About this study

Official title: Myocardial REGeneration by Intracoronary Infusion of Selected Population of stEm Cells in Acute Myocardial iNfarcTion. Randomized Multicenter Trial

The purpose of the study is to compare the efficiency of a sorted subpopulation of CD34+/CXCR4+ cells and unselected bone marrow-derived progenitor cells in the treatment of patients with acute myocardial infarction and a low left ventricular ejection fraction.

Read the detailed description

Aim is to compare the efficiency of sorted subpopulation of CD34+/CXCR4+ cells and unselected bone-marrow-derived progenitor cells in treatment of patients with acute myocardial infarction and low left ventricular ejection fraction. The subpopulation of CD34+/CXCR4+ cells most likely contains the tissue-specific stem cells likely to be involved in myocardial salvage/regeneration after ischemic injury. This approach is novel and original, because so far no study identified the type of cells that actually contribute to stem cell-induced improvement in myocardial function in patients with AMI which were treated with unselected population of cells. The REGENT trial (prospective, randomized, multicentre trial comparing unselected BM mononuclear cells and sorted CD34/CXCR4+ cells in patients with myocardial infarction and low left ventricular ejection fraction) successfully treated with primary percutaneous coronary angioplasty within 12 hours after the onset of chest pain. The cells are delivered by intracoronary infusion. Efficiency is assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, echocardiography and left ventricular angiography.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Autologous bone marrow-derived stem cells in people with Myocardial Infarction, run by Silesian School of Medicine at 4 sites in Poland.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 May 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Poland. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Left ventricular ejection fraction and volumes measured by echocardiography (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00316381, which also lists 4 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 May 2008.
