A Long Term Follow-Up Study for Subjects Who Have Received Q-Cells

March 25, 2024 updated by: Benjamin Greenberg, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center

A Long Term Follow-Up Study for Subjects Who Have Received Human Glial Restricted Progenitor Cells (hGRPs; Q-Cells®) (LTFU Study)

This study is an observational study designed to obtain information on the long-term safety, tolerability, and continued activity of Q-Cells®. The study will follow the participants who previously received Q-Cells® for 10 years.

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the long term effects of Q-Cells® in people with transverse myelitis.

The main objectives the study is to evaluate the safety of patients who have received Q-Cells®.

The secondary goal of the study is to get data about the long-term activity of Q-Cells® over a period of 10 years.

Patients will complete exams, lab tests, imaging, and questionnaires to monitor their safety.

through study completion, an average of 10 years
Safety Endpoints: Clinical Laboratory assessments: hematology
Time Frame: through study completion, an average of 10 years
Descriptive statistics for raw values as well as change from baseline (entry into this protocol No. QLTFU-101) by original treatment group will be presented for each visit. The number and percentage of subjects with potentially clinically significant laboratory results will be tabulated by original treatment cohort and overall.
through study completion, an average of 10 years
Number of Adverse Events
Time Frame: through study completion, an average of 10 years

Safety will be assessed by the number of Adverse events.These will be recorded via physical examination findings and will be presented in data listings.

Clinically significant changes on physical exam in the areas of: general appearance, head, ears, eyes, nose, throat, neck, chest and lungs, cardiovascular, abdomen, neurological, thyroid, musculoskeletal, lymph nodes, extremities and skin, and operative site will be recorded as Adverse Events.
