RT>>Osiris stem-cell therapy wins Canadian approval

BOSTON (MarketWatch) -- Shares of Osiris Therapeutics jumped 14% to $5.60 in
after-hours trading Thursday on news that Canadian regulators have approved its
product Prochymal for the treatment of acute graft-vs-host disease, or GVHD, in
children. GVHD is a life-threatening complication associated with such procedures
as bone-marrow transplantation. Osiris added it was the world's first regulatory
approval for a manufactured stem-cell product. Prochymal will be commercially
available in Canada later this year.
