About this study

Official title: Evaluation the Side Effects of Bone Marrow Derived CD133 Cells Transplantation in Cerebral Palsy Patients

Cerebral palsy (CP) is condition, sometimes thought of as a group of disorders that can involve brain and nervous system functions such as movement, learning, hearing, seeing, and thinking.Cerebral palsy is caused by injuries or abnormalities of the brain. Most of these problems occur as the baby grows in the womb, but they can happen at any time during the first 2 years of life, while the baby's brain is still developing.Bone marrow derived stem cells are known as a effective therapy.

In this study the investigators evaluate the side effect of bone marrow stem cell transplantation in patients with cerebral palsy.

Read the detailed description

Our study evaluate the side effects of bone marrow derived CD133 cells transplantation in 4-12years old patients with cerebral palsy.first all the patients undergone a comprehensive evaluation(physical exam, serology tests,EEG,MRI,GMFM66).

After bone marrow aspiration,autologous stem cells prepare for each patient. In operation room ,the cells are transplanted by intrathecal injection. all the patients would be under observed to notice acute side effects and 3,6,9 and 12 months after injection they will be followed and evaluate by comprehensive tests.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing CD133 stem cell injection in people with Cerebral Palsy, run by Royan Institute at 1 site in Iran.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Mar 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Iran. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

allergic reaction (time frame: 1 month). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01404663, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Mar 2018.
