Abstract:
:A new model of tissue-engineered artificial autologous human skin developed in Andalusia is currently being transplanted into patients suffering from large burns within the Andalusian Public Healthcare System. This product is considered an advanced therapy medicinal product (ATMP) in Europe, and its clinical use implies meeting transplant and medicinal product legal requirements, being the Guidelines of Good Manufacturing Practice for ATMPs of particular importance. The preclinical research and clinical translation of the product have represented a technical, regulatory, and organizational challenge, which has taken 10 years since the first preclinical experiments were designed. Twelve patients with large burns, including 3 pediatric patients, have hitherto received artificial autologous skin grafts with an overall survival rate of 75% and positive clinical, homeostatic, and histologic results. Achieving such a milestone within our Healthcare System was possible through a multidisciplinary approach and the joint efforts of multiple publicly funded institutions and units under the coordination of the Andalusian Initiative for Advanced Therapies. In this article, we present the organizational model set up to facilitate collaboration and logistics among the professionals involved, totaling more than 80 people. The similarities between the tissue-engineered artificial autologous human skin transplant and other organ and tissue transplants, in terms of logistic requirements, reveal how regional and hospital transplant coordination have played a crucial role.
