    Details

    Double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, multicenter clinical trial that will include 18 patients affected with chronic traumatic incomplete cervical spinal cord injury who will be randomized 2:1, stratified by center, to one of the 2 treatment arms of the study: WJ-MSC / WJ-MSC (at a dose of 1E6 ± 30% live cells / Kg of weight) or Placebo / placebo. Medication will be administered intrathecally at day 1 and at 3 months. The main objective of the trial is to assess safety at 12-month follow-up. Secondary objectives include the evaluation of efficacy through clinical response, electrophysiological changes, questionnaires of functionality and quality of life, as well as the presence of anti-HLA antibodies and donor cellularity in the cerebrospinal fluid.
