About this trial

This study, through different administration methods, adopted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial design to evaluate the safety and tolerability of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) in patients with Parkinson's disease, explore their initial effectiveness and the relationship between biological active factors and therapeutic efficacy. The "Clinical Study on the Treatment of Parkinson's Disease with Human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells" of this study is expected to provide clinical trial evidence for the development of safe and effective clinical cell therapies for patients with Parkinson's disease.

During the screening process, the participants must have had primary Parkinson's disease for at least 5 years, have a confirmed medical history record and meet the diagnostic criteria for primary Parkinson's disease as defined by the International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society (MDS);

During the screening, according to the MDS-UPDRS scoring scale, the Hoehn-Yahr classification of the "off" period of drug treatment is 2 to 4;

Disqualifiers

Trial design

Design model

Single group

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Human-derived stromal cells

    Biological/Vaccine

    The human-derived stromal cells were administered intravenously once every two weeks, for a total of 5 times. Among them, half of the subjects (10 people) received intranasal administration of human-derived stromal cells once a day, in the morning and evening, from the 6th to the 8th day after each administration; the remaining subjects (10 people) received nasal administration of placebo once a day, in the morning and evening, from the 6th to the 8th day after each administration.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

The safety and tolerability of hUC-MSCs will be assessed by monitoring the frequency of all adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs). Measure: Number of participants with AEs and SAEs

Time frame
From baseline up to 48 weeks
2

Severity of Adverse Events

Severity of AEs and SAEs will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) Version 5.0. Measure: Grade on NCI-CTCAE v5.0 scale

Time frame
From baseline up to 48 weeks
3

Safety Assessments: Vital Signs

Changes in vital signs including body temperature, heart rate, blood pressure, and oxygen saturation. Measure: Number of participants with clinically significant changes in vital signs

Time frame
From baseline up to 48 weeks
4

Safety Assessments: Laboratory Parameters

Changes in laboratory tests including complete blood count, coagulation profile, liver and kidney function, BNP, D-dimer, and serum troponin. Measure: Number of participants with clinically significant abnormal laboratory values

Time frame
From baseline up to 48 weeks

Secondary outcomes

1

Change in Motor Function as Assessed by MDS-UPDRS Part III

Change in severity of motor symptoms (e.g., tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia) using the MDS-UPDRS Part III score. Measure: Score on MDS-UPDRS Part III

Time frame
Baseline, 4, 16, 28, and 48 weeks
2

Change in Disease Staging as Assessed by Hoehn & Yahr Staging

Change in disease stage using the Hoehn \& Yahr Staging scale. Measure: Stage on Hoehn \& Yahr scale

Time frame
Baseline, 4, 16, 28, and 48 weeks
3

Change in Non-Motor Symptoms as Assessed by NMSS

Change in non-motor symptoms using the Non-Motor Symptoms Scale (NMSS). Measure: Score on NMSS

Time frame
Baseline, 4, 16, 28, and 48 weeks
4

Change in Depressive Symptoms as Assessed by HAMD

Change in depressive symptoms using the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD). Measure: Score on HAMD

Time frame
Baseline, 4, 16, 28, and 48 weeks
