About this study

Official title: Clinical Trial of Human (Allogeneic) iPS Cell-derived Cardiomyocytes Sheet for Ischemic

Targeting patients with severe ischemic cardiomyopathy, the purpose of this study is as follows: to confirm short-term efficacy by observing changes and transitions in cardiac function and clinical symptoms compared with each patient's baseline (before and after comparison) by human iPS cell-derived cardiomyocyte sheet transplantation, and to evaluate the safety and tolerability including the combined use of immunosuppressants.

Read the detailed description

The objective of this study is to confirm the efficacy and safety of a human (allogeneic) iPS cell-derived cardiomyocyte sheet in combination with an immunosuppressant for ischemic cardiomyopathy patients. The primary evaluation items will be improvement of left ventricular systolic function (LVEF) for efficacy, and safety will be assessed by blood tests, general laboratory tests, and other safety-related evaluations. Secondary evaluation items are NYHA functional evaluation, left ventricular remodeling evaluation by echocardiography, hemodynamic evaluation, physical activity function evaluation such as 6MWD and SAS, QOL, and exercise tolerance evaluation by questionnaires.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Human (allogeneic) iPS cell derived-cardiomyocyte sheet in people with Myocardial Ischemia, run by Osaka University at 1 site in Japan.

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 8 inclusion and 12 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Apr 2021. 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 Japan. 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 Takuji Kawamura, Ph.D (+81-6-6879-3154, saisentan@tissue.med.osaka-u.ac.jp), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The number of patients with improved LVEF (time frame: 26 weeks). The study lists 8 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 20 Apr 2021.
