Official title
A Pilot Study to Evaluate the Safety and Feasibility of Implanting Autologous Peripheral Nerve Grafts Into the Substantia Nigra of Subjects With Parkinson's Disease Undergoing Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery and Treatment
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
By doing this study, the investigators hope to learn provide safety data that can be used to generate a larger phase III clinical trial. If successful, it would promote the development of a new treatment for PD in which patients are able to provide their own tissue as a source of a supportive environment for the injured and dying cells and thereby possibly stopping the progression of the illness or even improve the symptoms of PD. The purpose of this research is to gather information on the safety and feasibility of nerve graft implantation is. The results of this study will be shared with the University of Kentucky, Center for Clinical and Translational Science (group providing financial support for the study) and other federal agencies, if required. The overall goal of this research is to develop a novel, regenerative treatment strategy for idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD) that is safe, cost effective and widely available to patients.
