  • Subject is 18 years of age or older.
  • Subject has provided written informed consent.
  • Subject has been classified as NYHA Class II or III.
  • Subject has been diagnosed with chronic non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy, defined as left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 40% and left ventricular end diastolic dimensions (LVEDd) > 55 millimeters (mm) or LVEDd/BSA > 3.0 cm/m
  • Subject was diagnosed with non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy ≥ 6 months and ≤ 5 years prior to screening visit.
  • Subject is on stable optimal medical therapy, consisting of ACE inhibitor (or ARB), β-blocker, and diuretic, for heart failure for at least 3 months
  • Subject and physician agree to switch subject from ACE inhibitors to ARB for the treatment duration.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Subject has been classified as NYHA Class I or IV

  • Subject has compromised hepatic function as measured by SGPT (ALT) or SGOT (AST) > three (3) times the upper limit of normal.
  • Subject had acute myocarditis ≤ 3 months prior to screening visit.
  • Subject has a history of diameter stenosis >70% of at least one major coronary artery, as determined by angiography or CTA obtained within the previous 5 years.
  • Subject is on immunosuppressive or immunomodulation therapy: intravenous (IV), intramuscular (IM), or oral.
  • Subject has a history of the following pre-existing heart disease:
  • myocardial infarction (MI), percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), or coronary artery bypass graft (CABG)
  • valvular heart disease requiring repair, replacement, or balloon valvuloplasty
  • hypertrophic/restrictive cardiomyopathy or constrictive pericarditis
  • Subject is currently participating in, or ≤ 6 months prior to screening visit has participated in, an investigational study of a new drug, biologic, or device.
  • Subject has left ventricular noncompaction.
  • Subject has a left ventricular assist device (LVAD).
  • Subject has received a heart transplant.
  • Subject has DCM due to any of the following:
  • amyloidosis
  • sarcoidosis
  • connective tissue disease
  • peripartum cardiomyopathy
  • alcoholism
  • endocrine dysfunction as the primary cause of DCM
  • prior illicit drug use which the investigator feels as likely cause for the cardiomyopathy

  • Subject has previously undergone immunosuppressive or immunomodulation therapy.
  • Subject has known hypersensitivity or contraindication to heparin including history of heparin induced thrombocytopenia (HIT).
  • Subject has history of drug or alcohol abuse or is currently abusing alcohol or drugs.
  • Subject has active malignancy or tumor, or other non-cardiac medical condition, which causes life expectancy to be less than one year.
  • History of neutropenia (WBC < 3,000/mm3), coagulopathy, or thrombocytopenia (platelet count < 100,000/μL) that has not resolved or has required treatment in the past 6 months.
