Exclusion Criteria

Current symptoms and/or signs related to the disease under study:
1. Definitive reduction at the fracture site under investigation performed with plate, screw or external fixator
2. Subjects who did not receive a standard antibiotic prophylaxis before definitive reduction at the fracture site under investigation
3. Intra-articular tibial pilon and/or plateau fracture at the site under investigation
4. Known osteomyelitis at the fracture site under investigation
5. Bone defect post-definitive reduction greater than 1cm at least on 2 cortices at the fracture site under investigation
6. Fracture requiring vascular surgery at the site under investigation
7. Pathological fractures as judged by the Investigator, such as tumor or metabolic bone disease
8. Bifocal or multifocal fracture at the site under investigation

Current or previous diagnoses, signs and/or symptoms:
9. Presence of fever (defined as body temperature = 38°C) or other signs/symptoms suggestive of active infection before randomization
10. Severe brain trauma with a Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) [3 – 8] or severe spinal cord injury with impossibility of weight-bearing
11. Current or history (within 5 years) of any neoplasia (except for basal cell carcinoma of the skin and for carcinoma in situ of the cervix that has been treated with no evidence of recurrence)
12. Known metabolic diseases potentially interfering with bone healing as judged by the Investigator, such as thyroid dysfunction, Paget disease or severe osteoporosis
13. Planned or history of solid organ transplantation or bone marrow transplantation
14. Known disease, including genetic disease, that may possibly need solid organ transplantation
15. Subject with renal impairment requiring dialysis or with clinically significant renal impairment defined as serum creatinine >2.0 x ULN
16. Clinically significant hepatic function impairment defined as ALT/AST levels > 3x ULN or total bilirubin levels > 2 x ULN
17. Known hematologic disease as evidenced by hematocrit < 25%, white blood cell < 2,500/ul or platelet values < 100,000/ul without another explanation
18. Subject with an history of long standing poorly controlled chronic hypertension or diabetes that could put him at risk of needing a kidney transplant later on according to the Investigator
19. History of hypersensitivity to human biological material including blood and blood derived products
20. Known allergy to DMSO, dextran, gentamicin and any other aminoglycosides

Current or previous treatment:
21. Participation in another interventional clinical study within 3 months prior to screening
22. Any chronic intake of medication within one month that might affect bone metabolism or the quality of bone formation such as but not limited to bisphosphonates, teriparatide, systemic steroids, anticoagulant therapies, methotrexate and other immunosuppressant drugs or related immunotherapy
23. Previous (within 10 years) treatment with bisphosphonates
24. Current treatment with bone morphogenic protein or any other osteo-biologic intervention at the site of the tibial fracture
