About this study

Official title: Stem-Cells and Heart Failure in Several Ethiologies. Alternative Indication With Cardiac Resynchronization

Same patients with dilated myocardiopathies with large areas of fibrosis has not been as successful after Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy, for Heart Failure patients in functional class III or IV. Therefore the investigators have decided to associate the Stem-Cell implant with Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy in these patients.

Read the detailed description

About 120cc of blood are collected from the iliac bone marrow under epidural anesthesia.In the cell therapy lab this blood is harvested and mononuclear cells are separated.This procedure takes roughly 4 hours.After dilution the mononuclear cells are injected into the cardiac muscles with fibroses area through 20 shots.This procedure is indicated for patients with cardiac ischemia and left ventricular dysfunction(desynchrony), on whom all the others known therapies have failed.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Pacing and Stem Cells Implantations.Procedure or surgery

    Implantation of Cardiac Ressyncrhonization combined with the implantation of Stem Cells Hematopoietics.

  • Pacing and Stem Cells ImplantationProcedure or surgery

    Pacing and Stem Cells Implantation.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Ejection Fraction(EF)-(Eco- Sympson):It is the comparison of these measurements between late pre and post operative. NYHA: Comparison of these measurements between late pre and post operative.

    Measured: 24 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Ejection Fraction (Echo/Sympson) and functional class(NYHA).

    Measured: 24 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Pacing and Stem Cells Implantations. and Pacing and Stem Cells Implantation in people with Heart Failure, run by Instituto de Molestias Cardiovasculares at 1 site in Brazil.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jun 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Brazil. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Oswaldo Tadeu Greco, PhD (55-17-3203-4000 ext. 4038, oswaldogreco@terra.com.br), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Ejection Fraction(EF)-(Eco- Sympson):It is the comparison of these measurements between late pre and post operative. NYHA: Comparison of these measurements between late pre and post operative. (time frame: 24 months). 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 NCT00800657, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 23 Jun 2011.
