a

The changes on Patient 1’s first brain MRI after 8 weeks of study treatment were inconclusive, and since he was neurologically stable, he continued with study treatment. When the second brain MRI approximately 8 weeks later showed definite tumor progression, re-review of the first brain MRI determined that those initial changes were from tumor growing, and so best response for him was changed to progression.

b

Patient 13 received only one dose of CD-NSCs due to migration of the Rickham catheter tip into the lateral ventricle; therefore, the patient was taken off the study.

c

Patient 16 experienced a dose-limiting toxicity (grade 3 wound infection) 3 weeks after start of study treatment, requiring removal of the Rickham catheter. Since he did not continue study treatment and chose to enroll in a hospice program, no further imaging of his brain was performed.
