NCT06821529 | NOT YET RECRUITING | Parkinson Disease

Stereotactic Intracerebral Injection of IPSC-DAPs in Patients with Parkinson's Disease
Sponsor:

iCamuno Biotherapeutics Ltd.

Brief Summary:

Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by high morbidity due to the limited regenerative capacity of dopaminergic neurons in the brain. Current drug treatments primarily manage symptoms but do not halt or reverse neuronal loss. Cellular replacement therapy has emerged as a potential strategy to restore dopaminergic function and address the underlying neuronal deficits. This study aims to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of transplanting dopaminergic neurons into the brain to improve motor function and quality of life in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease.

Condition or disease

Parkinson Disease

Intervention/treatment

ICA07 therapy

Phase

PHASE1

Detailed Description:

Patients with Parkinson's disease will be treated with autologous induced pluripotent stem cell-derived dopamine progenitor cells (iPSC-DAPs). These cells will be transplanted directly into the striatum to restore dopamine-producing capacity. Patients will be evaluated at 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after transplantation for safety, feasibility, and efficacy.
