CKDu Treated With Intra-arterial Infusion of Autologous SVF Cells

Summary

This is an interventional study to treat 18 patients with chronic kidney disease of unknown cause (CKDu), formerly known as Mesoamerican nephropathy (MeN), with autologous adipose tissue-derived stromal vascular fraction (SVF) cells transplanted by intra-arterial injection both kidneys. This study assesses: (1) safety and tolerability, (2) preliminary evidence of efficacy, (3) exploratory evidence of clinical effects.
