Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of ESC-derived Dopamine Progenitor Cell Therapy in PD Patients

General Information

Summary Indication: Patients who were diagnosed with Parkinson's disease ≥ 5 years ago. Purpose: To find the maximum tolerable dose and evaluate the safety and exploratory efficacy of allogenic embryonic stem cell-derived A9 dopamine progenitor cell (A9-DPC) therapy in patients who were diagnosed with Parkinson's disease ≥ 5 years ago, as a treatment for delaying or stopping the progression of Parkinson's disease or inducing recovery of damaged brain. Number of Subjects: Up to 12 subjects. [Low dose] 3.15X10^6 cells/body: 6 subjects. [High dose] 6.30X10^6 cells/body: 6 subjects. Study Design: Single center, open, single dosing, dose-escalation, phase 1/2a study Endpoints: [Primary Safety Endpoints] Occurrence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) after administration of the IP Failure or rejection of transplantation and occurrence of bleeding and infection at Week 12 (3months), Week 24 (6months), Week 48 (12months) and Week 96 (24months) after administration of the IP Occurrence of adverse event of special interest (AESI)* after administration of the IP AESI: a) death, b) generation of a neoplasm or malignant tumor in tissues or organs, c) onset of an immune reaction including worsening of a previous autoimmune disease or new occurrence, and d) other delayed adverse events related to this embryonic stem cell treatment.
