November 14, 2023 updated by: Rohto Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.

An Exploratory Study to Investigate the Safety and Efficacy of UC-MSCs in Pediatric Patients With Cerebral Palsy

UDI-001 is administered to pediatric patients with cerebral palsy attributed to periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) multiple times to investigate its safety and efficacy.

Study Overview

Status

Active, not recruiting

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

This is the first study of UDI-001 to be administered to children. Pediatric patients with cerebral palsy attributed to PVL are enrolled to the study and umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stromal cells (UC-MSCs) are administered to those patients multiple times intravenously. Safety and efficacy of UC-MSCs are evaluated for 52 weeks after the first administration.
