Osiris Therapeutics, Inc. has focused on the advancement of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) technologies both pre-clinically, in animal models of disease, and also in the clinic. In recent years, the Company has sponsored a number of clinical trials to evaluate product safety and efficacy.

The primary thrust of the near-term business strategy revolves around the clinical development of product candidates in a variety of indications. The inflammatory program focuses on providing support for bone marrow transplantation after chemotherapy or radiation therapy. The goal is to treat graft versus host disease (GvHD), a life-threatening complication following the receipt of bone marrow from another individual. The cardiac program focuses on MSCs to improve heart function following myocardial infarction (MI) and to prevent progression to congestive heart failure (CHF). Osiris Therapeutics has entered into a strategic alliance with Boston Scientific Corporation for this product area. In orthopedic applications, MSCs may be useful in regenerating meniscal tissue in the weeks following surgery for knee injuries, thereby preventing arthritis.
