Full study name & original research details
Official study title
A Phase I Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability and Preliminary Efficacy of NouvNeu001 Injection in the Treatment of Early-onset Parkinson's Disease
Short title used by the registry
The Safety, Tolerability and Preliminary Efficacy of NouvNeu001 for Early-onset Parkinson's Disease
Original description
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety of NouvNeu001 injection in Early-onset Parkinson's Disease (EOPD) patients. It will also learn about the effects of NouvNeu001 treatment. The main questions it aims to answer are:
What medical problems do participants have when transplanting NouvNeu001 into bilateral putamen using stereotactic neurosurgery? Does injection of NouvNeu001 improve the motor function and non-motor function in participants?
Participants will:
Be injectioned the NouvNeu001 into bilateral putamen using stereotactic neurosurgery.
Take immunosuppressants to prevent potential immune rejection for 24 to 36 weeks.
Conditions reported: Early-onset Parkinson's Disease
