About this study

Official title: Randomised Controlled Clinical Trial of the Use of Autologous Bone Marrow Derived Progenitor Cells to Salvage Myocardium in Patients With Acute Anterior Myocardial Infarction

Study hypothesis :

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Intracoronary infusion of autologous bone marrow derived progenitor cells to patients undergoing primary angioplasty for acute anterior myocardial infarction will lead to an improvement in cardiac function greater than that seen by placebo alone.

Aims

  • To demonstrate that it is safe and feasible to deliver autologous bone marrow derived stem cells within hours of the primary angioplasty procedure
  • To demonstrate the effects of autologous bone marrow derived stem cells on cardiac function using cardiac MRI (or cardiac CT), echocardiography and left ventriculography.
  • To demonstrate the effect of autologous bone marrow derived stem cells in addition to standard care leads to improvement in cardiac function compared to patients saline(placebo) and standard care.
Being tested

Keywords
Heart attack, Anterior Myocardial infarction (MI), adult stem cells, bone marrow progenitor cells, bone marrow stem cells, autologous, left ventricular function, intracoronary injection

  2. Longitudinal change in left ventricular function as measured by LV angiography

    Measured: 6 months

  3. Longitudinal change in left ventricular function assessed by echocardiography.

    Measured: 6 months

  4. Change in left ventricular end systolic volume and change in infarct size.

    Measured: 12 months

  5. Longitudinal change in left ventricular function assessed by echocardiography.

    Measured: 12 months

  6. MACE

    Measured: 12 months

  7. Change in Quality of life

    Measured: 6 and 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study of Acute Myocardial Infarction, run by Barts & The London NHS Trust at 5 sites in 3 countries.

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 6 inclusion and 22 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 2 Mar 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in United Kingdom, Denmark, Switzerland. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Longitudinal change in left ventricular function (ejection fraction) (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT00765453, which also lists 2 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 2 Mar 2020.
