About this study

Official title: 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.

Conditions

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Confirm the safety of autologous cord blood infusion and repeated injection of G-CSF in children with cerebral palsy by repeated follow-up every 3 months over 18 months with clinical and laboratory evaluations

    Measured: For 18 months from date of randomization

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Confirm the efficacy of autologous cord blood infusion and/or G-CSF in children with cerebral palsy using standardized Gross Motor Function Measure evaluation.

    Measured: Every 6 months from date of randomization up to 18 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing G-CSF (Leucostim) and CB (autologous cord blood) in people with Cerebral Palsy, run by Hanyang University Seoul Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 3 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 15 Aug 2016. 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 South Korea. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Young-Ho LEE, M.D., Ph.D. (82-2-2290-8383, cord@hanyang.ac.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Confirm the safety of autologous cord blood infusion and repeated injection of G-CSF in children with cerebral palsy by repeated follow-up every 3 months over 18 months with clinical and laboratory evaluations (time frame: For 18 months from date of randomization). 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 15 Aug 2016.
