About this study

Official title: SAfety of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells for Ischemic Stroke

The purpose of this study is to determine if mesenchymal stem cells given by IV is feasible and safe in patients with recent ischemic stroke and to decide the maximum tolerated dose when given between 3-10 days after an ischemic stroke.

Read the detailed description

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled study. . Approximately 48 subjects will be enrolled in the trial, undergo a real or SHAM MSC IV infusion and will be follow out to 1 year. There will potentially be 4 Cohorts with the dose escalation at a 3:1 randomization schedule

Objectives:

  • The primary hypothesis' are that intravenous administration of allogeneic bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells is feasible and safe in patients with recent ischemic stroke and to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of IV MSCs when administered sub-acutely between 3-10 days following ischemic stroke.
  • The secondary hypothesis is that allogeneic MSC transplantation will improve functional outcome after recent ischemic stroke.

Safety and clinical efficacy points to be evaluated at Day 7 clinic visit, Day 30, Day 60, Day 90, and Day 180. Primary outcome or Primary endpoint of the study is to define the safety or harm of the MSCs

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing MSC Infusion in people with Ischemic Stroke, run by Sean Savitz.

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 7 inclusion and 14 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Apr 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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

What does this combined 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.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of IV MSCs (time frame: 24 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 18 Apr 2018.
