Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This clinical study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of NCR100 injection in subjects with knee osteoarthritis (KOA). It is a dose-escalating, open label study in adult KOA subjects.

Detailed Description
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a kind of degenerative joint disease and there are over 300 million cases worldwide. The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of human pluripotent stem cell derived mesenchymal stromal cells (NCR100) injection in the treatment of subjects with knee osteoarthritis.
