Participant Flow

The study enrolled and treated 16 patients in total. 13 patients were treated with omidubicel and an unmanipulated CBU and these served as the primary analysis population for all study endpoints. Three additional patients who were exposed to omidubicel as a single graft source, were included in the safety summaries in order to encompass the entire population exposed to omidubicel.

NiCord: NiCord® is a cell-based product composed of umbilical cord-derived ex vivo expanded stem and progenitor cells. The primary safety objective was to assess the acute toxicity associated with the infusion of omidubicel within 24 hours post-infusion. Part 1: The primary efficacy objective of Part 1 was to assess the cumulative incidence of donor-derived neutrophil engraftment by Day 42 following co-transplantation of omidubicel and unmanipulated cord blood grafts.
