A Study to Evaluate the Safety of a Delivery Device for Administering LCTOPC1 in Participants With Spinal Cord Injury
The DOSED clinical study evaluates the safety and utility of a novel delivery device to deliver LCTOPC1, a cell therapy, to the spinal cord of patients with a spinal cord injury (SCI). LCTOPC1 is designed to replace or support cells that are absent or dysfunctional due to traumatic injury, with …
Spinal Cord Stimulation for Gait Dysfunction in Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second commonest neurodegenerative disorder, affecting over 145,000 people in the UK. Initially, PD patients experience slowness of movements, limb stiffness, and tremor. With progressive loss of neurons over time, many patients start to experience balance and walking problems, and falls, which are resistant to currently …
Transcutaneous Spinal Cord Stimulation for Chronic Low Back Pain
As a leading cause of disability worldwide, chronic low back pain (cLBP) represents a significant medical and socioeconomic problem with estimated health care spending of $87 billion/annually. The efficacy of dorsal column electrical stimulation to inhibit pain was first described over 50 years ago. Since then, several large clinical trials …
The Teaspoon Study - Telefitting Spinal Cord Stimulation for Pain
Spinal cord stimulation modulates the nervous system to effectively block pain signals originating from the back and legs. Spinal cord stimulation has been shown to improve chronic pain, improve quality of life, and reduce disability. Unfortunately, spinal cord stimulation has a high trial failure rate and a high long-term failure …
Transcutaneous Tibial Nerve Stimulation in Acute Spinal Cord Injury
Most patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) develop neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD), one of the most devastating sequelae of SCI which ultimately can lead to renal failure. We urgently need an intervention that prevents NLUTD before irreversible damage occurs. Neuromodulation procedures are a promising avenue so that we …
Canadian-American Spinal Cord Perfusion Pressure and Biomarker Study
This multicenter study will enroll 100 patients with acute traumatic cervical and thoracic SCI who have a lumbar intrathecal catheter inserted within 24 hours of their injury. The lumbar intrathecal catheter will be inserted pre-operatively for the measurement of ITP and the collection of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples. SCPP will …
Bacteriophage Therapy in Spinal Cord Injury Patients With Bacteriuria
This is a Phase 1b study to assess the safety, tolerability, PK, and PD of investigational phage therapy (IP) in adults with SCI and bladder colonization (ASB). It is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in adults with SCI with neurogenic bladders and bacteriuria who use indwelling catheters, or who …
Vibrant Capsule for Spinal Cord Injury Neurogenic Bowel Dysfunction
The goal of this study is to test the safety and effectiveness of Vibrant capsules in spinal cord injury patients with neurogenic bowel.
Targeting Cervical Epidural Spinal Cord Stimulation for Functional Recovery
The proposed study seeks to understand how the cervical spinal cord should be stimulated after injury through short-term physiology experiments that will inform a preclinical efficacy trial. The purpose of this study is to determine which cervical levels epidural electrical stimulation (EES) should target to recruit arm and hand muscles …
Wrist Extensor MEP Up-conditioning for Individuals With Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury
The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between common clinical assessments and measurements of the function of brain-spinal cord-muscle connections, and to examine the effects of training a brain-spinal cord-muscle response in individuals with incomplete spinal cord injury. A transcranial magnetic stimulator (TMS) is used for examining …
