About this trial

This Phase 1 trial is enrolling individuals with spinal cord injuries assessed to be complete (AIS A) within 21 days, to test the safety and efficacy of functional neural regeneration collagen scaffold transplantation. This is a procedure in which a scaffold made of collagen is implanted into the injured spinal cord. If included, participants will undergo surgery for transplantation of the scaffold followed by comprehensive rehabilitation and psychological assessment. Final testing of safety and neurological function will be performed after 12 months.
