Detailed Descriptions

Sequence: 20639376
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.

Description Changes in blood pressure during the study , measured as systolic and diastolic blood pressure (in mmHg) Description Changes in pulse rate during the study (in beats per minute) Description Changes in body temperature during the study (in degrees celsius) Description Grading will be assessed using NCI CTCAE, version 5.0. Description 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. Description 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 Description Changes in laboratory variables for haematology: hemoglobin (g/L). Result evaluated as "normal", "abnormal without clinical relevance" or "abnormal with clinical relevance" Description Changes in laboratory variables for haematology: Platelet count (10E9/L). Result evaluated as "normal", "abnormal without clinical relevance" or "abnormal with clinical relevance" Description Changes in laboratory variables for haematology: Cell counts (10E9/L) for total WBC, neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils and basophils. Result evaluated as "normal", "abnormal without clinical relevance" or "abnormal with clinical relevance" Description Changes in laboratory variables for haematology: INR (standardized prothrombin time) to determine the effects of oral anticoagulants on the clotting system. Result evaluated as "normal", "abnormal without clinical relevance" or "abnormal with clinical relevance" Description Changes in laboratory variables for haematology: aPTT (sec) . Result evaluated as "normal", "abnormal without clinical relevance" or "abnormal with clinical relevance" Description Safety of Mitocell will be assessed by any clinically significant abnormalities on ECG results as compared to Baseline. A standard 12-lead ECG was measured by using ECG machine that automatically measured PR, QRS, QT, and QTcF intervals. Description Safety of Mitocell will be assessed by any clinically significant abnormalities on MRI scans as compared to Baseline. Description Change in MDS-UPDRS motor (Part III) "OFF" score compared to the baseline. All items have 5 response options with uniform anchors of: 0 = normal, 1 = slight (symptoms/signs with sufficiently low frequency or intensity to cause no impact on function), 2 = mild (symptoms/signs of frequency or intensity sufficient to cause a modest impact on function, 3 = moderate (symptoms/signs sufficiently frequent or intense to impact considerably, but not prevent function), 4 = severe (symptoms/signs that prevent function). Description Change in Modified Hoehn & Yahr staging compared to the baseline. Description Degree of radiotracer uptake increment/decrement shown on striatum of 18F-DOPA PET compared to the baseline. Description Reduction of Parkinson's medications consumption by calculating levodopa equivalent daily dose (LEDD) compared to the baseline. Description 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. Description 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. Description 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). Description 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.
