Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of Intramuscular Infusion of Autologous Bone Marrow Stem Cells in Patients With Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis by a prospective, single-center, randomized, parallel, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase I clinical trial.

Conditions

  • ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis)

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

MNC (Mononuclear cells)

The cells are infused into the TA muscle of the lower limb randomized as Group A (experimental) intramuscularly. The infusion is made with a needle, 26 gauge, at 4 points of the TA muscle a specific depth given by the neurophysiological study. The total volume infused will be 2 ml, 0.5 ml at each point. For infusion is as painless as possible for the patient to comply exactly with stereotactic indications of neurophysiology, the infusion was made at a uniform controlled rate and for this, the syringe is placed on a Yesargil arm, equipped with a microinjector and controlled infusion device.

OTHER

Saline

The placebo, 2ml of saline, will be infused like in the experimental arm.
