This Phase II randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial tests autologous mesenchymal stem-cell (MSC) infusions in people with Multiple System Atrophy (MSA). Participants are assigned to receive an IV infusion of MSCs or a saline placebo and are followed to assess function and quality of life. Outcomes include change in the Unified Multiple System Atrophy Rating Scale (UMSARS) and a health-related quality-of-life measure at 48 weeks.

What it is studying. Whether an IV infusion of autologous neuroinduced mesenchymal stem cells changes motor and functional outcomes and quality of life compared with placebo in people with MSA.

What the researchers hope to learn. To evaluate the safety and efficacy of autologous MSC therapy in MSA and to measure change in disease severity (UMSARS) and health-related quality of life (SF-36) at 48 weeks.

What this study is about

The study's own summary, as published on ClinicalTrials.gov. Underlined terms have a short explanation.

This study investigates the safety and efficacy of autologous stem cell therapy in patients with Multiple System Atrophy (MSA), a rare and progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by autonomic failure, parkinsonism, and cerebellar ataxia. The trial will evaluate functional outcomes, motor performance, and quality of life compared to placebo/controlled group.

AI summaryWhat participation may involve, in plain languageShow ▾Hide ▴

AI-written from the registry record, not the study's own wording. May contain errors or omissions. Check the registry text on this page and the original record ↗ before acting on it.

Participants are randomly assigned (double‑blind) to receive either an IV infusion of 200,000,000 neuroinduced mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) or a matching saline placebo. The infusion is given at week 1 and participants are followed with clinical assessments through week 48, including the Unified Multiple System Atrophy Rating Scale (UMSARS) and the SF‑36 quality‑of‑life questionnaire. Visits will include clinical exams and questionnaires; the registry does not list other specific procedures or sample collections.

How the study is structured. Participants are randomly assigned, and neither participants nor investigators know who receives which treatment (double-blind). One group receives a single IV infusion of 200,000,000 neuroinduced mesenchymal stem cells at week 1; the other receives a volume- and appearance-matched saline placebo. Participants are followed and assessed up to 48 weeks to measure symptoms and quality of life.

Questions you could ask

These questions are suggestions for a conversation with the study team or your own clinician, not advice.

  • Some participants receive a placebo. How is that decided, and what happens for placebo-group participants when the study ends?
  • The registry says recruitment has not started. When is it expected to open, and can I register interest now?
  • The listed sites are in Poland. Is any of them reachable for me, and does the study help with travel?
  • Which of the eligibility criteria would need to be checked with tests before I could join?

Terms used on this page · explanations by MedicalUpdates.ai

placebo
A treatment that looks like the study treatment but contains no active ingredient. Some participants receive it instead of the study treatment, usually without knowing which they got.
Inclusion Criteria
The conditions a person must meet to be considered for the study, for example a confirmed diagnosis, an age range or a test result.
Exclusion Criteria
The conditions that rule a person out even if they meet the inclusion criteria, for example other illnesses, certain medicines or pregnancy.
