Clinical Trial Eight women with SUI at Sunnybrook and Women’s

Health Science Centre, Department of Urology at the University of Toronto

Protocol approved by IRB and Health Canada

The injection technique evolved during the initial set of patient

A dosage of 18-22 x 106autologous MDC was used

AMDC Product Shipped on dry ice Ready for injection Excellent cell survival/recovery

Results

Mean follow up 17 (range 3-24) months Improvement in SUI was seen by objective

and/or subjective measures in 5 of 8 women with 1 achieving total continence

Onset of improvement was noted between 3-8 months after injection

Baseline Characteristics

All patients had failed prior SUI treatment, including: Behavioral therapy (85.9%), Pharmacological therapy (32.8%), Surgical therapy (20.3%), and/or bulking agent injection (6.3%)

64 women received intrasphincter injection of either 10, 50, 100, or 200 million AMDC.

Primary outcome was safety

Secondary outcome was effectiveness

Clinical effectiveness was assessed in a subset of 48 patients with moderate to severe incontinence defined as greater than 3 leaks over 3 days and ≥ 3 g pad weight at baseline

1 lost to follow-up

4 Withdrew
