This study aims to assess and compare the safety and effectiveness of Autologous Bone Marrow-Derived MSCs (AutoBM-MSCs) in one group(group A) of SCI who are unlikely to be able to walk independently without treatment after 1 year of SCI, in the other group (group B) to assess the second group of Wharton Jelly derived mesenchymal stem cells ( WJ-MSCs) in the treatment of acute and subacute spinal cord injury (SCI) patients.
The study will be directed by the Cell Therapy Center (CTC) in Jordan, where 20 SCI patients meeting the inclusion criteria will be recruited and divided according to the type of injury into two groups; Group A for patients with complete transection of the spinal cord, and Group B for SCI without a total transaction,10 patients will receive (AutoBM-MSCs)and the other 10 patients with acute and subacute spinal cord injury will receive(WJ-MSCs) by a specialized spine surgeon into the spinal medulla. The outcomes and improvements will be assessed using the American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) Impairment Scale (AIS) and the Spinal Cord Independence Measure (SCIM) version III, in addition to blood tests, MRI, and somatosensory evoked potential (SSEP).

|---|---|---|---|
| patients with complete transection of the spinal cord | Active Comparator | This group of patients with complete transection of the spinal cord group will then be subdivided into 2 subgroups with of 5 patients each; the 1st subgroup will be the patients with chronic SCI and the 2nd subgroup will be for the patients with subacute SCI. All patients will receive AutoBM-MSCs by a specialized spine surgeon into the spinal medulla. |

| Collection and expansion of BM-MSC | Biological | MSCs collection from patients owns marrow using a volume of 20 ml of bone marrow obtained from iliac crest of SCI patients under local anesthesia. Manipulations of blood and bone marrow are to be done according to Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) using the gradient sedimentation method. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| SCI evaluation and patients follow up | the (ASIA)/(ISNCSCI) to evaluate any motor or neurological changes, and the spinal cord independence measure (SCIM III) score to evaluate the effect on daily activities .these tests will be repeated every 3 months. blood samples will be withdrawn from patients as well to detect any biomarkers. | 3 months |
| SCI evaluation and MSCs transplantation | post MSCs transplantation, patients' spine will be imaged using 3 Tesla MRI and compared to baseline. | 6-12 months |
