NCT02231242

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the infusion of intrathecal autologous bone marrow total nucleated cells would improve the neurologic evolution of pediatric patients with quadriparetic cerebral palsy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of participants who show progress in GMFCS scale after autologous bonemarrow TNC intrathecal infusion.

    Patients, in an outpatient basis, will be stimulated with Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) for 3 consecutive days. Their bone marrow will be harvested under sedation and, after being processed in the laboratory, the buffy coat of 10 mL will be infused intrathecally. Patient will be monitored during acute phase to register any adverse effect (malaise, headache, fever, and nausea or vomit, etc).Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) scale is going to be monitored at baseline, one, three and six months to measured differences between the scales. GMFCS is based on patient's self-initiated movement with particular emphasis on sitting, walking, and wheeled mobility. Distinctions between levels are based on functional abilities, the need for assistive technology, including hand-held mobility devices (walkers, crutches, or canes) or wheeled mobility, and to a much lesser extent, quality of movement.

Study Arms (2)

Intrathecal Autologous Bone Marrow TNC

EXPERIMENTAL

Procedure/Surgery: Intrathecal Autologous Bone Marrow TNC. Other Names: Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation Patients will be stimulated with Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) (10mcgr/kg of body weight) for 3 consecutive days. Bone marrow will be harvested under sedation and, after being processed in the laboratory, the autologous TNC concentrate of 10 mL will be infused intrathecally.

Biological: Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation

Control group

NO INTERVENTION

Patients will be evaluated with the "Gross Motor Functional Classification System" initially, at one, three and six months, and then cross to the intervention arm.

Interventions

Patients will be stimulated with Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) 3 consecutive days. Bone marrow will be harvested under sedation and, after being processed in the laboratory, the buffy coat (TNC) of 10 mL will be infused intrathecally. Intrathecal Autologous Bone Marrow TNC
