About this study

This is a 5-year long-term follow-up study of open label, single-center, phase I clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of PNEUMOSTEM® in premature infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia.

Read the detailed description

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is the most common cause of death for prematurely born babies with low birth weights. In addition, many children who recover from this 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. The purpose of the study is to evaluate 3-5 year long term safety and efficacy in patients who completed the earlier part of the phase I clinical trial of PNEUMOSTEM®.

What participants receive

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

  • PNEUMOSTEMBiological

    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): 2.0 x 10^7 cells/kg

    • The subjects were administered with Pneumostem in the earlier part of the Phase I study. No drug/biologics will be administered to any subject 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 reactions

    adverse drug reactions, clinically significant laboratory findings, vital signs, physical exam

    Measured: 60 months (corrected age)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Respiratory outcomes

    • hospital readmission rates and length of stay
    • whether medical interventions such as oxygen, steroid, or bronchodilator therapy was done and duration of the therapy
    • Frequency of Emergency Room visit (total number of visits/ number of visits due to respiratory illnesses)

    Measured: 60 months (corrected age)

  2. Survival

    Measured: 60 months (corrected age)

  3. Z-score

    • weight
    • height
    • head circumference
    • percentile

    Measured: 60 months (corrected age)

  4. Potential neurological development test outcomes

    • K-ASQ (Korean Ages and Stages Questionnaires),
    • Bayley test (BSID III)

    Measured: 60 months (corrected age)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia and Respiratory Tract Infections, run by Medipost Co Ltd. at 1 site 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 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Sep 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 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?

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?

Number of subjects with adverse drug reactions (time frame: 60 months (corrected age)). 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 4 Sep 2018.
