About this study

Official title: Long-term Follow-up of Patients With Ischemic Heart Disease Treated With Combined Delivery of Autologous Bone-marrow Mononuclear Cells: 5-year Clinical Outcome of the MYSTAR Study

The MYSTAR-5-YEAR study controls the patients 5 years after treatment with combined (intramyocardial and intracoronary) delivery of autologous BM-MNCs.

The clinical endpoint of this prospective non-randomized observational study is the MACCE, defined as major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events. Patients will be investigated by echocardiography, SPECT and MRI. 2D (NOGA-guided SPECT) and 3D (NOGA-guided MRI) imaging will refine the evaluation with more exact analysis of the intramyocardial injected areas (ROI).

Read the detailed description

Background: Based on the available long-term results of cardiac stem cell therapies, it seems, that it offers short-term moderate benefits, but the long-term outcome is still matter of debate. In 2008, the Austrian arm of the MYSTAR study (a prospective multi-center single-blind trial) including patients with recent AMI and treated with combined (intramyocardial and intracoronary) delivery of autologous BM-MNCs has been completed with 1-year FUP. The MYSTAR results showed moderate but significant improvement in infarct size and LV function similar to other trials, and confirmed safety, feasibility and efficacy of BMC treatment in AMI patients. The patients enrolled in the study reach the 5 to 8 years FUP at 2011, raising the question whether the combined delivery of autologous BM-MNCs results in a long-term benefit for these patients.

Aim of the study: To investigate the long-term, 5 years clinical outcome of patients enrolled into the MYSTAR study.

Study design: Prospective non-randomized single-center Austrian long-term FUP registry.

Study patients: A total of 60 patients with previous cardiac stem cell therapy (participated in the MYSTAR study) will be included in the present study

Primary endpoint: occurrence of MACCE (major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events, including all-cause death, re-AMI, revascularization and stroke) during the mean 5 years follow-up.

Secondary endpoints: improvements of clinical symptoms, expressed as CCS and NYHA scores, change in global LV EF, measured by echocardiography, size of infarction determined by stress-rest SPECT, LV and RV volumes, function and cardiac output measured by cardiac MRI.

What is being measured

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

  1. Occurrence of MACCE

    MACCE is defined as major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events including re-AMI, TVR, all-cause death and stroke at the 5-year FUP of the patients enrolled into the MYSTAR study and underwent cardiac stem cell therapy.

    Measured: 5 years

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Clinical symptoms (CCS, NYHA)

    Measured: 5 years

  2. Changes in global EF

    Measured: 5 years

  3. Size of infarction

    Measured: 5 years

  4. Left ventricular end-diastolic and end-systolic volumes

    Measured: 5 years

  5. Right ventricular end-diastolic and end-systolic volumes

    Measured: 5 years

  6. Right ventricular cardiac output

    Measured: 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Myocardial Infarction, run by Medical University of Vienna at 1 site in Austria.

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 2 inclusion and 1 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 29 Oct 2013. 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 Austria. 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?

Occurrence of MACCE (time frame: 5 years). 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 NCT01395212, 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 29 Oct 2013.
