General information about the trial
|
|||
Main objective of the trial |
• To determine whether a sufficient proportion of patients experience response of their paretic arm following treatment with CTX0E03 DP at a dose level of 20 million cells to justify a subsequent randomised study.
o Response will be defined as a minimum improvement of 2 points in test number 2 of the Action Research Arm Test (Grasp a 2.5 cm^3 block and move it from the starting position to the target end position) in the affected arm 3 months after injection of CTX0E03 DP. This would represent an improvement from a pre-treatment state in which the patient was unable to grasp and reposition the block as required to a post-treatment state in which the patient could accomplish the task as specified within 60 seconds and would represent recovery of useful function in a previously paretic arm.

Protection of trial subjects |
The study protocol, the patient information sheet (PIS) and consent form and all amendments were submitted to all relevant Competent Authorities (CA) and Research Ethics Committees (REC) in accordance with local regulations. Approval was obtained from the REC and regulatory agency prior to study initiation.
This study was conducted in accordance with Good Clinical Practice (GCP) as defined by the International Council for Harmonization (ICH), the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki and its amendments, and all applicable national and international laws.
Prior to enrolment and any screening activities, the study procedures and any known or likely risks were explained to the patients in lay language by the Investigator or designee. Patients were provided with a written PIS and informed consent form (ICF) and were given ample opportunity to enquire about the study. Once the Investigator was assured that the patient understood the commitments of participating in the study, the patient was asked to sign and personally date the ICF in the presence of the Investigator or Sub-investigator. If the patient was not physically able to sign the form, a witness may have signed the consent form on their behalf. Each patient’s consent form was also signed and dated by the Investigator or Subinvestigator. No protocol-specific tests or procedures, that were not part of routine care, were performed prior to informed consent being obtained. All active patients signed an updated ICF if revisions that affected the patients’ safety or decision to participate were made to the ICF during the course of the study.
This study was guided by a Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) which included a minimum of one clinician expert in the management of stroke, one neurosurgeon and one medical statistician. The DSMB reviewed all safety data at predetermined intervals during the course of the study.

Recruitment details |
In total, 41 patients were enrolled from 8 different clinical sites in the UK. Out of the 41 patients enrolled, 23 patients were treated. The first patient was enrolled on 31 July 2014. The last patient visit took place on 16 August 2017. | ||||||||||||||

modified Rankin Score - Minimum improvement of 1 Grade | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
End point description |
The modified Rankin Score (mRS) assessment is a hierarchical score of disability graded from 0-6 where 0 represents no symptoms
and 6 represents death. Lower numbers correspond to better disability outcomes. A score of ≤2 is generally accepted to represent functional independence and a score of ≤3 signifies independence in walking. The Focused Assessment tool is a structured interview that improves inter-observer agreement on assigning mRS grades.
A responder is defined as a minimum improvement of 1 grade from baseline
Results are also displayed per baseline NIHSS Upper Limb score.

Adverse event reporting additional description |
This report provides safety data for all 23 treated patients. Safety data are available through the completion of the Day 365 study completion visit for 20/23 (86.96%) patients. One patient died (sepsis of unknown origin), and so was withdrawn from the study prematurely and 2 patients were lost-to follow-up.
