About this study

Official title: An Exploratory Clinical Trial to Assess Treatment of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis With Brain Transplants of Autologous Adipose-Tissue Derived Stem Cells (ADSCs)

The purpose of the study is to determine the safety and possible effectiveness of Autologous Adipose-Tissue Derived Stem Cells treatment in a Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis(ALS) patient.

Read the detailed description

This pilot clinical trial is design to see the safety and possible efficiency of ADSCs treatment in a ALS patient. one subjects will be treated (n=1). The patient will receive brain transplantation of ADSCs and combines intravenous infusion ADSCs 4 times. Subjects will be assessed by adverse effects and functional outcomes of clinical: PI max , PE max,and Haloscale respiration, ALS functional rating scale (ALS-FRS) are analyzed at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months 9 months and 12 months.

Brain MRI scans will be obtained before and after the treatment. Long term follow-up will be performed at 1, 6 , and 12months for safety reasons. Brain CT for check operation safety before and after brain implantation.

Timing of Study: 12months recruitment period after approvals

What participants receive

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

  • Autologous Adipose-Tissue Derived Stem CellsProcedure or surgery

    Also called ADSCs

    1. Intravenous and Intracerebral implantation of Autologous Adipose-Tissue Derived Stem Cells
    2. Patient will receive brain implantation of approximately 100 -400million Autologous Adipose-Tissue Derived Stem Cells.

    Patient will receive Intravenous of approximately 100-400 million Autologous Adipose-Tissue Derived Stem Cells twice , before brain implantation, and will receive Intravenous of approximately 100-400 million Autologous Adipose-Tissue Derived Stem Cells twice, after brain implantation .

What is being measured

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

  1. changes of ALS-FRS score

    using ALS-FRS score to assess patient's function after transplantation.

    Measured: Baseline-Day 28-Day 44-Day 60-6 months-9months-12months

  2. changes of respiratory function

    check the changes of respiratory functions after intervention .

    Measured: Baseline-Day 28-Day 44-Day 60-6 mouths-9mouths-12mouths

  3. changes of neurologic function

    check any changes of neurologic functions after intervention .

    Measured: Baseline-Day 28-Day 44-Day 60-6 mouths-9mouths-12mouths

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. changes of brain structure

    check changes of MRI after intervention

    Measured: Baseline-Day 60- 6 mounths-12 mounths

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Autologous Adipose-Tissue Derived Stem Cells in people with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, run by China Medical University Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 1 Feb 2016. 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 Taiwan. 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?

changes of ALS-FRS score (time frame: Baseline-Day 28-Day 44-Day 60-6 months-9months-12months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 1 Feb 2016.
