Brief Summary

This study is a Phase I/II clinical study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of XS411 in the treatment of EOPD. The study consists of two phases: Phase I and Phase II.

Phase I study is planned to be conducted in patients with EOPD, using a single-arm, open-label, traditional " 3+3 " dose-escalation design, aiming to investigate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of XS411 in the treatment of EOPD and to determine the RP2D.

Phase I study enrolls 6-12 patients with EOPD. Two dose cohorts (3-6 patients/dose cohort) are planned: 9×10⁶ cells /patient and 1.8 ×10⁷ cells /patient. Each participant will receive a single injection of XS411. Each participant in each dose cohort will be observed for at least 28 days after dosing . If no DLTs occur and the investigator has no other safety concerns for that participant, the next participant in that dose cohort will be enrolled.

Phase II study is planned for patients with EOPD, using a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled, parallel-group design . The study will investigate the efficacy and safety of XS411 in the treatment of EOPD . Phase II study currently plans to enroll 81 patients with EOPD. The patients will be randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to either the experimental or control group. Participants in the experimental group will receive a single injection of XS411 in combination with an immunosuppressant at the RP2D determined during the Phase I dose-escalation phase (which may be adjusted based on the Phase II study results). The control group will receive a sham procedure in combination with an immunosuppressant sham.

• Able to accept surgical anesthesia, suitable for neurosurgery under anesthesia, and able to undergo brain CT /MRI examination;
• Participants agree to postpone any other elective neurosurgery until the completion of the 24-month follow-up study;
• Participants agreed not to participate in any other clinical studies within 24 months after dosing;
• Participants or their legal representatives understand and comply with the research procedures, voluntarily participate and sign the ICF

Exclusion Criteria

• Patients are in the late stages of PD and are experiencing severe, disabling peak-dose dyskinesia or biphasic dyskinesia and/or unpredictable or widely fluctuating symptoms;
• Have previously undergone neuronucleotomy, deep brain stimulation (DBS), striatal surgery, extrapyramidal surgery, stereotactic brain surgery, or other brain surgery; or who have undergone other surgical procedures that the investigator determined would affect participation in this study; or who have surgical contraindications
• Patients currently receiving L-dopa intestinal instillation, apomorphine injection, or continuous daily infusion of anti-PD drugs;
• Patients who had used botulinum toxin, phenol, subarachnoid injection of baclofen, or received interventional treatment for dystonia or spasticity within 6 months before medication;
• Have used glucocorticoids or immunosuppressive drugs for a long time within 3 months before the screening visit;
• Those who have received cell therapy before;
• Patients who received electroconvulsive therapy within 30 days before administration;
• Those who have received or plan to receive vaccines during the trial within 3 months before screening, such as vaccines for novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19), influenza, herpes zoster, and pneumococcal vaccine;

• Severe anxiety at screening;
• Patients whose previous head CT/MRI examinations showed brain injuries such as brain trauma, cerebral vascular malformation, hydrocephalus, brain tumors, or abnormal brain imaging of the striatum and other brain regions, which significantly increased the surgical risk;
