Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of allogenic pluripotent stem cells isolated from adipose tissue (PASCs) in patients with Parkinson's Disease.

Detailed Description

Pluripotent Adipose-Derived Stem Cells (PASCs) will be delivered intravenously at a dosage of 25 million PASCs/patient to Parkinson's Disease patients for three infusions each spaced 3 months apart (0...
