Abstract
This report documents the first-in-man investigational trial and long-term follow-up of HuCNS-SC transplantation in chronic SCI. The small study size and open-label design reflect the pilot nature of this investigation, and the focus on determining feasibility, safety and preliminary efficacy. Based on the short- and long-term safety profile established in this study for individuals with thoracic SCI, a larger-scale, randomized, study in people with cervical SCI was approved in the US. These trials have established that the human spinal cord is a promising target for neural stem cell transplantation.
