About this trial

The purpose of this study is to measure outcomes using intranasal and intravenous autologous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) for Parkinson Disease (PD) and Parkinson's Plus (PPS) patients.

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Participants aged 40-75 years old with a diagnosis of PD or PPS (DLB, PSP, MSA, CBD with parkinsonism) based upon clinical criteria and standardized testing

Participants time of documented PD or PPS is </= 6 years

Participants with an anticipated survival of at least 3 years in the investigator's opinion

Participants who are willing and able to give informed consent

Disqualifiers

Other non-PD/PPS Parkinsonism (e.g., drug-induced, vascular parkinsonism)

No strong familial history of PD/PPS not attributable to environmental exposure or any known genetic predisposition to PD/PPS

Unable to receive/tolerate neuroimaging (e.g., MRI-incompatible cardiac pacemaker)

Unable to maintain/tolerate supine position with cervical neck extension
