Cell Therapy in HFpEF

NCT02923609 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: PHASE2 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 30

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The primary objective of the study is to investigate safety and efficacy of transendocardial CD34+ cell therapy in patients with HFpEF by evaluating changes in myocardial structure and function, patient exercise capacity and clinical outcome.

The safety end-points include serious adverse events (SAEs), defined as any serious event that may result in persistent or significant disability or incapacity and included death, heart transplantation, sustained ventricular arrhythmia (ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation), and heart failure exacerbation requiring hospitalization.

Conditions

  • Heart Failure With Normal Ejection Fraction

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

Cell Therapy

Electro-anatomical mapping will be performed using the Biosense NOGA system (Biosense-Webster, Diamond Bar, California). Local diastolic function will be assessed by a novel algorhithm that allows for the measuring local ventricular relaxation times at each of the sampling points. Target areas for cell delivery will be defined as the myocardial segments with the evidence of local diastolic dysfunction and myocardial hibernation. Transendocardial delivery of cell suspension in the SC Group will be performed with MyoStar® (Biosense Webster) injection catheter. Each patient will receive 20 injections of 0.3 mL of stem cell suspension.
