Brief Summary: The primary focus of the trial is safety and efficacy of the intra-muscular implantation of either bone-marrow, or peripheral blood mononuclear cells, in critical limb ischemia, as judged by the proportion of patients which are alive without major amputation 6 months after inclusion.
Detailed Description: Critical limb ischemia is a frequent situation whose incidence can be evaluated to 500 to 1,000 per million per year. Limb salvage is the main goal of therapy and is usually attempted by surgical or percutaneous vascularization procedures. However approximately 25 % of patients are not suitable for such procedures and it was estimated that less than half of these patients were alive without any major amputation after 6 months. In this setting cell therapy has been proposed to stimulate angiogenesis. The first significant experience in humans was reported by TATEISHI-YUYAMA et al who showed that autologous implantation of bone marrow mononuclear cells (BM-MNC) was safe and increased blood flow in ischemic limbs resulting in clinical improvement. The same authors did not observe any efficacy of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PB-MNC). Subsequently other publications reported positive effects of PB-MNC which were harvested after previous treatment with haematopoietic growth factor to induce a mobilization of stem cells. However such a treatment could have deleterious effects in patients presenting with advanced arterial disease. In this context we propose a prospective bi-centric trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of autologous implantation of either BM-MNC or PB-MNC without previous mobilization with hematopoïetic factor, in patients with critical limb ischemia.

The trial is designed in two steps : a first series of eight patients are treated with BM-MNC and the following eight will receive PB-MNC. An interim analysis is planned after these first sixteen cases. Based on this analysis, it will be decided to include 12 further patients with each type of cells.Patients are consecutively included as soon as they present with appropriate criteria and are not selected to receive one or another type of cells.

Before implantation, MNC counts, differential and viability are determined. CD34+, CD34+/CD133+ and CD34+/CD133+/flk-1+ cells are counted by flow-cytometry.

Clinical symptoms and TcPO2 are monitored 1, 2, 7 and 14 days, 1, 3, and 6 months after cell implantation. Blood cell count, C-reactive protein, Interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-α, myoglobin, and creatinin-kinase are determined at day 0, 1, 3 and 7 ; blood vascular-endothelial-growth-factor (VEGF) level and CD34+, CD34+/CD133+ blood cells are measured before and 72 hours after implantation
