Late Breaking Surgical Safety Data to be Presented This Week atMDS International Congress of Parkinson’s Disease and Movement Disorders
Aspen Neuroscience announced today that it has successfully completed dosing of the first cohort of patients in theASPIRO study. Surgical safety data from this cohort has been accepted for late breaking presentations this week at the MDS International Congress of Parkinson’s Disease and Movement Disorders, taking place in Philadelphia September 27 – October 1.
“We are honored to have been accepted by the Society to present surgical safety from our first cohort of patients in our first-in-human trial,” said Edward Wirth III, MD, PhD, Chief Medical Officer of Aspen Neuroscience. “We have made tremendous progress since launching the study earlier this year, and we look forward to sharing these data with our esteemed movement disorder colleagues.”
The Autologous-derived Study of a Parkinson’s Investigational Regenerative therapy in an Open-label trial (ASPIRO) is a Phase 1/2a clinical trial to assess the safety, tolerability, and potential efficacy of ANPD001 in patients with moderate to severe Parkinson’s disease (PD). The primary study endpoint is safety and tolerability of ANPD001.
The cell transplantation approachused in the study was developed by the trial’s lead neurosurgeon and renowned MRI-guided stereotactic neurosurgery pioneer Paul Larson, MD, FAANS, professor of neurosurgery at the University of Arizona College of Medicine – Tucson and neurosurgeon at Banner University Medical Center, Tucson.
In addition to multiple scientific presentations, Aspen will participate as a Bronze Level sponsor, showcasing company highlights at booth #1003.
