Brief Summary:
The use of mesenchymal stem cells is considered a novel and promising therapeutic option for patients with perianal fistulizing Crohn's disease. However, due to limited clinical data, this multicentre, nationwide study aimed to assess its clinical efficacy in closing complex anal fistula.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment
Crohn Disease Fistula Perianal Drug: Darvadstrocel

Detailed Description:
Fifteen applications in 14 patients (3 male, 11 female) with complex anal fistulas treated in three tertiary hospitals in Austria were included between October 2018 and April 2021. Injection of 120 million allogeneic expanded adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (Cx601 - Darvadstrocel, Alofisel®) was performed in each patient. Closure of the external fistula opening without secretion by finger compression was defined as success.

Group/Cohort Intervention/treatment
patients with Crohn's disease and complex perianal fistula
14 patients with Crohn's disease refractory to standard treatment for complex perianal fistula got enrolled in this study.
Drug: Darvadstrocel
Injection of 120 million allogeneic expanded adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells around the fistula opening and around the fistula tract
Other Name: Alofisel




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Fistula Closure [ Time Frame: 1 year ]
    The study's primary endpoint was established at week 52 with clinically assessed fistula closure.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Evaluation of perianal disease [ Time Frame: 1 year ]
    At every follow up visit the perianal disease was evaluated using the PDAI (Perianal disease activity index)

  2. Evaluation of Crohn's disease [ Time Frame: 1 year ]
    Crohn's disease was evaluated by using the HBI (Harvey Bradshaw Index)
