Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

'ThRIL' aims to explore the feasibility, safety and efficacy of TR002, a regulatory cell therapy, as adjunct immunosuppressive treatment in the context of liver transplantation

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Stage I: To evaluate the safety of administering TR002 to liver transplant recipients.

Stage II: To evaluate the efficacy of TR002 administration in allowing for the discontinuation of immunosuppressive therapy in liver transplant recipients.
