Clinical Trial Summary

Primary Objective: To assess the safety profile of autologous MitoCell administered to subjects with idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD) Secondary Objective: To explore the efficacy and safety of MitoCell given as the recommended dose by stereotactic intrastriatal implantation


Description:

MitoCell is an autologous stem cell product that cultures with the company's unique patented medium. The mechanism of action of MitoCell is to improve the brain microenvironment in neurodegenerative disease. MitoCell which like mesenchymal stem cells modulate the immune response, and secrete more BDNF and SDF-1 neurotrophic factors than regular stem cell products.Therefore, MitoCell can protect and repair damaged dopamine neurons (DA) and stimulate DA regeneration.This project is a phase I open-label dose-escalation study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of autologous MitoCell intracranial transplantation in subjects with idiopathic Parkinson's disease which rating from stage 3 ~ 4 of modified Hoehn & Yahr staging.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Grading of Adverse Events Grading will be assessed using NCI CTCAE, version 5.0. within 48 weeks after MitoCell transplantation
Primary Routine physical examinations Safety of Mitocell will be assessed by routine physical examinations. Physical examination conducted in this study will include general appearance, skin, eyes, ears, nose,throat, head and neck, heart, chest and lungs, abdomen, extremities, lymph nodes, musculoskeletal,neurological, etc. within 48 weeks after MitoCell transplantation
Primary Changes in physical examinations: clinical standard neurological examination [Safety of Mitocell] Clinical standard neurological examination by study investigator. Changes in motor function, sensory function, cranial nerve function (visual fields), cortical functions and reflexes are followed in the examination, scored as normal - abnormal without clinical relevance - abnormal with clinical relevance within 48 weeks after MitoCell transplantation
Primary Changes in vital signs: blood pressure [Safety of Mitocell] Changes in blood pressure during the study , measured as systolic and diastolic blood pressure (in mmHg) within 48 weeks after MitoCell transplantation
Primary Changes in vital signs: pulse rate [Safety of Mitocell] Changes in pulse rate during the study (in beats per minute) within 48 weeks after MitoCell transplantation
Primary Changes in vital signs: body temperature [Safety of Mitocell] Changes in body temperature during the study (in degrees celsius) within 48 weeks after MitoCell transplantation
Primary Changes in clinical laboratory safety screen: haematology - hemoglobin [Safety of Mitocell] Changes in laboratory variables for haematology: hemoglobin (g/L). Result evaluated as "normal", "abnormal without clinical relevance" or "abnormal with clinical relevance" within 48 weeks after MitoCell transplantation

Secondary PDQ-39 (Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire) Change in PDQ-39 scale compared to the baseline. The PDQ-39 is a 39 questions Parkinson's Disease self-completed questionnaire that comprises 8 domains: mobility (10 items), activities of daily living (6 items), emotional well-being (6 items), stigma (4 items), social support (3 items), cognition (4 items), communication (3 items) and bodily discomfort (3 items). All items are assumed to impact QoL and must be answered to compute scores for each dimension. Questions are answered based on experiences from the preceding month using a 5-point ordinal scoring system: 0 = never, 1 = occasionally, 2 = sometimes, 3 = often, 4 = always. Each scores range from 0 = never have difficulty to 100 = always have difficulty. at 12, 24, 48 weeks
Secondary Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II) scores Net change from baseline in BDI-II scores. BDI-II Scale is a 21-item self-reported questionnaire which measures the existence and severity of symptoms of depression. Each of the 21 items on BDI-II tool represents a depressive symptom. The symptoms are each scored on a 4-point Likert scale of 0 to 3 (0=symptom is absent; 3=symptom is severe). Scores for each symptom are added up to obtain the total scores for all 21 items. Total score ranges from 0-63; of which 0-8 is considered no depression, 0-13 is minimal depression, 14-19 is mild depression, 20-28 is moderate depression and 29-63 is severe depression. at 48 weeks
Secondary Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D-17) scores Net change from baseline in HAM-D-17 scores. The HAMD-17 is a 17-item assessment used to assess the severity of depression and its improvement during the course of therapy. Each item was evaluated and scored using either a 5-point scale of 0 (not present/absent) to 4 (very severe) or a 3-point scale of 0 (not present/absent) to 2 (marked). Higher scores indicate greater symptom severity. The total score was the sum of the scores from HAMD-17 Items 1 through 17 and ranged from 0 (not at all depressed) to 52 (severely depressed). at 48 weeks
Secondary Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) Scores Net change from baseline in MMSE scores. The MMSE uses a 30 point questionnaire to measure cognitive impairment. The MMSE is scored from 0 to 30,with a score equal to or greater than 24 points indicating normal cognition, a score of 19-23 points indicating mild cognitive impairment, 10-18 points indicating moderate impairment and a score equal to or below 9 indicating severe impairment. at 48 weeks
