Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To assess the safety of XCEL-UMC-BETA infusion in the treatment of thoracic level complete traumatic chronic spinal cord injury, from 12 month to 5 years evolution.;Secondary Objective: - To assess efficacy of XCEL-UMC-BETA infusion in the treatment of thoracic level complete traumatic chronic spinal cord injury, from 12 month to 5 years evolution, by: a) ASIA assessment b) Electrophysiology tests (motor and somatosensory evoked potentials. H and F waves) c) Electrical pain threshold perception d) Urodynamic testing e) Anorectal manometry test - Clinical assessment of XCEL-UMC-BETA infusion in the treatment of thoracic level complete traumatic chronic spinal cord injury, from 12 month to 5 years evolution, by: a) Numerical scale for neuropathic pain assessment b) Modified Ashworth scale for spasticity c) SCIM III scale for functionality d) Quality of life questionnaire (EUROQOL-5D) e) Qualiveen questionnaire - Assessment of changes by magnetic resonance imaging;Primary end point(s): - Safety assessment through adverse events, physical exam, vital signs and laboratory data.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: month 12

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): - Efficacy will be assessed though changes in respect to basal parameters for each period: a) ASIA punctuation at 1, 3 and 6 months (1, 3, 6, 7, 9 and 12 months of the study) b) Electrophysiology tests (motor and somatosensory evoked potentials. H and F waves) at 1, 3 and 6 months (1, 3, 6, 7, 9 and 12 months of the study) c) Electrical pain threshold perception at 1, 3 and 6 months (1, 3, 6, 7, 9 and 12 months of the study) d) Urodynamic testing at 6 months (6 and 12 months of the trial) e) Anorectal manometry test at 6 months (6 and 12 months of the trial) - Assessment of clinical changes at 1, 3 and 6 months of each period (1, 3, 6, 7, 9 and 12 months of the study), in respect to basal parameters, for: a) Numerical scale for neuropathic pain assessment b) Modified Ashworth scale for spasticity c) SCIM III scale for functionality d) Quality of life questionnaire (EUROQOL-5D) e) Qualiveen questionnaire (at month 6 of each period) (6 and 12 months of the trial) - Changes by magnetic resonance imaging on the size and lesion characteristics at month 6 in respect to basal parameters, for each period (6 and 12 months of the trial);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: month 12
