Summary

The main purpose of this study is to estimate change in motor function 12 months after treatment with a single dose of allogeneic umbilical cord blood (AlloCB) or repeated doses of umbilical cord tissue-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (hCT-MSC) in children with cerebral palsy. In addition, this study will contribute much needed data to the clinical trials community on the natural history of the motor function in CP over short-term (less than 1 year) time periods relevant to the conduct of clinical trials and assess the safety of AlloCB and hCT-MSC infusion in children with cerebral palsy.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Age ≥24 months and ≤60 months adjusted age at the time of enrollment.
  • Diagnosis: Unilateral or bilateral hypertonic cerebral palsy secondary to in utero or perinatal stroke/hemorrhage, hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (including, but not limited to, birth asphyxia), and/or periventricular leukomalacia.
  • Performance status: Gross Motor Function Classification Score levels I - IV
  • Review of brain imaging (obtained as standard of care prior to study entry) does not suggest a genetic condition or brain malformation.
  • Legal authorized representative consent.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Available qualified autologous cord blood unit.
  • Hypotonic or ataxic cerebral palsy without spasticity.
  • Autism and autistic spectrum disorders.
  • Hypsarrhythmia.
  • Legally blind
  • Intractable seizures causing epileptic encephalopathy.
  • Evidence of a progressive neurologic disease.
  • Has an active, uncontrolled systemic infection or documentation of HIV+ status.
  • Known genetic disease or phenotypic evidence of a genetic disease on physical exam.
  • Concurrent genetic or acquired disease or comorbidity(ies) that could require a future allogeneic stem cell transplant.
  • Requires ventilatory support, including home ventilator, CPAP, BiPAP, or supplemental oxygen.
  • Impaired renal or liver function as determined by serum creatinine >1.5mg/dL and/or total bilirubin >1.3mg/dL except in patients with known Gilbert's disease.
  • Possible immunosuppression, defined as WBC <3,000 cells/mL or absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) <1500 with abnormal T-cell subsets.
  • Patient's medical condition does not permit safe travel.
  • Previously received any form of cellular therapy.
