Conditions

Stress Urinary Incontinence

Brief summary

Determine safety and effectiveness of the technique using autologous stem cells in the treatment of urinary incontinence in one male subject.

Detailed description

Autologous stem cells will be obtained from the subject by needle biopsy, sent to a lab for multiplication and after about 6 weeks time will be injected into the subjects urethra.

Interventions

PROCEDUREMuscle Biopsy

Biopsy of thigh muscle to obtain stem cell core.

BIOLOGICALInjection of autologous stem cells

After autologous stem cells have multiplied over 6 weeks time they are injected into the subjects urethra.

MeasureTime frameDescription
Quality of Life (QOL) Described by the Patient's Response on the Patient Global Assessment of Severity (PGI-S) QuestionnaireBaseline and 6 monthsThe PGI-S is comprised of two questions. Question 1 asks the patient to describe how their urinary tract condition is now. Responses are 1 Normal, 2 Mild, 3 Moderate and 4 Severe. Question 2 asks the patient If you were to spend the rest of your life with your urinary condition just the way it is now, how would you feel about that? Responses are 1 Delighted, 2 Pleased, 3 Mostly Satisfied, 4 Mixed, 5 Mostly Dissatisfied, 6 Unhappy and 7 Terrible.
Quality of Life (QOL) Described by the Patient's Response on the Global Response Assessment (GRA)6 monthsThe GRA measures overall improvement with therapy. The patient's response describes their current condition compared to before they were treated. Responses are: 1 Markedly Improved, 2 Moderately Improved, 3 Slightly Improved, 4 No Change, 5 Slightly Worse, 6 Moderately Worse, and 7 Markedly Worse.
Quality of Life (QOL) Described by the Patient's Response on the Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I)6 monthsThe PGI-I is a global index used to rate the response of a condition to a therapy. The patient's response describes their current condition compared to before they were treated. Responses are: 1 Very Much Better, 2 Much Better, 3 A Little Better, 4 No Change, 5 A Little Worse, 6 Much Worse, and 7 Very Much Worse.
