Filter by:This study is non-randomized, multicenter, confirmatory study by intrathecal administration of KP-100IT, code of HGF (Hepatocyte Growth Factor ) formulation for intrathecal injection, in subjects with acute spinal cord injury.
Patients with traumatic spinal cord injury (tSCI) often suffer from spinal cord swelling inside the thecal sac, which contains the spinal cord and surrounding fluid, leading to increased pressure on the spinal cord tissue and decreased spinal cord blood flow at the site of injury. The combination of increased pressure and decreased blood flow causes vascular hypo-perfusion of the spinal cord and exacerbates the severity of injury. This is also referred to as secondary injury. Thus, knowledge of spinal cord hypo-perfusion would allow the treating physician to optimize the hemodynamic condition of patient with acute spinal cord injury and potentially improve functional outcome. We plan to use contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) to determine decrease of blood flow in the spinal cord at the site of injury, during the routine surgery that these patients require to decompress and stabilize their injured spine. This may help us to determine the efficacy of certain treatments in improving blood flow and patients suffering from tSCI.
This was a prospective, multicentric, randomized, double blind, parallel, saline controlled Phase II clinical study to compare the safety and efficacy of PMZ-1620 (INN: Sovateltide) therapy along with standard supportive care in patients of acute spinal cord injury.
This multicenter study will enroll 100 patients with acute traumatic cervical and thoracic SCI who have a lumbar intrathecal catheter inserted within 24 hours of their injury. The lumbar intrathecal catheter will be inserted pre-operatively for the measurement of ITP and the collection of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples. SCPP will be calculated as the difference between MAP and the ITP. There are two important distinct yet related objectives in this prospective interventional study. 1. Determine the effect of SCPP maintenance ≥ 65 mmHg in acute SCI on neurologic recovery as measured by ASIA Impairment Scale (AIS) grade conversion and motor score improvement. 2. Collect CSF and blood samples for the measurement of neurochemical biomarkers and storage for future biomarker discovery and validation studies.
The study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of functional neural regeneration collagen scaffold transplanted into acute spinal cord injury patients.
This study is designed to assess the safety and effect of autologous adipose derived stem cell (ADSCs) transplantation in acute spinal cord injury patients. 1. To assess the safety of autologous ADSCs transplantation in acute spinal cord injury and the complication after ADSCs transplantation. 2. To evaluate the effect of ADSCs isolation and expansion procedure. 3. To determine if functional outcome is improved following ADSCs transplantation in acute spinal cord injury patient, using pre-transplantation spinal cord function as the control.
