Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Primary Outcome measures: 1 At 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after discharge, patients will have follow-up examinations to assess their clinical status and to review their current medication. 2 Clinical improvement will be defined as a decrease in the specific symptom and lesions. 3 UPDRS will be repeated in all patients. Apart from the routine Proforma for Parkinsonism, the UPDRS will be done at the baseline and at the 12th month. 4 Safety and tolerability, assessed by adverse events 5 Quality of life   3,6,9,12 months  
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Secondary Outcome will be the change in the baseline in UPDRS.   3,6,9,12 months

Brief Summary   This study has been designed as an open label, non-randomized, uncontrolled, prospective, single center, pilot study. The subject will receive ex-vivo expanded bone marrow derived allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells at the dose of 4million cells/Kg body weight. First dose will be given through precoronal burr hole surgery after baseline studies are over. Source of cells: The mesenchymal stem cells would be derived from the Bone marrow of an adult healthy donor after appropriate screening and informed consent. Method of expansion: The sample would be centrifuged and the cell suspension separated using density gradient technique to isolate the mononuclear stem cells ( MNCs) .From the MNC fraction, mesenchymal stem cells will be further isolated using plastic adhesion technique and expanded in vitro to obtain the required number of cells for intervention. The cells would be further quality tested as per ISCT (International Society for Cellular Therapy) guidelines before release for clinical intervention.
