About this study

Official title: Long Term Follow-Up Study of the Safety and Exploratory Efficacy of Pneumostem® in Premature Infants With Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia

This is a long term follow-up study of the open label, single-center, phase I clinical trial to evaluate the safety of Pneumostem® in premature infants with BPD.

Read the detailed description

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is the most common cause of death for premature newborns with low birth weights. In addition, many children who recover from the disease suffer from various complications such as prolonged hospitalization, pulmonary hypertension, and failure to thrive.

It has been reported that bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSC) can differentiate into pulmonary epithelial and pulmonary endothelial cells. Some animal studies showed that BM-MSCs differentiate into bronchial cells and type 2 pneumocytes in rats with pneumonia and improve the fibrosis that occur after administration of bleomycin. Based on the findings, it is considered that mesenchymal stem cell therapy can help regenerate the damaged lung as well as BPD that cause lung inflammation, fibrosis, deficiency of type 2 pneumocytes, and so on.

PNEUMOSTEM® consists of human umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells and is intended to treat BPD in premature infants. This is a long term follow-up study of the earlier part of the phase I clinical trial.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Pneumostem®Biological

    Also called Human umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells

    A single intratracheal administration

    Low Dose Group (3 patients): 1.0 x 10^7 cells/kg, High Dose Group (6 patients): 2 x 10^7 cells/kg

    • The subjects were administered with Pneumostem® in the earlier part of the phase I study. No drugs/biologics are administered during this part of the study.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of subjects with Adverse Drug Reaction

    Blood test, chest x-ray, physical exam

    Measured: at corrected age of 21 months (±3 months)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Neurological development test outcome from the subjects who were treated with Pneumostem®, compared with the patients who suffered from the same conditions but not treated with Pneumostem®

    Bayely test results of the 9 subjects who were treated with Pneumostem® during the early part of the Phase I study.

    The results of Brain MRI study performed at corrected age of 18-24 months.

    Measured: at corrected age of 10 months (±2 months) and 21 months (±3 months)

  2. Growth

    Body weight, Head circumference, Height : growth percentile

    Measured: Corrected gestational age of 4-6months, 8-12months, 18-24months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia, run by Samsung Medical Center at 2 sites in South Korea.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Apr 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in South Korea. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Number of subjects with Adverse Drug Reaction (time frame: at corrected age of 21 months (±3 months)). 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 NCT01632475, 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 9 Apr 2019.
