First seen Jan 23, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 12 times
Summary
This early-phase study tested whether injecting human neural stem cells into the brain is safe for people with Parkinson's disease. Twelve participants received the cell therapy at different doses. The main goal was to check for side effects, not to cure the disease, so ongoing Parkinson's treatment is still needed.
