Intermediate Size Patient Population Expanded Access IND for the Treatment of Patients With Parkinson's Disease.

An Intermediate Size Patient Population Expanded Access IND to Evaluate the Safety of Autologous HB-adMSCs for the Treatment of Patients With Parkinson's Disease.

This Expanded Access IND is to evaluate the safety of multiple intravenous administrations of HB-adMSCs for treating Parkinson's disease in 10 patients between 76 and 95 y/o who do not qualify for other investigations.The dose to use for this expanded access is 200 million HB-adMSCs, administered through intravenous infusion only, with a treatment duration of 18 weeks. The program includes an up to 28 days screening period, an 18-week Treatment Period, and a 6-week Safety Follow-up Period.

Detailed Description

This expanded access program is designed to include adult male and female outpatients with Parkinson's disease with ages between 76 and 95 y/o.

-Screening During the Screening Visit, each patient who participates in the expanded access program must sign an informed consent form that the IRB has approved before any related procedures can be performed.

In addition to completing the informed consent process, the designated personnel are responsible for conducting the evaluations listed in the Schedule of Assessments. These evaluations include the following:

  • Collection of vital signs, demographic information, and concomitant medications.
  • Evaluation of the eligibility requirements for participation in the expanded access program.
  • Weight and height measurements.
  • Lab sample collection. (Comprehensive Metabolic Panel, Complete Blood Count & Coagulation Tests).
  • Physical examination.
  • Parkinson's disease assessments. (MDS-UPDRS, PDQ-39, PFS-16, PHQ-9, and VAS). Once these assessments have been performed and the results of laboratory tests have been obtained, the principal investigator must evaluate whether the screened patient is eligible to participate in the expanded access program. If a participant meets the eligibility requirements for participation in the expanded access program, infusion number 1 (the baseline visit) must be scheduled.

    • Infusions Every patient who qualifies for participation in the expanded access program will be invited to receive autologous HB-adMSCs infusions. The administration of investigational products will take place at the Hope Biosciences Stem Cell Research Foundation, where the delegated personnel will closely monitor patients' vital signs.

Following the Sponsor Standard Operating Procedures, Hope Biosciences autologous adipose- derived mesenchymal stem cells should be mixed and administered to each eligible patient. HB-adMSCs should only be administered intravenously and a vital sign monitoring of two hours post-drug exposure. Monitoring intervals of 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, and 120 minutes.

Additional to the administration of the investigational product, the delegated personnel should complete the following assessments.

  • Collection of vital signs, as well as updates on medical history and concomitant medications if needed.
  • Weight measurement.
  • Collection of laboratory samples at INF 1 and INF 5. (Comprehensive Metabolic Panel, Complete Blood Count& Coagulation Tests).
  • Physical examination.
  • Parkinson's disease assessments. (MDS-UPDRS, PDQ-39, PFS-16, PHQ-9, and VAS).
  • Video documentation at INF 1 and INF 5 to evaluate the patient's gait, facial expression, and other symptoms associated with the disease.
  • Determination of the incidence of AEs and SAEs. Immediately following the completion of each infusion, the patient should be assessed to ensure that the post-infusion discharge criteria have been met.

    • Follow Up A follow-up will be conducted during this visit. Delegated personnel will communicate with the patient to determine whether any adverse events or serious adverse events have occurred since the last visit. Also, during this visit, updates on medical history and concomitant medications must be recorded in the patient's chart if needed.
    • End of Expanded Access Program

Patients will be assessed by delegated personnel on the last visit of the expanded access program, which will take place at week 26. The following assessments will be performed:

  • Collection of vital signs, as well as updates on medical history and concomitant medications if needed.
  • Weight measurement.
  • Collection of laboratory samples. (Comprehensive Metabolic Panel, Complete Blood Count& Coagulation Tests).
  • Physical examination.
  • Parkinson's disease assessments. (MDS-UPDRS, PDQ-39, PFS-16, PHQ-9, and VAS).
  • Video documentation to evaluate the patient's gait, facial expression, and other symptoms associated with the disease.
  • Determination of the incidence of AEs and SAEs.

Description

Inclusion Criteria

A participant will be eligible for inclusion in this expanded access program only if all the following criteria apply:

  1. Patients aged 76-95 years old (male and female).
  2. Patients must have had a Parkinson's disease diagnosis for a minimum of six months before 1st infusion.
  3. Patients must have previously banked their mesenchymal stem cells with Hope Biosciences.
  4. Patients should be able to read, understand, and provide voluntarily written consent.
  5. Patients able and willing to comply with the requirements of this expanded access program.

Exclusion Criteria

A participant will not be eligible for inclusion in this expanded access program if any of the following criteria apply:

  1. Patients with advanced Parkinson's disease. Advanced PD is defined as a significant disability, wheelchair-bound or bedridden.
  2. Any malignancy or clinical evidence that supports the presence of a malignant process in a patient is being investigated. Malignancy is defined as any form of cancer that had occurred in the previous five years before the first infusion and may require surgery, chemotherapy, or radiation.
  3. Patients with medical history of uncontrolled high blood pressure defined as a deficient standard of care treatment and/or blood pressure > 140/90 mm/Hg during screening visit.
  4. Patients with the following concomitant or past medical history:

    • Heart Failure - New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III/IV.
    • Heart Attack (in the past six months before 1st infusion).
    • Stroke (in the past six months before 1st infusion).

    • Platelet count < 80 K/UL and or > 450 K/UL.
    • White blood cell count WBC < 3.0 K/UL and > 12.0 K/UL.

  7. Patients who are unlikely to complete the visits or adhere to the procedures.
  8. The patient has previously been diagnosed with a psychiatric disorder, which is currently uncontrolled.
  9. Patients with a history of addiction or dependency or currently abusing or using substances.
