About this study

Official title: 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.

Read the 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.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • HPDSCDrug

    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.

  • Cord bloodDrug

    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.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of subjects with infusion reaction as a measure of safety and tolerability

    Any infusion reaction to autologous human placental-derived stem cells (HPDSC) administered in conjunction autologous cord blood in neonates with severe hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy will be assessed for safety and tolerability

    Measured: within the first 30 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Improvement in neurological condition

    Improvement in neurological condition as shown on head MRI, DTI and neurological development by Sarnat testing.

    Measured: 2 years post HPDSC infusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing HPDSC and Cord blood in people with Severe Hypoxic-ischemic Encephalopathy, run by New York Medical College at 1 site in United States.

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 6 inclusion and 5 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Feb 2021. 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 United States. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of subjects with infusion reaction as a measure of safety and tolerability (time frame: within the first 30 days). 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 23 Feb 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
