The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and effectiveness of two infusions of characterized HLA-identical MSC in non immunosuppressed children with Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI).

Two Mesenchymal Stem Cell infusions

Mesenchymal Stem Cell Infusions

The principal aim of this trial is to assess the safety of non-mutated HLA-identical Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) transplantation for OI pediatric patients irrespective of treatment with biphosphonates. Since MSC are inherently non-immunogenic and do not elicit proliferation of allogeneic lymphocytes (in co-culture experiments), a cell therapy based on HLA-identical or histocompatible (at least 5 shared out of 6 HLA antigens) allogenic MSC may be accomplished without subjecting the patients to immunosuppressor treatment. Adverse secondary effects due to immunosuppressor treatment will be avoided using this strategy thus patients may benefit from two cellular infusions. The patients will be followed for 3 and a half years post their second and last MSC infusion.
