- translation of the needle 510 may be effected by means of a lever system or pulley system, wherein rotation of a lever or pulley about a fulcrum or pivot applies an input force to a carriage to cause translation of the needle 510.
- rotation or translation of a dial or knob applies an input force to a carriage to cause translation of the needle 510.
- the injection handle 500 may contain biasing means to provide resistance to the translation of the needle 510 towards the catheter tip.
- the biasing means may bias the needle away from the catheter tip when the input force is removed.
- an embodiment of the injection handle 500 is subsequently described in more detail, wherein the translation of the needle 510 is effected by a sliding arrangement.
- injection handles with other means of controlling translation of the needle 510 such as described above, may alternatively be used.
- the injection handle 500 comprises a barrel 520 defining a bore 522 extending between a first end 524 and a second end 526 of the barrel 520.
- the injection handle 500 may comprise a needle actuator hub 530 configured to receive the needle 510.
- the needle actuator hub 530 may be connected to the control handle 400 via the tether cable 492.
- the needle actuator hub 530 may be connected to the first end 524 of the barrel 520.
- the needle actuator hub 530 may comprise a threaded connection 531 that engages with a corresponding threaded connection 523 inside the bore 522 of the barrel 520 to prevent movement of the needle actuator hub 530 relative to the barrel 520.
- the injection handle 500 may further comprise a piston 540 configured to slide within the bore 522.
- the injection handle 500 may further comprise a spring 550 configured to resist sliding of the piston 540 towards the first end 524 of the barrel 520.
- the spring 550 may be disposed in the bore 522.
- the spring 550 may contact the needle actuator hub 530. As the needle actuator hub 530 may be fixed relative to the barrel, sliding the piston 540 relative to the barrel 520 compresses the spring 550.
- the needle 510 may be encased within a tube 560 (such as Hypotube) to protect the needle 510 from compression and extension of the spring 550.
- the piston 540 may be received in the injection handle 500 at the second end 526 of the barrel 520.
- the injection handle 500 is configured to safely retain the needle 510 in the catheter 100, for example during injection.
- the injection handle 500 may be configured to retract the needle 510 into the tip assembly 300 after delivering a composition.
- the spring 550 may cause the needle 510 to be retracted into the tip section 300, sheathing the needle 510 and covering the sharp point of the needle.
- the spring 550 may retract the needle 510 immediately upon release of the actuation force on the piston 540. This improves safety for the patient as the needle tip is not left exposed when the composition is not being delivered.
- the needle assembly 600 is configured to deliver the composition to the target site.
- the needle assembly 600 comprises a flexible needle 510 extending from a needle hub 610.
- the needle hub 610 is configured to be connected to the piston 540 of the injection handle 500.
- the needle 510 may extend through the injection handle 500.
- the needle hub 610 When the needle hub 610 is connected to the piston 540, the needle 510 may extend through the control handle 400, through the first lumen 240 of the catheter tube 200, and into the delivery lumen 312 of the tip assembly 300. Sliding of the piston 540 towards the first end of the barrel 520 may cause the needle 510 to extend through the tip assembly 300 to deliver the composition.
- the needle hub 610 is subsequently described in more detail in Figs. 6A-6C.
- Fig. 5B shows an assembled side view of the injection handle 500.
- Fig. 5C is a section view of the injection handle 500, taken along the line marked in Fig. 5B.
- the needle actuator hub 530 may comprise a body 532 and a spigot 534.
- the spigot 534 may have a smaller diameter than the body 532 to define a shoulder 536.
- the spring 550 may abut and sit on the shoulder 536 so that the spigot 534 extends into the spring 550, which may stabilise the spring 550 and encourage it to compress along its longitudinal axis instead of bending or buckling.
- the spigot 534 defines a contact face 538 that that may be abutted by a proximal end 541 A of the piston 540, limiting its travel.
- the injection handle 500 further comprises a needle actuator ring 542 on the piston 540.
- the needle actuator ring 542 may be configured to provide a grip for the user to move the plunger 540 within the bore 522, for example to inject the composition.
- the needle actuator ring 542 may be configured to limit the sliding/translation of the piston 540 within the bore 522. This may accordingly limit the amount that the needle 510 may extend beyond the tip assembly 300, which may improve safety for the patient.
- the needle actuator ring 542 has a larger diameter than the piston 540, so that as the piston 540 slides within the bore 522 towards the first end 524 of the barrel 520, the needle actuator ring 542 eventually abuts the second end 526 of the barrel 520, preventing further translation of the piston 540.
- the needle actuator ring 542 may be configured to engage with the piston 540 to adjust the travel of the piston 540 within the bore 522.
- the needle actuator ring 542 may be slid along the piston 540 and locked at a specific point on the piston 540.
- the needle actuator ring 542 comprises a threaded portion 544 that is configured to allow the needle actuator ring 542 to rotate along a corresponding thread 546 disposed on the outside of the piston 540. Rotating the needle actuator ring 542 to travel along the piston 540 may shorten or lengthen a distance that the piston 540 is able to slide within the bore 522.
- a pin 548 may lock the needle actuator ring 542 into a set position along the piston 540.
- the injection handle 500 may further comprise a groove 570 and pin 572.
- the groove 570 may be formed on the piston 540.
- the groove 570 may extend along a length of the piston 540.
- the pin 572 may be configured to engage with the groove 570 to limit the sliding of the piston 540 within the bore 522 to the length of the groove 570.
- the pin 572 may be configured to engage with the groove 570 to limit rotation of the piston 540 within the bore 522.
- the pin 572 may be configured to engage with the groove 570 to resist a spring force exerted by the spring 550 on the piston 540.
- the pin 572 may abut an extremity of the groove 570, preventing further travel of the piston 540.
- the groove 570 and the pin 572 may limit the amount that the piston 540 can travel, thereby limiting the amount that the needle 510 may extend beyond the tip assembly 300, which may improve safety for the patient.

- MPSC meenchymal lineage precursor or stem cell
- MPSC mesenchymal lineage precursor or stem cell
- a “mesenchymal lineage precursor cell” refers to a cell which can differentiate into a mesenchymal cell such as bone, cartilage, muscle and fat cells, and fibrous connective tissue.
- mesenchymal lineage precursor or stem cells includes both parent cells and their undifferentiated progeny.
- the term also includes mesenchymal precursor cells (MPCs), multipotent stromal cells, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), perivascular mesenchymal precursor cells, and their undifferentiated progeny.
- MLPSCs can be autologous, allogeneic, xenogenic, syngenic or isogenic. Autologous cells are isolated from the same individual to which they will be reimplanted. Allogeneic cells are isolated from a donor of the same species. Xenogenic cells are isolated from a donor of another species. Syngenic or isogenic cells are isolated from genetically identical organisms, such as twins, clones, or highly inbred research animal models.
- the MLPSCs are allogeneic.
- the allogeneic MLPSCs are culture expanded and cryopreserved.
- MLPSCs reside primarily in the bone marrow, but have also shown to be present in diverse host tissues including, for example, cord blood and umbilical cord, adult peripheral blood, adipose tissue, trabecular bone and dental pulp. They are also found in skin, spleen, pancreas, brain, kidney, liver, heart, retina, brain, hair follicles, intestine, lung, lymph node, thymus, ligament, tendon, skeletal muscle, dermis, and periosteum; and are capable of differentiating into germ lines such as mesoderm and/or endoderm and/or ectoderm.
- MLPSCs are capable of differentiating into a large number of cell types including, but not limited to, adipose, osseous, cartilaginous, elastic, muscular, and fibrous connective tissues.
- the specific lineage-commitment and differentiation pathway which these cells enter depends upon various influences from mechanical influences and/or endogenous bioactive factors, such as growth factors, cytokines, and/or local microenvironmental conditions established by host tissues.
- enriched enriched or enrichment or variations thereof are used herein to describe a population of cells in which the proportion of one particular cell type or the proportion of a number of particular cell types is increased when compared with an untreated population of the cells (e.g., cells in their native environment).
- a population enriched for MLPSCs comprises at least about 0.1% or 0.5% or 1% or 2% or 5% or 10% or 15% or 20% or 25% or 30% or 50% or 75% MLPSCs.
- the term “population of cells enriched for MLPSCs” will be taken to provide explicit support for the term “population of cells comprising X% MLPSCs”, wherein X% is a percentage as recited herein.
- the MLPSCs can, in some examples, form clonogenic colonies, e.g. CFU-F (fibroblasts) or a subset thereof (e.g., 50% or 60% or 70% or 70% or 90% or 95%) can have this activity.
- the MLPSCs are culture expanded from a population of MLPSCs which comprise about 1% to 75% STRO-1+ cells. In another example, the MLPSCs are culture expanded from a population of MLPSCs which comprise about 0.1% to 75% STRO-1+ cells. In another example, the MLPSCs are culture expanded from a population of MLPSCs which comprise about 10% to 75% STRO-1+ cells.
- the MLPSCs are mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs).
- the MSCs may be a homogeneous composition or may be a mixed cell population enriched in MSCs.
- Homogeneous MSC compositions may be obtained by culturing adherent marrow or periosteal cells, and the MSCs may be identified by specific cell surface markers which are identified with unique monoclonal antibodies.
- a method for obtaining a cell population enriched in MSCs is described, for example, in U.S. Patent No. 5,486,359.
- Alternative sources for MSCs include, but are not limited to, blood, skin, cord blood, muscle, fat, bone, and perichondrium.
- the MSCs are allogeneic.
- the MSCs are cryopreserved.
- the MSCs are culture expanded and cryopreserved.
- the MLPSCs are CD29+, CD54+, CD73+, CD90+, CD102+, CD105+, CD106+, CD166+, MHC1+ MSCs.
- Isolated or enriched MLPSCs can be expanded in vitro by culture. Isolated or enriched MLPSCs can be cryopreserved, thawed and subsequently expanded in vitro by culture.
- cultured MLPSCs are phenotypically different to cells in vivo. For example, in one embodiment they express one or more of the following markers, CD44, NG2, DC 146 and CD 140b. Cultured MLPSCs are also biologically different to cells in vivo, having a higher rate of proliferation compared to the largely non-cycling (quiescent) cells in vivo.
- the population of cells is enriched from a cell preparation comprising STRO-1+ cells in a selectable form.
- the term “selectable form” will be understood to mean that the cells express a marker (e.g., a cell surface marker) permitting selection of the STRO-1+ cells.
- the marker can be STRO-1, but need not be.
- cells e.g., mesenchymal precursor cells (MPCs)
- MPCs mesenchymal precursor cells
- TNAP STRO-2 and/or STRO-3
- STRO-4 and/or VCAM-1 and/or CD146 and/or 3G5 also express STRO-1 (and can be STRO-1 bright).
- an indication that cells are STRO-1+ does not mean that the cells are selected solely by STRO-1 expression.
- the cells are selected based on at least STRO-3 expression, e.g., they are STRO-3+ (TNAP+).
- the MPCs can be isolated from bone mononuclear cells with an anti-STRO-3 antibody.
- STRO-1+ cells can be selected from or isolated from or enriched from a large variety of sources. That said, in some examples, these terms provide support for selection from any tissue comprising STRO-1+ cells (e.g., mesenchymal precursor cells) or vascularized tissue or tissue comprising pericytes (e.g., STRO-1+ pericytes) or any one or more of the tissues recited herein.
- tissue comprising STRO-1+ cells e.g., mesenchymal precursor cells

- TNAP tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase
- LAP liver isoform
- BAP bone isoform
- KAP kidney isoform
- the TNAP is BAP.
- TNAP as used herein refers to a molecule which can bind the STRO-3 antibody produced by the hybridoma cell line deposited with ATCC on 19 December 2005 under the provisions of the Budapest Treaty under deposit accession number PTA-7282.
- the STRO-1+ cells are capable of giving rise to clonogenic CFU-F.
- a significant proportion of the STRO-1+ cells are capable of differentiation into at least two different germ lines.
- the lineages to which the STRO-1+ cells may be committed include bone precursor cells; hepatocyte progenitors, which are multipotent for bile duct epithelial cells and hepatocytes; neural restricted cells, which can generate glial cell precursors that progress to oligodendrocytes and astrocytes; neuronal precursors that progress to neurons; precursors for cardiac muscle and cardiomyocytes, glucose-responsive insulin secreting pancreatic beta cell lines.
- lineages include, but are not limited to, odontoblasts, dentin-producing cells and chondrocytes, and precursor cells of the following: retinal pigment epithelial cells, fibroblasts, skin cells such as keratinocytes, dendritic cells, hair follicle cells, renal duct epithelial cells, smooth and skeletal muscle cells, testicular progenitors, vascular endothelial cells, tendon, ligament, cartilage, adipocyte, fibroblast, marrow stroma, cardiac muscle, smooth muscle, skeletal muscle, pericyte, vascular, epithelial, glial, neuronal, astrocyte and oligodendrocyte cells.

- MLPSCs encompassed by the present disclosure may also be cryopreserved prior to administration to a subject.
- MLPSCs are culture expanded and cryopreserved prior to administration to a subject.
- the present disclosure encompasses MLPSCs as well as progeny thereof, soluble factors derived therefrom, and/or extracellular vesicles isolated therefrom.
- the present disclosure encompasses MLPSCs as well as extracellular vesicles isolated therefrom. For example, it is possible to culture expand MLPSCs of the disclosure for a period of time and under conditions suitable for secretion of extracellular vesicles into the cell culture medium. Secreted extracellular vesicles can subsequently be obtained from the culture medium for use in therapy.
- extracellular vesicles refers to lipid particles naturally released from cells and ranging in size from about 30 nm to as a large as 10 microns, although typically they are less than 200 nm in size. They can contain proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, metabolites, or organelles from the releasing cells (e.g., mesenchymal stem cells; STRO-1 + cells).
- culture conditions refers to cells growing in culture.
- culture conditions refers to an actively dividing population of cells.
- Such cells may, in an example, be in exponential growth phase.
- the cells may be in a stationary phase.
- soluble factors and/or extracellular vesicles obtained from cells growing under culture conditions are obtained after at least two or three days in culture. In another example, the soluble factors and/or extracellular vesicles are obtained after about 30 to 84 hours of co-culture.
- biologic compositions include gene therapy products.
- such products function by transfer of genetic materials into cells, for example cells in the heart of a subject to be treated. It will be appreciated by those of skill in the art that such products may be provided in their own delivery system such as a cell population, liposome or the like.
