Stereotactic Intracerebral Injection of Allogenic IPSC-DAPs in Patients With Parkinson's Disease

Stereotactic Intracerebral Injection of Allogenic Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-derived Dopamine Progenitor Cells in Patients With Parkinson's Disease

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 11 Feb 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by high morbidity due to the limited regenerative capacity of dopaminergic neurons in the brain. Current drug treatments primarily manage symptoms but do not halt or reverse neuronal loss. Cellular replacement therapy has emerged as a potential strategy to restore dopaminergic function and address the underlying neuronal deficits. This study aims to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of transplanting dopaminergic neurons into the brain to improve motor function and quality of life in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease.
