Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Idiopathic Focal Segmental Glumero Sclerosis (FSGS) is not very common but important manifestation of kidney disease.

FSGS has poor prognosis among the patterns of Idiopathic Nephrotic Syndrome (INS).

Even with treatment (Steroid therapy and cytotoxic immunosuppressant therapy), many patients eventually still require dialysis.

Cell therapy is useful in treatment of INS and mesenchymal stromal/stem cell is one of the cells that useful in the treatment of glomerulus disease.

Intravenous injection of allogeneic adipose derived mesenchymal stromal/stem cell will be done in 5 patients with refractory INS(FSGS). They will be followed 1, 2, 4 weeks and then monthly until a year following injection day.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Primary FSGS thought to be a part of the immune-mediated disease. Main challenge is to decrease protein excretion in urine. Only 30% of children with FSGS achieve complete remission with steroids and other 30-40% patients experience remission (partial and complete) with cytotoxic immunosuppressant drugs. Even with these treatments, many patients eventually still require dialysis. Other treatment strategy doesn't exceed beyond symptomatic treatment and delaying the progression. Also risk of recurrence after kidney transplantation is 20-50%.

Cell therapy is one of the treatment strategies and mesenchymal stromal/stem cell is one modality that notice in glomerulus disease.

We will evaluate safety and efficacy of intravenous injection of allogeneic AD-MSC (adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cell) in 5 refractory INS patients.They will be followed 1, 2, 4 weeks and then monthly until a year following injection day.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

\- Age 2-14 years at onset of signs or symptoms of FSGS 2- Primary FSGS involving either native kidneys or primary FSGS recurring after renal transplantation. Biopsy confirmed as primary FSGS (including all subtypes).

3-Estimated GFR ≥ 25 ml/min/1.73 m2 4- Up/c \> 1.0 (g protein/g creatinine) on first am void 5- Steroid and IS resistance as defined by primary physician (patients with little or no reduction in protein excretion at 12 to 16 weeks are considered to be steroid resistant --A relapse is return of proteinuria to ≥3.5 g/day in someone who had undergone a complete or partial remission- IS resistance: no response to IS in 8-12 weeks) 6-At least one month from last immunization received has passed 7- Ability to understand and willingness to sign consent by patient legal guardian

Exclusion Criteria
