Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Safety of HepaStem in paediatric patients suffering from CN or UCD6 months

Evaluation of the clinical status, portal-vein hemodynamics, morphology of the liver, de novo detection of circulating anti-HLA antibodies, and/or other immune related markers as well as Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and clinically significant Adverse Events (AEs) related to infusion.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Long-term safety profile of HepaStem in both indicationsFrom 6 to 12 months post-administration

Assessment of reactogenicity and safety of the treatment during 6 to 12 months post infusion (long-term safety) is evaluated.

Preliminary efficacy of HepaStem in both indications (CN and UCD) and for different weight cohorts0-6 months, 6-12 months

UCD: 13C tracer test to measure ureagenesis, ammonium values, amino acids in plasma, neuropsychological assessment and quality of life indicators: (1) report on actual supportive treatment and any adjustment of diet (protein restriction (low protein diet) and amino acids supplements). (2) report on cognitive skills, behaviour, and health related quality of life effect).

CN: measure of the blood unconjugated bilirubin and serum total bilirubin levels and quality of life indicators: (1) adjustment of duration of phototherapy, (2) report on cognitive skills, behaviour, and (3) health related quality of life effect.
