PRP and PBD-VSEL Stem Cell Therapy for Parkinson's Disease

Parkinson's disease the second most common neurological disease worldwide is a progressive disorder that affects movement and can cause tremors, stiffness, and difficulty with coordination and balance caused by dopamine deficiency and progressive degeneration of dopaminergic neurons (DAn). Autologous Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) and Stem cell therapy is new and practical treatment option that aims to decrease neuroinflammation, modulate immune system and stimulate, replace or repair lost or damaged dopamine-producing cells in the brain lost in Parkinson's disease. Methods: Total 30 patients aged 30 - 50 years will enrolled in the study. After the initial cognitive and laboratory testing, the patients will be infused PRP in the autologous blood, once a month for 2 months. After three monthly sessions of PRP treatments, peripheral blood derived very small embryonic like (PBD-VSEL) stem cells therapy will be done on the 90th day. All the patients will be sent to neuro physicians for evaluation and improvement after 3 months, 6 months and 12 months. The primary outcomes of the study will be to see the improvement in The Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and self-report Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire-39 (PDQ-39). All the data will be entered and analyzed by SPSS 25.0. Before and after difference outcome variables will compared before and after difference will be observed by paired sample t test. P-value \<0.05 will be considered as significant.
