About this study

Official title: The Research of Autologous Adipose Mesenchymal Stem Cell Transplantation for Treatment of Facial 、Auditory Nerve Dysfunction of Patients With Hemifacial Spasm After Microvascular Decompression.

Main purpose:In the face of listening to nerve injury at early stage, utilizing autologous adipose stem cell transplantation in the treatment of makes the acceptance micro vascular decompression hemifacial spasm patients to nerve function to obtain a better recovery.

Secondary purpose :To clarify the efficacy of stem cells in the treatment of cranial nerve dysfunction, and to provide evidence for the treatment of other cranial nerve dysfunction.

Cases in group:Appearing on the surface of microvascular decompression for hemifacial spasm to decrease neural electrophysiological index of patients research design:Single center, prospective, randomized, double-blind, controlled Observation index:Facial nerve clinical score, facial nerve muscle compound action potential, electrical measurement, cerebrospinal fluid index Evaluation of therapeutic effect:Facial nerve function evaluation (House-Brackmann classification, facial nerve function classification scale SFGS), facial nerve electrophysiology evaluation (facial nerve muscle compound action potential), electric measurement Safety evaluation:Clear evaluation of hemifacial spasm and micro vascular decompression were listening to nerve in intracranial segment wrapped around the autologous fat stem cell therapy overall safety and evaluation methods including adverse events, laboratory tests, vital signs, electrocardiogram.

Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Autologous adipose stem cell therapy and Mecobalamin in people with Injury of Facial Nerve, Unspecified Side, Initial Encounter, run by Xinhua Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine.

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 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Aug 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

House-Brackmann facial nerve grading scale (time frame: up to 3 months). 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 9 Aug 2016.
