Patients were allocated to either the experimental (XBS + 10 × 106 PDL-MSCs/100 mg) or the control group (XBS). Clinical and radiographical parameters were recorded at baseline, 6, 9 and 12 months. The presence of adverse events was also evaluated. Chi-square, Student's t test, Mann-Whitney U, repeated-measures ANOVA and regression models were used.Results: Twenty patients were included. No serious adverse events were reported. Patients in the experimental group (n = 9) showed greater clinical attachment level (CAL) gain (1.44, standard deviation [SD] = 1.87) and probing pocket depth (PPD) reduction (2.33, SD = 1.32) than the control group (n = 10; CAL gain = 0.88, SD = 1.68, and PPD reduction = 2.10, SD = 2.46), without statistically significant differences.Conclusion: The application of PDL-MSCs to XBS for the treatment of one- to two-wall intra-bony lesions was safe and resulted in low postoperative morbidity and appropriate healing, although its additional benefit, when compared with the XBS alone, was not demonstrated.
