SEOUL, South Korea and SHANGHAI – XellSmart unveiled new clinical data for its off-the-shelf cell therapy designed for Parkinson's Disease. The company presented these findings at the International Congress of Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorders (MDS).

Researchers shared information from the Phase 1 clinical trial of the therapy. Additionally, XellSmart announced the completion of blinded enrollment for the Phase 2 portion of the study.

The therapy represents an allogeneic, or off-the-shelf, treatment. This means doctors can administer the treatment without needing patient-specific cell donations.
