Study summary

ADR-002K is administered to heart failure patients with ischemic heart disease who undergo coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) to investigate its efficacy and safety.

Read the detailed description

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase II study. ADR-002K (Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells) is administered to the surface of the heart in patients with ischemic heart disease who undergo CABG. The efficacy and safety of ADR-002K are evaluated until the last patient has completed the 2-year evaluation.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

LVEF (left ventricular ejection fraction)

The share of blood the heart’s main pumping chamber (the left ventricle) pushes out with each beat, measured by an echocardiogram (heart ultrasound) or a MUGA scan. About 50–70% is normal.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started Apr 2026 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Sep 2028, 29 months after the start.

Of 16 phase 2 interventional studies under Myocardial Ischemia, half reached primary completion within 29 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 19 and three quarters within 47. This study's planned 29 months is close to that.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jun 9, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
