
  • Patients with malignant tumor, except for basal cell or cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, or patients with a prior history of malignant tumors, unless the neoplastic disease has been in remission for the previous 5 years
  • Patients with cardiopulmonary disease which, in opinion of the investigator, in unstable or sufficiently serious to exclude the patient from the study.
  • Patients with any type of medical or psychiatric disease which, in the opinion of the investigator, could be grounds for exclusion from study
  • Patients with congenital or acquired immunodeficiencies. HIV, HBV, HCV or treponema infection, whether active or latent.
  • Patients allergic to local anesthetics or gadolinium (MRI contrast) MRI is unfeasible (e.g. due to the presence of pacemakers, hip replacements or severe claustrophobia)
  • Patients who have suffering major surgery or severe trauma in the prior 6 months
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women
  • Patients currently receiving, or having received within 1 month prior to enrolment into this clinical trial, any investigational drug.
