Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of multiple treatments of hAESCs treatments, while exploring the effectiveness of hAESCs treatments for PD.

Description:

The study plans to use randomized controlled trial and recruit 12 participants with Idiopathic Parkinson's disease. The trial will be divided into two groups, hAESCs treatment group and control group, each group 6 subjects. Through surgical robot technology, hAESCs will be precisely multiple transplanted into the lateral ventricles, that is two times consolidation hAESCs treatments or placebo were added to the four times basic hAESCs treatments. Therapeutic safety and effectiveness of multiple treatments of hAESCs on PD will be evaluated to further develop the optimal stem cell treatment strategy.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Number of participants with adverse event (AE), serious adverse event(SAE) and adverse events of special interest(AESI)	AE occurring throughout the study period will be evaluated using the CTCAE V5.0 standard. AE/SAE and AESI were evaluated after Ommaya sac installation by laboratory examination, measurement of vital signs, physical examination, and subjects' symptoms to detect new abnormalities and/or deterioration of previous conditions and evaluate the safety of the study.; AESI is defined as intracranial infection, hemorrhage, rejection, and edema within 7 days after Ommaya sac installation, as well as acute allergic reactions and ectopic mass formation associated with study therapy.	12 Months
Secondary	Changes in Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) in OFF state between the experimental group and the control group at 12 months after the first hAESCs treatment	UPDRS is used for evaluating the impairment and disability associated with Parkinson's Disease (PD). It consists of four sections: (1) Mentation, behavior, and mood; (2) Activities of daily living (ADLs); (3) Motor; and (4) Complications.; The UPDRS score ranges from 0 to 199, with higher score indicating greater disability	day 0, 1 month, 2 month, 3 month, 6 month, 9 month and 12 month.
Secondary	Changes in the Hoehn and Yahr scale	Hoehn and Yahr scale is used to provide a general estimate of clinical function of PD patients, combining functional deficits (disability) and objective signs (impairment). The Hoehn and Yahr score ranges from 0 to 5, with higher score indicating higher dysfunction of PD patients.	day 0, 1 month, 2 month, 3 month, 6 month, 9 month and 12 month.
Secondary	Changes in the Schwab and England score	The Schwab and England score develop a scale that describes the capacity of daily living shown by a PD patients. It measures the following three areas: dependence, abilities, and awareness. The Schwab and England score range from o% to 100%, with higher scores indicating greater healthy status.	day 0, 1 month, 2 month, 3 month, 6 month, 9 month and 12 month.
Secondary	Changes in the Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire (PDQ-39)	PDQ-39 provides the evidence of the quality of life of a PD patient. The higher the score, the lower the quality of life of PD patients.	day 0, 1 month, 2 month, 3 month, 6 month, 9 month and 12 month.
Secondary	Changes in the Hamilton Depression (HAMD) Scale	HAMD is the most widely used scale in clinical evaluation of depression in PD patients. This project takes 8 points as the critical value of depression, and the total score over 35 points is considered as severe depression, more than 20 points is likely to be diagnosed with depression, less than 8 points is not depressed.	day 0, 1 month, 2 month, 3 month, 6 month, 9 month and 12 month.
Secondary	Differences in biochemical indicators of cerebrospinal fluid	Cerebrospinal fluid indicator tests include biochemical indicators and the following parameters: Dopamine (DA), high vanillic acid (HVA), 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA), norepinephrine (MHPG), a synuclein (a-synuclein), amyloid deposition (Aß42), Tau protein (Tau) Protein, Neurofilament light (NF-L), and yKL-40 (YKL-40).	day 0, 1 month, 2 month, 3 month, 6 month, 9 month and 12 month.
Secondary	Cranial dopamin transporter measured by positron emission tomography (PET)- magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)	Changes of cranial expression of dopamine transporter investigated by PET-MR	4 month, 6 month, 12 month
Secondary	Glucose metabolism measured by 18F-Fluoro-2-deoxy-glucose (FDG) PET scan	Changes of cranial glucose metabolism investigated by PET-MR	4 month, 6 month, 12 month
