Autologous Cord Blood and Human Placental Derived Stem Cells in Neonates With Severe Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy (HPDSC+HIE)

February 19, 2021 updated by: New York Medical College

A Safety and Feasibility Study of Autologous Cord Blood (CB) and Human Placental Derived Stem Cells (HPDSC) in Neonates With Severe Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE)

The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and effectiveness of autologous human placental-derived stem cells (HPDSC) in combination with autologous cord blood in neonates with severe hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy.

Detailed Description

The primary aim of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability and feasibility of intravenous administration of autologous cord blood (CB) and autologous human placental derived stem cells (HPDSC) in neonates with severe hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). It is hypothesized that the administration of autologous CB and autologous HPDSC will be safe and well tolerated in neonates with severe HIE.

Additionally, postnatal neuro-developmental outcomes in neonates with HIE after autologous CB and HPDSC therapy will be measured; HIE injury to the neonate/infant brain post autologous CB and HPDSC therapy by imaging will be characterized; the pluripotent stem cell properties of CB and HPDSC will be characterized; serum levels of selected circulating cytokine and neurotrophic factors in neonates with HIE before and after autologous CB and HPDSC therapy will be compared and immune cell phenotype and function in neonates with HIE before and after autologous CB and HPDSC therapy will be compared.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Autologous Cord Blood and HPDSC
Autologous cord blood and placental blood will be collected after birth of child and administered in divided aliquots during the first week of life.
Autologous HPDSC collected after birth will be infused in aliquots. one-half of the HPDSC infused on Day 2; one-half of the collected HPDSC will be infused on Day 8.
Autologous Cord Blood collected after birth will be infused in aliquots. One-third of the collected cord blood will be infused within the first 24 hours after birth (Day 0); one-third of the collected cord blood will be infused on day 3; and one-third of the collected cord blood unit will be infused on Day 7.
