Brief summary

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a single intravenous administration of JTR-161 (allogeneic stem cell product derived from the dental pulp of healthy adult humans) to patients with acute ischemic stroke. This study is comprised of 3 cohorts and conducted in the order of Cohort 1, Cohort 2 and Cohort 3. Cohort 1 Arm-1: JTR-161, 1 × 10\^8 cells/subject, 6 subjects Arm-2: Placebo, 2 subjects The Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) and the Sponsor will decide whether Cohort 2 can be initiated or not. Cohort 2 Arm-1: JTR-161, 3 × 10\^8 cells/subject, 6 subjects Arm-2: Placebo, 2 subjects DSMB and the Sponsor will decide whether Cohort 3 can be initiated or not and the dose of JTR-161 in Cohort 3. Cohort 3 Arm-1: JTR-161, 1 × 10\^8 cells/subject or 3 × 10\^8 cells/subject, 30 subjects Arm-2: Placebo, 30 subjects

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The percentage of patients who achieved Excellent outcome (modified Rankin Scale [mRS] ≤1 and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale [NIHSS] ≤1 and Barthel Index [BI] ≥95) on Day 91 in Cohort 3.91 days

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of patients who achieved BI ≥ 95366 days
Percentage of patients who achieved NIHSS ≤ 1, who achieved improvement of ≥ 75%, and who achieved improvement of ≥ 10 points91 days
Changes in EQ-5D-5L scores366 daysThe EuroQOL 5 dimension 5-level (EQ-5D-5L) consists of 2 parts: the EQ-5D descriptive system and the EQ visual analogue scale (EQ VAS). The descriptive system comprises five dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels: 1=no problems, 2=slight problems, 3=moderate problems, 4=severe problems and 5=extreme problems. The EQ VAS records the patient's self-rated health on a vertical visual analogue scale, where the endpoints are labelled 'The best health you can imagine' and 'The worst health you can imagine'.
Percentage of patients who achieved excellent outcome (mRS ≤ 1, NIHSS ≤ 1, and BI ≥ 95)91 days
Percentage of patients who showed overall improvement (mRS ≤ 2, NIHSS improvement of ≥ 75%, and BI ≥ 95)91 days
Percentage of patients who achieved mRS ≤ 1 or mRS ≤ 2366 days
Changes in Laboratory tests (hematology, blood chemistry, blood coagulation test, urinalysis)366 daysNumber of participants with clinical laboratory abnormalities for each parameter * hematology Red blood cell count, Hemoglobin, Hematocrit, Platelet count, Leukocyte count, Leukocyte formula (neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, basophils) * blood chemistry Total protein, Albumin, Total bilirubin, Aspartate aminotransferase , Alanine aminotransferase, Alkaline phosphatase , Lactate dehydrogenase , γ-Glutamyltransferase, Blood urea nitrogen , Creatinine, Uric acid, Sodium, Potassium, Calcium, Chloride, Creatine kinase , C-reactive protein * blood coagulation Prothrombin time (International normalized ratio) , Activated partial thromboplastin time * urinalysis Urine Protein, Urine Glucose
Changes in Vital signs (blood pressure [systolic/diastolic], pulse rate, body temperature)366 daysNumber of participants of the vital signs abnormalities for each parameter: blood pressure (mmHg), pulse rate (bpm) and body temperature (℃).
Changes in Oxygen saturation (SpO2)366 days
Changes in findings of imaging examination by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) or Computed Tomography (CT).31 days
Incidence of Adverse events (signs and symptoms)366 days
