摘要
To determine the safety and feasibility of human autologous adipose tissue-derived adult mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) for ocular surface regeneration in patients with bilateral limbal stem-cell deficiency (LSCD).A phase IIa clinical trial was designed (https://Clinicaltrials.gov, NCT01808378) with 8 patients, 3 of whom had aniridia, 2 meibomian glands diseases, 2 multiple surgeries and 1 chronic chemical injury. The therapeutic protocol was as follows: 6-mm of central corneal epithelium was removed, 400,000 ASCs were injected into each limboconjunctival quadrant, 400,000 ASCs were suspended over the cornea for 20 min, and finally the cornea was covered with an amniotic membrane patch.No adverse events were detected after a mean of 86,5 months of follow-up. One year after surgery, 6 of the 8 transplants were scored as successful, five patients had improved uncorrected visual acuity (mean of 12 letters), two patients presented epithelial defects (also present at baseline) and the mean percentage of corneal neovascularization was of 28.75% (36.98%, at baseline). Re-examination 24 months after treatment disclosed preserved efficacy in 4 patients. At the last visit (after a mean of 86,5 months of follow up) epithelial defects were absent in all patients although improvement in all of the variables was only maintained in patient 3 (meibomian glands agenesia).ASCs are a feasible and conservative therapy for treating bilateral LSCD. The therapeutic effect differs between etiologies and diminishes over time.
