Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: To be eligible to enter the study candidates must satisfy all of the following criteria: 1. Age 18 to 65, both sexes 2. Traumatic isolated closed or open Gustilo I and II, IIIA and IIIB humerus, tibial or femur diaphyseal or metaphysodiaphyseal fracture with a status of atrophic, oligotrophic or normotrophic non-union. A non-union is defined as a fracture not healed at least 9 months after the originating trauma, that meets the following criteria (Weber 1986): - Insufficient bone bridging to stabilize the fracture - Insufficient bone biological activity in the fracture - Failure of previous treatments 3. Able to understand, accept and sign informed consent 4. Medical health coverage 5. Able to understand and accept the study constraints Are the trial subjects under 18? no Number of subjects for this age range: F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 108 F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) no F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Hypertrophic non-unions 2. Segmental bone loss requiring specific therapy (bone transport, vascularized graft, large structural allograft, megaprosthesis, etc) 3. Unrecovered vascular or neural injury 4. Other fractures causing interference with weight bearing 5. Visceral injuries or diseases interfering with callus formation (severe cranioencephalic trauma, etc.) 6. Active infection of any location and aetiology 7. Surgical contraindication of any cause 8. Pregnancy, breast feeding women and women who are of childbearing age and not practicing adequate birth control. The following methods are considered adequate: - Combined hormonal contraception - Injected hormonal contraception - Implanted hormonal contraception - Progesterone-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation - Placement of an intrauterine device (IUD) - Placement of intrauterine hormone-realising system (IUS) 9. Malignant tumor (past history or concurrent disease)(except carcinoma in situ or basalioma in remission) 10. History of bone harvesting on iliac crest contraindicating new iliac crest bone graft harvesting or bone marrow collection 11. Insulin dependent diabetes 12. Any evidence (confirmed by PCR) of active infection with HIV, Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C infection 13. Any evidence of Syphilis 14. Known allergies to products involved in the production process of MSC 15. Corticoid or immunosuppressive therapy more than one week in the three months prior to study inclusion 16. Autoimmune inflammatory disease 17. Current treatment by biphosphonates not stopped three months prior to study inclusion 18. Impossibility to meet at the appointments for the follow up 19. Participation in another therapeutic trial in the previous 3 months 20. Second non-union in case of bilateral or multiple non-unions (only one non-union per patient will be included in the trial)

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To determine if the combined treatment of hBM-MSC+Biomaterial(G2) is superior to Iliac Crest Autologous Graft(G1) to obtain bone consolidation at 12 months after surgery of diaphyseal and/or metaphysodiaphyseal fractures (femur, tibia, humerus) with status of non-union (more than 9 months after the acute fracture);Secondary Objective: * Compare % bone consolidation between G1 and G2 arms at 6 and 24 months after surgery (m. aft. surg.) * Compare, G1 and G2 arms, at 6, 12 and 24 m. aft. surg., the following: - Radiological consolidation with REBORNE-scale - Pain w/ and w/o weight bearing - Rate of re-intervention in the callus - Complication rate - Assess safety of autologous hBM-MSCs - Physical & metal health status * Identify associated factors to bone consolidation (time from the acute fracture, type of prior-surgery, severity, and country) and * Determine if G2b is non-inferior to G2a to obtain radiological consolidation at 12 months after surgery. * Compare radiological consolidation, w/ REBORNE-Scale, between G2a and G2b arms at basal, 24 and 96 w. aft. surg. * Compare, between G2a and G2b arms, at 6, 12 and 24 m. aft. surg., the following: - % bone consolidation - Pain w/ and w/o weight bearing - Rate of re-intervention in the callus - Complication rate - Physical & metal health status;Primary end point(s): The percentage of patients with bone consolidation (Yes/No) in the G1 (comparator) and G2 (experimental) treatment arms at 12 months after the surgery. A superiority test will compare this endpoint in both treatment arms. Each endpoint will be estimated as the number of bone consolidations in each arm, over the total number of treated patients in each arm. For this first primary endpoint, bone consolidation will be considered achieved when all three of the following criteria are met: a) Radiographic bone bridging: New bone formation across the fracture site visible in 3/4 cortices, on at least 3/4 views (Front views: Internal and e

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): EFFICACY ENDPOINTS: ** G1/G2 arms - Percentage of patients with bone consolidation (Yes/No) in the G1 and G2 treatment arms at 6 and 24 months after surgery. Estimated as the number of bone consolidations in each arm, over the total number of treated patients in each arm. For this endpoint, bone consolidation was defined as previously established for the primary endpoint. - Radiological punctuation score using the REBORNE-Scale in the G1 and G2 treatment arms of treatment at 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery calculated in xR images (and/or CT for ratify purpose). - Pain scale value in the G1 and G2 treatment arms at basal baseline, 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery, using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) for pain (from 0 to 10). - Rate of reoperation in the callus site in G1 and G2 arms of treatment arms at 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery. - Average percentage of the Short Form-36 Health Survey at baseline, 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery. ** G2b/G2a arms: - Radiological score in the G2a (High dose of hBM-MSC+Biomaterial) and G2b (Low dose of hBM-MSC+Biomaterial) treatment arms at 12 months after surgery. This endpoint will be calculated using the REBORNE-Scale, which can obtain a score ranging from 0 to 1. The score will be calculated in xR images (and/or CT for ratify ratification purposes) using a specific formula. - Radiological score using the REBORNE-Scale in the G2a and G2b treatment arms at 6 and 24 months after surgery calculated in XR images (and/or CT for ratify purpose). - Percentage of bone consolidation (Yes/No) in the G2a and G2b treatment arms at 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery. Estimated as the number of bone consolidations in each arm, over the total number of treated patients in each arm . For this endpoint, bone consolidation was defined as previously established for the primary endpoint. - Pain scale value in the G2a and G2b treatment arms at baseline, 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery, using Numeric Ra
