Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Children diagnosed with OI type III or severe OI type IV 1. Clinical and molecular diagnosis of OI in the child (Glycine substitution in the collagen triple-helix encoding region of either the COL1A1 or COL1A2 gene) 1. Patient between 1-4 year of age 2. Bisphosphonate (BP) treatment initiated before inclusion 3. Parent/authorized representative over 18 years of age 4. Ability of the parent/authorized representative to give informed consent

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Signs of fever or infections 24 hours before infusion 2. Existence of other disorder that might interfere with the treatment (such as severe malformations, hypoxic encephalopathy (l-lll), neurological problems, immune deficiencies muscle diseases, syndromes 3. Abnormal karyotype 4. Any psychological, familial, sociological and/or geographical condition potentially hampering compliance with the study protocol and follow-up schedule

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary endpoints are seriousness, severity and frequency of treatment related adverse events (AEs), with specific focus on the following: Vital signs in conjunction with the MSC infusion Transfusion reactions (infusion toxicity, embolism, allergy, infections) Immunogenicity (reaction towards the cells, donor specific antibodies, graft rejection, Graft versus Host Disease, autoimmunity) Tumourigenicity Mortality/morbidity Timepoint: 4 Months up to 16 months

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Fracture frequency Time (days) to first fracture after each MSC infusion Change in BMD during 16 months after the first MSC infusion Change in growth (cm and kg) during 16 months after the first MSC infusion Change in clinical status of OI based on parameters defined under efficacy assessments described below during 16 months Change in biochemical bone turnover during 16 monthsTimepoint: 16 months
