Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Adults with ischemic cardiomyopathy (EF >10 and <40% by functional imaging [ECHO, CT, MRI, contrast ventriculography])
  • Symptomatic heart failure of NYHA Class 2 or 3
  • History of prior remote (>3 mo) myocardial infarction and/or documented obstructive coronary artery disease with corresponding dysfunctional segments by functional imaging
  • Age > 18 years
  • Ability to provide informed consent and follow-up with protocol procedures

Who cannot join

  • Documented myocardial infarction within 3 months (120 days)
  • Known or suspected left ventricular thrombus
  • Non-cardiovascular disease with life expectancy of < 3 years
  • Absence of significant gadolinium-enhanced scar (>10% of LV mass) at baseline MRIc
  • Positive panel-reactive antibodies (PRA)
  • Need for further revascularization clinically indicated at the time the patient is assessed for participation in the clinical trial. This will be determined by a cardiologist who is not an investigator in the clinical trial. No further revascularization may be indicated by no arteries with significant stenosis, the location, and extent of any stenosis may not be suitable for angioplasty, the distal vessels may not be suitable for placement of bypass grafts, and/or the patient declines angioplasty or bypass surgery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Endomyocardial injections of allogeneic Human CSps in people with Ischemic Cardiomyopathy and Chronic Ischemic Cardiomyopathy, run by Cedars-Sinai Medical Center at 1 site in United States.

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 5 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Feb 2014. 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 United States. 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.

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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 12 Feb 2014.
