- Registration Number
- NCT05018637
- Lead Sponsor
- Inbo Han
- Brief Summary
Osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) are serious health problems. Transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has gained considerable attention to treat osteoporosis and OVCFs because implanted healthy MSCs could be differentiated into osteoblasts and reduce the susceptibility of fractures by facilitating new bone formation.
This study compares teriparatide (PTH 1-34) injection to combined treatment with Wharton's jelly-derived MSCs (WJ-MSCs) and teriparatide (PTH 1-34) in patients with OVCFs.
It is a randomized, open-label, phase 2 study.

-
In case of writing consent for stem cell transplantation therapy
- Those who used osteoporosis treatment (bisphosphonate, selective estrogen receptor modulator, or parathyroid hormone) 6 months before the start of the clinical trial due to osteoporotic vertebral fracture.
- In the case of inherited, metabolic, neoplastic, or infectious bone disease other than osteoporosis
- Spinal fracture with neurological symptoms
- Those who are taking drugs that affect bone metabolism such as steroids.
- Those who have undergone spinal fixation surgery on the fracture site prior to the clinical trial
- Those who have a history of psychiatry or who are currently undergoing treatment, who have judged that it is difficult to proceed with the clinical trial under the judgment of the researcher
- Those who do not understand the purpose and method of this clinical trial as a study subject for drug or alcohol addiction
- Those who participated in other clinical trials within 30 days prior to participation in the clinical trial
- Those who may affect this clinical trial due to serious medical conditions (hypertension not controlled by drugs, diabetes not controlled by drugs, blood coagulation disease, cirrhosis, kidney failure, tumor) or immune deficiency
- Factors less than 10 g/dL of hemoglobin in general blood test
- If there is currently an acute systemic or local infection

Group Intervention Description WJ-MSC group Teriparatide intramedullary injection of 4 x 107 WJ-MSCs (direct injection into the recently fractured vertebra) at baseline (day 0). subcutaneous injection of 20 µg teriparatide once daily for 6 months, followed by oral administration of anti-resorptive drug for 6 months. Teriparatide group Teriparatide subcutaneous injection of 20 µg teriparatide once daily for 6 months, followed by oral administration of anti-resorptive drug for 6 months. WJ-MSC group WJ-MSC intramedullary injection of 4 x 107 WJ-MSCs (direct injection into the recently fractured vertebra) at baseline (day 0). subcutaneous injection of 20 µg teriparatide once daily for 6 months, followed by oral administration of anti-resorptive drug for 6 months.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method improvement in Visual Analogue Scale 12 months Change in the VAS at 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after the transplantation of Wharton's jelly-derived MSCs (WJ-MSCs), compared to before the transplantation.
on a scale of 0 to 10, with 0 meaning no pain and 10 meaning the worst pain you can imagine.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method improvement in Oswestry Disability Index 12 months Change in the ODI at 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after the transplantation of WJ-MSCs, compared to before the transplantation.
on a scale of 0 to 3, with 0 meaning no disability and 10 meaning severe disabilityChange in the T score (lumbar spine and femoral neck) of dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry 12 months Change in the T score (lumbar spine and femoral neck) of dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry at 6 and 12 months after the transplantation compared to before the transplantation
Presence of new vertebral fracture 12 months identification of spine fracture based on x ray
Change in the bone mineral density (computed tomography) of fractured vertebrae 12 months Change in the bone mineral density (computed tomography) at 6 and 12 months after the transplantation compared to before the transplantation
