Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of two types of stem cells,(either banked cord blood or bone marrow), in children between the ages of 2 to 10 years with CP. 15 children with banked cord blood at CBR and 15 children without banked cord blood will be enrolled into the study. The study involves one baseline/treatment visit and 3 follow-up visits at 6 months, 12 months, and 2 years. Five children in each group will be randomized to a placebo control group at the baseline/treatment visit. Parents will not be told if their child received stem cells or a placebo until the 12 month follow-up visit. At that time parents may elect to have their child receive the stem cell treatment; either bone marrow harvest or umbilical cord blood if banked with CBR. All study visits will be conducted at the UTHealth Medical School and Children's Memorial Hermann Hospital in Houston, Texas. As of 1/21/2014 we have met our enrollment limit for children without banked cord blood undergoing bone marrow harvest for stem cells.

Interventions

  • BIOLOGICAL umbilical cord blood (hUCB) cells
  • DRUG Saline Infusion (Placebo)
  • BIOLOGICAL bone marrow derived mononuclear cells (BMMNCs)
