December 26, 2011 updated by: Manipal Acunova Ltd.

Phase II Intravenous Autologous Bone Marrow-derived Stem Cells Therapy for Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke

A multi-centric initiative to study safety,feasibility and efficacy of using intravenous autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells(BMMC) in patients with acute ischemic stroke.This phase of study is visualised as phase 2 study and will aim to determine dose response gradient of stem cell therapy and to explore if there is favorable risk to benefit ratio for autologous stem cell therapy in patient with acute ischamic stroke.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This phase of the study will have two arms developed through random allocation: one arm for intravenous autologous bone marrow derived stem cell/mononuclear cells(BMMC arm); and second control arm. Patients with acute ischaemic stroke between 7-30 days after onset with moderae severity in sable condition will be entered into the study after informed consent. Both arms will receive standard treatment but BMMC arm will,in addition,have bone marrow aspiration and receive autologous 30-500 million bone marrow mononuclear cells intravenously on the day of randomisation and all patients will be followed at DaY 7 ± days, Day 90(-7 days to +14 days), Day 180(-7 days to +28 days)and Day 365 (-7 days to + 28 days). A number of safety and efficacy variables will be measured. This phase 2 study will aim to determine dose response gradient of stem cell therapy and to explore if results have a favourable risk to benefit ratio to justify a phase 3 study. This will be the first human trial to determine and compare favourable and unfavourable effects of bone marrow mononuclear cells(mainly CD34) in acute ischamic stroke and also the first multi-centric study with potential to achieve a reasonable sample size in a relatively short time.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description

Barthel index score

The primary efficacy outcome is difference between the two groups in the modified Barthel index score at six month post randomization.
six month post randomization

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
