Melbourne’s Mesoblast has received approval to being a Phase II trial of its allogeneic stem cell product NeoFuse in cervical spine fusion.

The trial, to be held at Melbourne’s Epworth Hospital, will compare NeoFuse with autograft. Twenty-four patients with irreversible, end-stage degenerative disc disease will take part in the randomised, controlled trial.

Mesoblast is also working on lumbar spinal fusion and on repair or regeneration of discs in patients with earlier stage disease.
