About this study

This is a single-center, single-arm, dose escalation study, to explore the safety, tolerability and efficacy of human amniotic epithelial stem cells (hAESCs) for idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD).

Read the detailed description

hAESCs will be administration through the Ommaya reservoir implanted into the lateral ventricle of subjects with idiopathic PD.

This dose escalation will be followed by an exploratory expansion phase in 3 cohorts.

  • Dose A (5×10^7 cells/dose)
  • Dose B (1.0×10^8 cells/dose)
  • Dose C (1.5×10^8 cells/dose).

What is being measured

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

  1. Dose limiting toxicity (DLT)

    The occurrence of DLT.

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Number of participants with adverse event (AE), serious adverse event(SAE) and adverse events of special interest (AESI)

    According to CTCAE V5.0, AE, SAE and AESI evaluated by laboratory examination, measurement of vital signs, physical examination, and subjects' symptoms to detect new abnormalities and/or deterioration of previous conditions.

    AESI is defined as intracranial infection, hemorrhage, rejection, edema, as well as acute allergic reactions and ectopic mass formation associated with the therapy.

    Measured: 12 Months

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Change from baseline in the UPDRS-III (Unified Parkinson's Rating Scale part III/motor part) scores

    UPDRS is used for evaluating the impairment and disability associated with PD. It consists of 4 sections: I Mentation, behavior, and mood; II Activities of daily living (ADLs); III Motor; and IV Complications.The UPDRS score ranges from 0 to 199, with higher score indicating greater disability

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Change from baseline in the UPDRS off-time total scores

    UPDRS is used for evaluating the impairment and disability associated with PD. It consists of 4 sections: I Mentation, behavior, and mood; II Activities of daily living (ADLs); III Motor; and IV Complications.The UPDRS score ranges from 0 to 199, with higher score indicating greater disability

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Change from baseline in the UPDRS on-time total scores

    UPDRS is used for evaluating the impairment and disability associated with PD. It consists of 4 sections: I Mentation, behavior, and mood; II Activities of daily living (ADLs); III Motor; and IV Complications.The UPDRS score ranges from 0 to 199, with higher score indicating greater disability

    Measured: 12 months

  4. Change from baseline in sum of the UPDRS-II and UPDRS-III scores

    UPDRS is used for evaluating the impairment and disability associated with PD. It consists of 4 sections: I Mentation, behavior, and mood; II Activities of daily living (ADLs); III Motor; and IV Complications.The UPDRS score ranges from 0 to 199, with higher score indicating greater disability

    Measured: 12 months

  5. Changes from baseline in the Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire (PDQ-39) scores

    The PDQ-39 is a self-completed questionnaire assessing how often people with Parkinson's experience difficulties across 8 dimensions of daily living with 39 questions . Questions are answered using a 5-point ordinal scoring system: 0 = never, 1 = occasionally, 2 = sometimes, 3 = often, 4 = always. Each scores range from 0 = never have difficulty to 100 = always have difficulty.The higher the score, the lower the quality of life of PD patients.

    Measured: 12 months

  6. Changes in the Hamilton Depression-17 (HAMD-17) Scale scores

    The HAMD-17 Scale is the most widely used scale in clinical evaluation of depression in PD patients. This project takes 8 points as the critical value of depression, and the total score over 35 points is considered as severe depression, more than 20 points is likely to be diagnosed with depression, less than 8 points is not depressed.

    Measured: 12 months

  7. Change from baseline in the Parkinson's Disease Sleep Scale (PDSS) scores

    The PDSS is a visual analogue scale addressing 15 commonly reported symptoms associated with sleep disturbance overall quality of night's sleep (item 1), sleep onset and maintenance insomnia (items 2 and 3), nocturnal restlessness (items 4 and 5), nocturnal psychosis (items 6 and 7), nocturia (items 8 and 9), nocturnal motor symptoms (items 10-13), sleep refreshment (item 14) and daytime dozing (item 15). Scores range from 0 (poorly or often) to 10 (very good or never), with a total score of <90 indicating sleep disturbance, with higher scores indicating better sleep quality.

    Measured: 12 months

  8. Changes from baseline in the Hoehn and Yahr scale (H-Y)

    The Hoehn and Yahr scale is used to provide a general estimate of clinical function of PD patients, combining functional deficits (disability) and objective signs (impairment). The Hoehn and Yahr score ranges from 0 to 5, with higher score indicating higher dysfunction of PD patients.

    Measured: 12 months

  9. Changes from baseline in the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE)

    The total score of tne MMSE ranges from 0 to 30, with a higher score indicating better function for Cognitive assessment.

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing hAESCs in people with Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease, run by Shanghai East Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 10 inclusion and 19 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 17 Feb 2023. 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 China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Jingwen Wu, M.D. (021-38804518, wujingwendongfang@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Dose limiting toxicity (DLT) (time frame: 12 months). The study lists 2 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 17 Feb 2023.
