Résumé
Mesenchymal stem cells have been administered via direct injection to treat perianal Crohn's fistulizing disease. We herein sought to determine the safety and durability of treatment response to 12 months with 3 individual phase IB/IIA clinical trials of mesenchymal stem cells for refractory perianal, rectovaginal, and ileal pouch fistulas in the setting of Crohn disease. Three phase IB/IIA randomized placebo-controlled single-blinded clinical trials were performed for (1) perianal fistulas, (2) rectovaginal fistula, and (3) ileal pouch in situ with anovaginal and/or perianal fistulas. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (75 million in 7.5 mL) were injected at the time of exam under anesthesia on day 0 and month 3. Outcome measures were adverse events and combined clinical and pelvic magnetic resonance imaging healing at month 6 and month 12. Across all 3 trials, 64 patients were enrolled; 49 were treatment and 15 were control. At 6 months, combined clinical and radiographic healing was achieved in 83.3%, 33.3%, and 30.8% of the perianal, rectovaginal, and pouch fistula treatment cohorts, respectively. At 12 months, the treatment response was durable, with 67.7% of perianal, 37.5% of rectovaginal, and 46.2% of peripouch fistulas maintaining complete clinical and radiographic healing. Two patients in the perianal fistula control cohort achieved combined clinical and radiographic healing at 12 months, whereas 0% of rectovaginal and pouch control patients healed. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells offer a safe and effective alternative treatment approach for severe perianal, rectovaginal, and peripouch fistulizing Crohn's disease. Treatment results are durable at 12 months.

BACKGROUND
BACKGROUND
Mesenchymal stem cells have been administered via direct injection to treat perianal Crohn's fistulizing disease. We herein sought to determine the safety and durability of treatment response to 12 months with 3 individual phase IB/IIA clinical trials of mesenchymal stem cells for refractory perianal, rectovaginal, and ileal pouch fistulas in the setting of Crohn disease.
METHODS
METHODS
Three phase IB/IIA randomized placebo-controlled single-blinded clinical trials were performed for (1) perianal fistulas, (2) rectovaginal fistula, and (3) ileal pouch in situ with anovaginal and/or perianal fistulas. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (75 million in 7.5 mL) were injected at the time of exam under anesthesia on day 0 and month 3. Outcome measures were adverse events and combined clinical and pelvic magnetic resonance imaging healing at month 6 and month 12.
RESULTS
RESULTS
Across all 3 trials, 64 patients were enrolled; 49 were treatment and 15 were control. At 6 months, combined clinical and radiographic healing was achieved in 83.3%, 33.3%, and 30.8% of the perianal, rectovaginal, and pouch fistula treatment cohorts, respectively. At 12 months, the treatment response was durable, with 67.7% of perianal, 37.5% of rectovaginal, and 46.2% of peripouch fistulas maintaining complete clinical and radiographic healing. Two patients in the perianal fistula control cohort achieved combined clinical and radiographic healing at 12 months, whereas 0% of rectovaginal and pouch control patients healed.
CONCLUSION
CONCLUSIONS
Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells offer a safe and effective alternative treatment approach for severe perianal, rectovaginal, and peripouch fistulizing Crohn's disease. Treatment results are durable at 12 months.
