Declarations
:
: The study protocol “Avaliação da Dose-Resposta do Produto Investigacional Cellavita HD após Aplicação Intravenosa em Participantes com Doença de Huntington” was first approved by the ethical committee of Faculdade de Medicina de Jundiai (Approval number: 52375916.1.0000.5412) on 4, February 2016, conformed to the ICH-E6 guidelines. The last amendment was approved on December 26, 2019. All participants provided written informed consent before recruitment. This study was registered on clinicaltrials.gov (Identifier: NCT03252535). The investigational product evaluated in this study was originally developed under the name Cellavita HD. In March 2020, it was registered under the trademark NestaCell®. Both names refer to the same cell-based product. In this manuscript, the current designation NestaCell® is used consistently; however, the original name Cellavita HD is retained when citing regulatory documents—such as the ethics committee approval—where that designation was originally employed.
