Clinical Trial Description

Our working hypothesis is that the injection of autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMNC) has a positive effect on the natural loss of motor units and on the increase in the size of the motor unit that occurs in patients with ALS during the evolution of the disease. This hypothesis is based on experimental work done in animal models of ALS and the results of our previous phase I clinical trial. In this clinical trial (TCIM / ALS, ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02286011) we studied with electrophysiological techniques (in a small number of patients with ALS) the effects of intramuscular injection of a single dose of BMSC in the tibialis anterioris (TA) muscle. . The results indicate that this is a safe procedure and show the presence of a positive and apparently transitory effect on the size and number of motor units of the TA muscle. ;
