Safety and efficacy of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell therapy in elderly Parkinson's disease patients: an intermediate-size expanded access program
Objective
This intermediate-size expanded access program aimed to evaluate safety and clinical efficacy of multiple intravenous infusions of autologous, Hope Biosciences adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell (HB-adMSC) therapy in elderly patients with Parkinson's disease (PD).
Methods
Ten eligible participants (aged 76–95 years) received six intravenous infusions each with 200MM autologous HB-adMSCs over 18 weeks, with the end of study (EOS) at week 26. Safety was assessed through adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs). Efficacy was measured through improvements in both motor and non-motor symptoms, utilizing scales including Movement Disorder Society Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) parts I-IV, Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire-39 (PDQ-39), Parkinson's disease Fatigue Scale (PFS-16), Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), and Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Analysis employed paired t-tests and Minimal Clinically Important Difference (MCID) thresholds for the patient-reported outcomes.
Results
Most AEs (37 out of 46) were mild in severity, with 5 SAEs reported, none attributed to the drug. No deaths occurred. Despite lack of statistical significance across the efficacy endpoints, modest yet clinically meaningful improvements with effect size > 0.3 were observed in several secondary efficacy endpoints (MDS-UPDRS part I & III, PDQ-39, and PHQ-9) at the EOS, nearing or surpassing the established MCID values.
Conclusions
The administration of autologous 200MM HB-adMSCs was found to be safe and well-tolerated in the elderly PD population. Although not achieving statistical significance, modest clinical improvements were noted across multiple secondary endpoints. These findings underscore the safety profile of the treatment in elderly patients and highlight the importance of evaluating clinical relevance alongside statistical measures for meaningful patient outcomes. Further investigation with a larger, randomized, placebo-controlled design is warranted to validate these observations.
