Safety and Efficacy of SC0806 (Fibroblast Growth Factor 1 and a Device) in Traumatic Spinal Cord Injury Subjects
About this trial
This trial is recruiting individuals with chronic complete thoracic (chest area) spinal cord injuries to test implantation of a biodegradable device containing nerve segments and growth molecules intended to boost nerve activity. The primary focus of the study is safety; motor improvements will also be measured by spinal cord motor nerve conduction. If included, participants will randomly undergo device implant surgery and walking training, or walking training only (control group). Follow-up will occur over 18 months. The control group will be offered surgical implantation of the device after completion of the study, if there are no major safety concerns.
