A Study to Investigate the Safety and Efficacy of UC-MSCs in Pediatric Patients With Cerebral Palsy
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
UDI-001 is administered to pediatric patients with cerebral palsy attributed to periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) multiple times to investigate its safety and efficacy.
Condition or Disease | Intervention/Treatment | Phase |

Phase 1/Phase 2 |
Detailed Description
This is the first study of UDI-001 to be administered to children. Pediatric patients with cerebral palsy attributed to PVL are enrolled to the study and umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stromal cells (UC-MSCs) are administered to those patients multiple times intravenously. Safety and efficacy of UC-MSCs are evaluated for 52 weeks after the first administration.
