Study of an artificial human tissue medicament for patients with severe corneal ulcers that not respond to conventional therapies.

Multicenter clinical trial to evaluate the safety and feasibility of allogeneic tissue engineered product (human nanostructured artificial cornea) in patients with advanced corneal trophic ulcers refractory to (ophtalmic) conventional treatment.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To evaluate the safety, feasibility and evidence of clinical efficacy of a model of human artificial nanostructured lamellar corneal, in patients with severe corneal disease for which there is currently no effective therapeutic.;Secondary Objective: 1.Generate artificial corneas nanostructured lamellar human allogeneic, from cadaver donor origin from sclero-corneal limbus and biomaterials 2.Implement the nanostructured artificial corneas human in a group of patients randomized to the experimental group, suffering from severe corneal disease. 3 .To evaluate the biosafety of nanostructured artificial corneas human implanted in patients to rule out adverse reactions of relevance.;Primary end point(s): To evaluate the safety, feasibility and evidence of clinical efficacy of a model of human artificial nanostructured lamellar corneal.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 24 month

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): 1.- To generate human artificial nanostructured corneas of autologous origin from tissue biopsies of the corneal limbus of a group of patients and fibrin-agarose biomaterials. 2.- To implant the autologous human artificial nanostructured corneas in a group of patients with severe corneal disease by partial anterior lamellar keratoplasty. 3.- To evaluate the level of biosafety of the implanted autologous human artificial nanostructured corneas to detect any significant adverse effect.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 24 month
