About this trial

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of intrathecal administration of CE-1 at a weight-based dose (cells/kg BW), capped at a maximum total dose of 1×10⁸ cells in 10 mL, with administered volume calculated using M = 0.167 mL/kg BW.

Study details include:

The overall study duration will be up to three years. The primary endpoint will be assessed at 6 months following investigational product administration. An additional secondary endpoint will be assessed at 12 months in the form of a phone call.

Study visits therefore consist of one interventional visit, an evaluation visit within two weeks post-injection, a primary endpoint follow-up visit at 6 months, and a secondary endpoint follow-up phone call at 12-months.

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Once the voluntary nature of the study is explained in detail, the participant must be willing to provide written informed consent and complete HIPAA documentation before conducting any study-related procedure. A signed written informed consent and ability to comply with the study protocol according to International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) and local regulations is required.

Male or female aged 18 years and older at the time of enrollment

Females of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test prior to receiving the study drug and will agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal/barrier method or abstinence) from the time of screening to a period of 1 year following completion of the drug treatment cycle. Females of childbearing potential are defined as premenopausal and not surgically sterilized, or post-menopausal for fewer than two years. If the urine pregnancy test is positive, the study drug will not be administered, and the result will be confirmed by a serum β-hCG test. β-hCG tests will be performed at a central clinical laboratory, whereas urine pregnancy tests will be performed by qualified personnel using a kit.

Females becoming pregnant during the study will continue to be monitored for the duration of the study or completion of the pregnancy, whichever is longer. Monitoring will include perinatal and neonatal outcomes. Any serious adverse events (SAE) associated with pregnancy will be recorded.
