Description

Summary

Study BRT-DA01-301 is a Phase 3 multicenter, randomized, sham surgery-controlled, double-blind study to assess efficacy and safety of bemdaneprocel in approximately 102 adults with Parkinson's Disease (PD).

Official Title

exPDite-2: A Phase 3 Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Midbrain Dopaminergic Neuronal Cell Therapy (Bemdaneprocel) for Participants With Parkinson's Disease

Details

The BRT-DA01-301 study is a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, sham surgery-controlled, double-blind study involving approximately 102 participants with Parkinson's Disease (PD). Participants will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to either receive bemdaneprocel or undergo sham surgery. The study includes an immunosuppression regimen and placebo equivalents to maintain blinding. The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of bemdaneprocel on motor symptoms in participants with PD. The secondary objective is to evaluate the effects of bemdaneprocel on Motor function, Quality of life, Non-motor symptoms of PD, Disease severity, and Use of PD medications or therapies compared with participants who undergo sham surgery. Participants will be followed for at least 18 months in the double-blind period and up to five years if they receive bemdaneprocel.
