Parkinson's Disease
Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the impact that treatment with a cellular concentrate derived from an individual's own fat, known as the stromal vascular fraction (SVF), has on the quality of life of people with Parkinson's disease (PD). SVF contains components with regenerative properties, including stem cells that may be capable of ameliorating specific disease conditions. This study is designed to evaluate quality of life changes in individuals with PD for up to 12 months following SVF treatment.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change from Baseline in Overall Quality of Life Over the Course of a 12 Month Period as Measured by the Parkinson's Disease Quality of Life Questionnaire (PDQUALIF) | Baseline, 12 months | The change from baseline over the course of 12 months using participants' assessment of their overall quality of life. Mean scores will be used for baseline (day 0) and all interviews up to month 12 (months 1, 3, 6, and 12). Answer options are graded according to one of seven various five-point Likert response scales. |

| Change from Baseline in Independence at Month 12 as Measured by Participants Using the Parkinson's Disease Quality of Life Questionnaire (PDQUALIF) The Independence Subscale | Baseline, Month 12 | Participant assessment of the change in their feeling of independence from baseline to month 12 using the PDQUALIF independence subscale |
| Change from Baseline in Urinary Function at Month 12 as Measured by Participants Using the Parkinson's Disease Quality of Life Questionnaire (PDQUALIF) The Urinary Function Subscale | Baseline, Month 12 | Participant assessment of the change in their urinary function from baseline to month 12 using the PDQUALIF urinary function subscale |
| Change from Baseline in Global Health-Related Quality of Life at Month 12 as Measured by Participants Using the Parkinson's Disease Quality of Life Questionnaire (PDQUALIF) The Global HRQoL Subscale | Baseline, Month 12 | Participant assessment of the change in their overall health-related quality of life from baseline to month 12 using the PDQUALIF global HRQoL subscale |
| Change from Baseline in Physical Functioning at Month 12 as Measured by Participants Using the Parkinson's Disease Quality of Life Questionnaire (PDQUALIF) The Physical Functioning Subscale | Baseline, Month 12 | Participant assessment of the change in their physical functioning from baseline to month 12 using the PDQUALIF physical functioning subscale |
