Detailed Description

research design: A randomized controlled trial was designed. According to the established inclusion criteria/exclusion criteria, the subjects were randomly divided into two groups by random number table. Each group received Mesenchymal Stem Cells(MSCs)from fat sources and conventional diabetic foot treatment according to the estimated results of sample size. A randomized controlled study was conducted with three blinds. The subjects were blind, the interventions were blind, and the evaluators were blind. Subjects were randomly grouped and assisted by coordinators. Follow-up was carried out at 5 time points 7 days, 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after operation to evaluate the pain and functional changes of the subjects, and to evaluate the safety and effectiveness.

Subject inclusion, exclusion criteria and allocation methods entry criteria and exclusion criteria will be executed.

Method of allocation and grouping:

A randomized controlled study was conducted with three blinds. The subjects were blind, the interventions were blind, and the evaluators were blind. Subjects were randomly grouped and assisted by coordinators. After receiving the random number, the test specimens and injections are marked by the research number rather than the names of the subjects. Injections of stem cells or saline are randomly determined by the computer system and will not be disclosed to the subjects. Subject groups would not inform the interveners that each injection was prepared by an assistant and the syringe was covered with black cloth. The operator and the participants would not know which drug was injected. The evaluation is done by a third party and the grouping will not be disclosed to the evaluator.After preliminary screening of qualified subjects, after signing the informed consent and verifying the entry/exclusion criteria by the research unit, and confirming that they meet the selection criteria, according to the results of the random system, the distribution of subjects is strictly carried out according to the random results.Subject Entry Records: Researchers should fill in the corresponding record forms according to the order of participants'enrollment, including the screening form, the identification form and the record form of participants' enrollment. All research-related test sheets need to be attached to the original record sheet kept by the researcher. The original record table is also the original record of this study which is monitored according to Good Clinical Practice(GCP)principle.

Number of cases required:

To test the effectiveness of stem cell therapy in the treatment of lower limb ischemic necrosis in diabetic patients, the subjects were randomly divided into stem cell treatment group and control group. Both groups received routine treatment, while the stem cell treatment group would receive stem cell therapy. According to the results of Lu Debin et al., the effective rate of stem cell therapy for ischemic necrosis of lower limbs in diabetic patients can reach 83.3%, while the effective rate in control group is 45%. In this study, two-sided test will be used, taking alpha = 0.05, beta = 0.1, and calculating the sample size according to the following formula .N=(Ualpha+Ubeta)22P(1-P)/(P1-P)2 N is the sample size required for each treatment group. In this study, the sample size was divided into two groups, and the sample size of each group was the same.

Ualpha and Ubeta are the standard normal deviations corresponding to alpha and beta respectively. Looking at the quantile table of normal distribution, we can see that Ualpha(0.05)=1.65, Ubeta(0.1)=1.28.

P 0 and P 1 represent the effective rates of the control group and the stem cell treatment group respectively. In this study, P 0 = 45%, P 1 = 83.3%; P = (P 0 + P 1) / 2 = (0.45 + 0.8333) / 2 = 0.6416, The above parameters and numerical values are introduced into the formula calculation.

N=(1.65+1.28)2*2*0.6416(1-0.6416)/(0.833-0.45)2=26.8732≈27 There were 54 patients in the two groups. Considering that some patients might withdraw from the study, the original sample size was added to 10% of the sample size, and the final sample size of the study was 60.

Use, dosage, time and course of treatment of stem cell preparations:

1. Stem cell preparation: stem cells derived from autologous fat.

2. Usage: Lower extremity muscle injection. Adipose stem cell transplantation anesthesia was performed by lumbar anesthesia; purified adipose stem cells were injected intramuscularly into lower extremities at intervals of 3 cm, which could be injected at about 50 points, 0.5 ml stem cell suspension at each point, about 1 x 106 cells, 25 points in lower extremities, 25 points in sole and well-being, and the total number of transplanted cells was about 1 x 108; (At the same time, the ulcer with infection was debrided and about 1 ml cell suspension was retained.) Subcutaneous injection of ulcer at the base and around the ulcer was performed, i.e. local injection of wound surface.

3. dose: The cells (1 x 108 cells) were mixed in 25 mL saline.

4. course of treatment: one-time intramuscular injection.

Criteria for discontinuation and termination of clinical research:

1. Research discontinuation 1.1 Subjects voluntarily withdraw from the study at any time without affecting further treatment.

1.2 The following adverse events occurred (mainly referring to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) ).(1) fever, syncope, sweating, vomiting and other systemic symptoms with unknown causes; (2) dysfunction of gastrointestinal tract with unknown causes, loss of appetite, nausea, abdominal distention, constipation or diarrhea; (3) headache, fatigue, unexplained muscle pain, discomfort and changes in sleep; Mental symptoms such as anxiety, irritability, unexplained visual impairment, muscle tremor, dysuria, etc. Local manifestations such as skin macula, erythema, etc. Local pain aggravation or reduced range of activity, _Acute poisoning symptoms or death.

1.3 Researchers believe that there are serious violations of research programs or incorrect grouping.

1.4 Researchers believe that there are safety problems in the research program. 1.5 subjects were not interviewed. If participants discontinue treatment in advance, the cause of discontinuation must be documented in the Case report form (CRF), but follow-up is required until the end of the study and the study form is filled in.

2. Endpoint of the study 2.1 Severe treatment-related adverse events occurred between the end of treatment and the end of follow-up.

2.2 At the end of the follow-up, compared with the control group, ulcer healing, limb salvage rate, Ruthford grade, painless walking time, ankle-brachial index (ABI), transcutaneous partial pressure of oxygen (TcPO2), laboratory examination and vascular magnetic resonance imaging (MRA) improved significantly, indicating the effectiveness (with statistical differences): Criteria for evaluating efficacy

Compared with the control group, the ulcer healing rate, limb salvage rate, lower limb vascular ultrasound, ankle-brachial index (ABI), percutaneous partial pressure of oxygen (TcPO2), multi-slice spiral CT angiography (CTA), Rutherford grading, Wong-Baker Faces pain score of the subjects improved significantly compared with the control group, indicating the effectiveness (with statistical differences):

Main Evaluation Indicators:

1.Ulcer healing and amputation were calculated. Ulcer healing rate = number of complete wound healing cases / total number of ulcers in this group; amputation rate = number of amputations / total number of cases in this group.

2 Secondary Observation Indicators Lower extremity vascular ultrasound, ankle brachial index (ABI), percutaneous partial pressure of oxygen (TcPO2), multi-slice spiral CT angiography (CTA), Rutherford classification, Wong-Baker Faces pain score.

Recording requirements of adverse events and reporting methods and handling measures of serious adverse events Formulate detailed and standardized "Risk Management Mechanisms and Damage Event Processing Measures for Stem Cell Clinical Research" before the start of the experiment. All the subjects who received lower limb muscle injection of stem cells will become effective population for safety analysis. Researchers will faithfully record the side effects and adverse events of the subjects and analyze the causes.

1. Adverse events are defined as adverse and unexpected medical events during treatment and follow-up, including: (1) systemic symptoms such as fever, syncope, sweating and vomiting with unknown causes; (2) gastrointestinal dysfunction with unknown causes, anorexia, nausea, abdominal distention, constipation or diarrhea; and (3) headache, fatigue, unexplained muscle pain, No. Suitability and changes in sleep, etc. (4) Mental symptoms such as unexplained anxiety, restlessness and restlessness; (5) Visual impairment, muscle tremor, dysuria, etc. (5) Local manifestations such as skin macula and erythema; (5) Local pain aggravation or reduced range of activity; and (5) Acute poisoning symptoms or death.

2. Severe adverse events (SAEs) are defined as events requiring hospitalization, prolonging hospitalization, disability, impacting work ability, life-threatening or death-threatening, congenital malformations, etc. The severity of adverse events must be recorded and graded according to CTCAE criteria. The relationship between SAEs and treatment should be evaluated according to the following definitions. (1) Irrelevant: There is evidence that the cause of adverse events is not intra-articular injection therapy (such as past conditions, potential diseases, complications); 2) related: adverse events are time-related with intra-articular injection of drugs and known or suspected that intramuscular injection of drugs in lower extremities can cause the adverse events; 3) unable to assess. Adverse events are required to be recorded in the Case report form(CRF) related sections, which need to be described as: start and end dates; adverse event outcomes; whether they lead to withdrawal from the study; whether they are related to lower extremity intramuscular drug injections; and whether they are serious adverse events.
