Study summary

This is a prospective, randomised double blind, controlled, parallel-group phase I and II study. Its aim is to assess that a single intracoronary infusion of autologous bone marrow-mononuclear cells is safe and effective in hear failure patients with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction(\<=30%) when compared to a control group of patients undergoing best medical care.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Intracoronary injection of stem cell

    Autologous bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells injection in patients with Heart Failure

    Biological: Intracoronary injection of stem cell

  • Placebo comparator
    Placebo

    Placebo injection via coronary arteries in patients with Heart Failure

    Biological: Placebo

Interventions

  • BiologicalIntracoronary injection of stem cell

    Autologous bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells are obtained from 100-150ml of bone marrow aspirated under local anaesthesia from the iliac crest. Intracoronary infusion of the cells is performed in patients with Heart failure via conventional percutaneous intracoronary intervention techniques.
