Clinical Trial: Long-Term Follow-Up Study of Human Stem Cells Transplanted in Subjects With Connatal Pelizaeus-Merzbacher Disease (PMD)

Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: Completed
Study Type: Observational

Official Title: Long-Term Follow-Up Safety and Preliminary Efficacy Study of Human Central Nervous System Stem Cell (HuCNS-SC®) Transplantation in Subjects With Connatal Pelizaeus-Merzbache

Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine the long term safety and preliminary effect of HuCNS-SC cells transplanted in subjects with Connatal Pelizaeus-Merzbacher Disease (PMD).

Detailed Summary:

Only subjects who underwent HuCNS-SC transplantation under Protocol CL-N01-PMD will be enrolled in this long term follow-up study.

Subjects will return to the site six months and one year after completion of the Phase I study and then annually for a total study duration of four years. Phone calls will also be made by the Investigator to the subject's parent/legal guardian bi-annually to conduct a phone visit through the four-year duration of the study.
