Brain cell implants tested for devastating genetic disease

NCT ID NCT07451613

Summary

This is the first study testing whether implanting human neural stem cells into the brain is safe for people with Huntington's disease. Researchers will enroll 21 adults with genetically confirmed Huntington's to monitor for side effects and early signs of benefit. The main goal is to check safety over 12 months while also tracking changes in movement, brain scans, and thinking skills.
