Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is randomized placebo-controlled trial to recognize new cell regeneration in the brain using FLT-PET.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

FLT(3'-Deoxy-3'-\[F-18\]Fluorothymidine) has been developed as a cell-proliferation tracer. In animal study, FLT-PET was used as a tool that enables imaging and measuring of proliferation in the brain, thus it detects activity of endogenous neural stem cells noninvasively. This study aims to assess cell proliferation activity changes in the brain after Umbilical Cord Blood (UCB)Therapy for Cerebral Palsy patients using FLT-PET.

Umbilical Cord Blood & Rehabilitation

Allogeneic umbilical cord blood infusion and active rehabilitation

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Umbilical Cord Blood Infusion

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

The subjects will be undertaken allogeneic umbilical cord blood infusion intravenously or intraarterially under non-myeloablative immunosuppression.

Active Rehabilitation

Intervention Type OTHER

All subjects should participate in active rehabilitation. They will receive two physical and occupational therapy sessions per day. Post discharge, each participant continued to receive rehabilitation therapy at least 3 days per week for additional 2.5 months.

Placebo Umbilical Cord Blood & Rehabilitation

Placebo Umbilical Cord Blood infusion and active rehabilitation

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Active Rehabilitation

Intervention Type OTHER

All subjects should participate in active rehabilitation. They will receive two physical and occupational therapy sessions per day. Post discharge, each participant continued to receive rehabilitation therapy at least 3 days per week for additional 2.5 months.

Placebo Umbilical Cord Blood

Intervention Type OTHER

Placebo Umbilical Cord Blood that resembles cord blood in appearance was designed : 1.5 to 3 ml of the subject's own blood was collected and mixed with 15 to 20 ml of albumin
