Effectiveness and Safety of Autologous ADRC for Treatment of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Partial Rupture

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
Autologous adipose-derived regenerative cells (ADRC) will be extracted using Celution 800/CRS System (Cytori Therapeutics Inc) from a portion of the fat harvested from the patient's front abdominal wall. Patients will undergo knee arthroscopic surgery followed by one-time intraarticular ADRC administration (directly into anterior cruciate ligament). This is a single arm study with no control. All patients receive cell therapy.

Detailed Description
-----------------
Patients with verified diagnosis partial rupture of anterior cruciate ligament will undergo liposuction from front abdominal wall under local anesthesia. After that autologous ADRC will be extracted using Celution 800/CRS System (Cytori Therapeutics Inc) from harvested adipose tissue. Same day patients will undergo knee arthroscopic surgery followed by one-time intraarticular freshly isolated ADRC administration (directly into anterior cruciate ligament close to the rupture).

Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Number of serious adverse events (SAEs) and serious adverse reactions (SARs) |  | 2 weeks after treatment | 

Secondary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Quality of life monitoring | Quality of life estimated by validated questionnaires: the Short Form (36) Health Survey (SF-36), Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) | Follow up to completion (up to 24 weeks after treatment) |
