Title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Phase II Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of XS228 Cell Injection in Patients with Subacute Thoracic or Lumbar SCI Study Type: Interventional (Clinical Trial) Phase: Phase II Allocation: Randomized (2:1, XS228 vs. Placebo) Masking: Double-blind (Participant, Investigator) Primary Purpose: Treatment Hypothesis: XS228 (allogeneic iPSC-derived motor neuron progenitor cells) will demonstrate statistically significant improvement in motor function (ASIA Motor Score) compared to placebo at 6 months post-treatment. The therapy will exhibit an acceptable safety profile with no dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs). Intervention Details Investigational Product: XS228 Cell Injection: Cryopreserved suspension of optimal dose from Phase I. Placebo: Normal saline with identical packaging/labeling. Administration: 4 intrathecal injection via lumbar puncture (Day 0, Day 14, Day 28 and Day 42). Concomitant Therapies: Standard rehabilitation protocols (uniform across sites). Prohibited: Other experimental therapies or stem cell treatments during the study.
