A Pilot Study to Assess the Effect of Adding 1 Infusion of Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells (hMSC) to Patients Treated With Anti-Amyloid Monoclonal Antibodies Who Are Suffering From Mild Cognitive Impairment or Mild Alzheimer's Disease.
Bernard (Barry) Baumel
Summary
The purpose of this study is to test if adding one infusion of (Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells) hMSCs to the treatment with standard of care (SOC) monoclonal antibodies (mAb) will stabilize the rate of cognitive and functional decline associated with mild Alzheimer's Disease.
