RESPINE

REgenerative therapy of intervertebral disc: a double blind phase 2b trial of intradiscal injection of mesenchymal stromal cells in degenerative disc disease of the lomber SPINE unresponsive to conventional therapy

The primary outcome of this trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of intradiscal injection of bone marrow mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (BM-MSCs) in reducing chronic lower back pain (LBP) using the visual analog scale (VAS) and functional status (Oswestry scale) after 12 months of treatment, defining responders in case of at least 20% improvement in VAS or Oswestry scale at month 12 compared to a baseline with absolute change of 20 mm on a 100 mm scale.
