Study design details

Main study objective

To collect long term follow-up clinical data on patients who received transplantation of autologous cultured limbal stem cells (ACLSCT) to confirm efficacy and safety of the treatment in restoring a normal corneal epithelium in patients suffering from limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD) secondary to ocular burns.

Outcomes

% of patients with successful ACLSCT outcome, defined as CNV assessed by Independent Assessors in less than 2 quadrants and totally absent in central cornea as well as absence of mild to severe epithelial defects, % of patients with successful ACLSCT outcome defined as CNV assessed by investigator in less than 2 quadrants and totally absent in central cornea as well as absence of mild to severe epithelial defects, % of patients with ACLSCT outcome considered a success by investigator based on overall clinical status, % of patients by superficial corneal neo-vascularization score, Nr of related AE

Data analysis plan

General descriptive statistics for numeric variables will include the n (number of observed values), the mean, the standard deviation, the median, the minimum, and the maximum values. For categorical variables, the number and percent of subjects with a specific level of the variable will be presented.
