FCR001 is a cryopreserved allogeneic stem cell therapy derived from mobilized peripheral blood of the kidney donor that is delivered as a single dose with a non- myeloablative conditioning regimen. FCR001 contains the donor's CD34+ cells, facilitating cells, and αβ T cells.
Group II: ControlActive Control1 Intervention
