A Randomized Placebo-controlled Multicenter Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of JTR-161, Allogeneic Human Dental Pulp Stem Cell, in Patients With Acute Ischemic stRoke (J-REPAIR)

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Acute Ischemic Stroke
Interventions
Biological: JTR-161
Biological: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT04608838
Lead Sponsor
Teijin Pharma Limited
Brief Summary

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a single intravenous administration of JTR-161 (allogeneic stem cell product derived from the dental pulp of healthy adult humans) to patients with acute ischemic stroke.

This study is comprised of 3 cohorts and conducted in the order of Cohort 1, Cohort 2 and Cohort 3.

Cohort 1 Arm-1: JTR-161, 1 × 10\^8 cells/subject, 6 subjects Arm-2: Placebo, 2 subjects

The Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) and the Sponsor will decide whether Cohort 2 can be initiated or not.

Cohort 2 Arm-1: JTR-161, 3 × 10\^8 cells/subject, 6 subjects Arm-2: Placebo, 2 subjects

DSMB and the Sponsor will decide whether Cohort 3 can be initiated or not and the dose of JTR-161 in Cohort 3.

Cohort 3 Arm-1: JTR-161, 1 × 10\^8 cells/subject or 3 × 10\^8 cells/subject, 30 subjects Arm-2: Placebo, 30 subjects

Number of participants with clinical laboratory abnormalities for each parameter

* hematology Red blood cell count, Hemoglobin, Hematocrit, Platelet count, Leukocyte count, Leukocyte formula (neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, basophils)

* blood chemistry Total protein, Albumin, Total bilirubin, Aspartate aminotransferase , Alanine aminotransferase, Alkaline phosphatase , Lactate dehydrogenase , γ-Glutamyltransferase, Blood urea nitrogen , Creatinine, Uric acid, Sodium, Potassium, Calcium, Chloride, Creatine kinase , C-reactive protein

Changes in findings of imaging examination by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) or Computed Tomography (CT).31 days
Changes in Vital signs (blood pressure [systolic/diastolic], pulse rate, body temperature)366 days

Number of participants of the vital signs abnormalities for each parameter: blood pressure (mmHg), pulse rate (bpm) and body temperature (℃).

Changes in EQ-5D-5L scores366 days

The EuroQOL 5 dimension 5-level (EQ-5D-5L) consists of 2 parts: the EQ-5D descriptive system and the EQ visual analogue scale (EQ VAS).

The descriptive system comprises five dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels: 1="no problems", 2="slight problems", 3="moderate problems", 4="severe problems" and 5="extreme problems".

The EQ VAS records the patient's self-rated health on a vertical visual analogue scale, where the endpoints are labelled 'The best health you can imagine' and 'The worst health you can imagine'.

Changes in Oxygen saturation (SpO2)366 days
