E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
This study will investigate whether bone marrow-derived allogeneic MSCs, as administered by the nasal route, can induce the formation of neuronal tissue and restore brain function in neonates who suffered from perinatal arterial ischemic stroke (PAIS) compared to a matched group of historic untreated controls. The ultimate goals of the present study is therefore to develop a therapy using adult human allogenic MSCs to reduce or even to prevent the lifelong consequences of PAIS-related brain damage in this group of term newborns.

Deze studie zal onderzoeken of volwassen allogene MSC uit beenmerg, toegediende via de nasale route, de formatie van neuronaal weefsel kan induceren en zal zorgen voor het herstellen van hersenfunctie van neonaten die een perinataal arterieel ischemisch herseninfarct hebben doorgemaakt, vergeleken met gematchte historische niet-MSC behandelde PAIS patienten. Het einddoel van deze studie is dan ook om een therapie te ontwikkelen met volwassen allogene MSCs om de levenslange negatieve gevolgen van PAIS-gerelateerde hersenschade substantieel te verminderen. |

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Our primary objective is to determine if MSC treatment reduces brain damage, which will be measured on one hand by the change in lesion size and brain growth between the time of onset of the insult and 3 months of age and on the other hand by change of reorganisation of the sensorimotor cortex after neonatal stroke. Change in lesion size and brain growth will be estimated using advanced volumetric magnetic resonance (MRI) techniques, performed within 3 days after clinical presentation and at 3 months of age. We will use post-processing fibre-tracking programs on diffusion tension imaging (DTI) to detect whether MSC treatment stimulates reorganization of the sensorimotor cortex |
Onze primaire uitkomstmaat is om te bepalen of MSC-therapie hersenschade redueert, wat aan de ene kant gemeten zal worden door de verandering in infarctgroote en hersengroei te meten tussen het moment van optreden van het infarct en de leeftijd van 3 maanden, en aan de andere kant door verandering in reoganisatie van de sensorimotore cortex na neonatale stroke. Volumeveranderingen en hersengroei zullen worden geschat met behulp van geavanceerde volumetrische MRI technieken, welke worden uitgevoerd binnen 3 dagen na klinische presentatie en op de leeftijd van 3 maanden. Post-processing fibre-tracking programma's op diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) zullen worden gebruikt om te zien of MSC-therapie reorganisatie van de sensorimotore cortex stimuleert. |
