Brief Summary

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

This is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose range finding study in subjects who have diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). The study will enroll approximately 24 subjects. Subjects will be randomized to receive one of 3 treatments: PDA-002 (3 x 10\^6 cells), PDA-002 (30 x 10\^6 cells), or placebo (vehicle control) in a 1:1:1 randomization approach. Investigational product or placebo will be administered monthly (3 administrations total on Study Days 1, 29, and 57).

Detailed Description

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

Subjects will undergo a Screening Period (up to 28 days in duration) to determine study eligibility and baseline levels of signs and symptoms of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) will be established. Subjects will then enter a Treatment Period (6 months in duration). During the Treatment Period, subjects will be evaluated on an ongoing basis (at 8 scheduled study visits). Subjects will receive intramuscular (IM) injections of investigational product (IP) on Study Days 1, 29, and 57 as fifteen 0.30 mL injections (below the knee and above the ankle) in one lower extremity in a blinded manner. After completing the Treatment Period, subjects will enter the Follow-up Period where they will continue to be evaluated at scheduled study visits over the subsequent months.

An analysis of all study data will occur after the last subject has completed Visit 9 (Month 6) and after the last scheduled study visit.
