Overview
Brief Summary
The present aim is to perform at clinical double-blind placebo-controlled Cardiology Stem Cell Centre - Adipose Stem Cells (CSCC_ASC) study in heart failure patients to investigate the regenerative capacity of the CSCC_ASC treatment.
Detailed Description
The primary objective is to investigate the regenerative capacity of direct intra-myocardial injection of 100 mio. allogeneic CSCC_ASCs in patients with reduced left ventricular Ejection Fraction (EF) (≤45%) and heart failure in a double-blind placebo-controlled design. A total of 81 patients with will be enrolled in the study and treated in a 2:1 randomization with either CSCC_ASC or placebo (saline). The primary endpoint is change in left ventricle end-systolic volume (LVESV) at 6 months follow-up.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •30 to 80 years of age
- •Signed informed consent
- •Chronic stable ischemic heart disease
- •Symptomatic heart failure - New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II-III
- •Plasma NT-pro-BNP \> 300 pg/ml (\> 35 pmol/L) in sinus rhythm and plasma NT-pro-BNP \> 422 pg/ml (\> 450 pmol/L) in patients with atrial fibrillation
- •Maximal tolerable heart failure medication
- •Medication unchanged two months prior to inclusion
- •No option for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass graft (CABG)
- •Patients who have had PCI or CABG within six months of inclusion must have a new angiography less than one month before inclusion or at least four months after the intervention to rule out early restenosis
- •Patients cannot be included until three months after implantation of a cardiac resynchronisation therapy device
Exclusion Criteria
- •Heart Failure (NYHA I or IV)
- •Acute coronary syndrome with elevation of creatine kinase (CK) isoenzyme MB (CKMB) or troponins, stroke or transitory cerebral ischemia within six weeks of inclusion
- •Other revascularisation treatment within four months of treatment
- •If clinically indicated the patient should have a coronary angiography before inclusion
- •Moderate to severe aortic stenosis (valve area \< 1.3 mm2) or valvular disease with option for surgery.
- •Diminished functional capacity for other reasons such as: obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with forced expiratory volume (FEV) \<1 L/min, moderate to severe claudication or morbid obesity
- •Clinical significant anaemia (haemoglobin \< 6 mmol/L), leukopenia (leucocytes \< 2 109/L), leucocytosis (leucocytes \>14 109/L) or thrombocytopenia (thrombocytes \< 50 109/L)
- •Anticoagulation treatment that cannot be paused during cell injections
- •Patients with reduced immune response
- •History with malignant disease within five years of inclusion or suspected malignity - except treated skin cancer other than melanoma
