G-CSF and Autologous Cord Blood Infusion in Cerebral Palsy

August 10, 2016 updated by: Young-Ho Lee, Hanyang University Seoul Hospital

Phase II, Randomized, Double-blind Clinical Trial for Efficacy of G-CSF and Autologous Cord Blood Infusion in Children With Cerebral Palsy

This study is performed to reveal the safety and feasibility of combination therapy with autologous cord blood mononuclear cells (CB) and G-CSF as well as repeated administration of G-CSF for children with cerebral palsy. The evaluation tools are as follows: (1) Developmental tests (DDST, PEDI, GMFM, GMFCS, MACS, QUEST), (2) Neurocognitive function test (WPPSI-IV), (3) Brain MRI-DTI, (4) Peripheral blood CD34+ cell counts, (5) Neurotrophic factors/anti-inflammatory cytokines.
