Clinical Trial Summary

This trial will study the safety and efficacy of cultured allogeneic adult umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells for the treatment of Spinal Cord Injury.

Description:

Studies have shown that stem cell treatment is safe and efficacious for the treatment of Spinal Cord Injury (SCI). This patient funded trial aims to study the safety and efficacy of intravenous and intrathecal delivery of cultured allogeneic adult umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) for the treatment of SCI. The total dose will be 100 million cells. Patients will be evaluated within one month pre treatment and at 1, 6, 12, 24, 36, and 48 months post treatment for safety and efficacy.

For patients with more severe disease an autologous Effector cells (activated lymphocytes) treatment will be utilized created from the patient's own cells obtained by apheresis.
