Safety Study of AMI MultiStem® to Treat Heart Attacks
- Conditions
- Acute Myocardial Infarction
- Interventions
- Biological: AMI MultiStem®
- Registration Number
- NCT00677222
- Lead Sponsor
- Healios K.K.
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine if escalating doses of AMI MultiStem® delivered by catheter can safely be given to patients that have had a recent heart attack treated with stent implantation.
- Detailed Description
The mortality rates associated with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) have significantly decreased over the past 2 decades. Beginning first with thrombolytic therapy for AMI, and more recently with growing acceptance and availability of primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for ST-elevation AMI, the mortality rates of this devastating ischemic event have decreased from almost 15% in clinical trials in the late 1980's to \<5% in recent primary percutaneous coronary intervention trials. Though AMI-related mortality has been reduced, AMI survival is often accompanied by significant loss of function that may lead to subsequent treatments, congestive heart failure (CHF) and reduction in quality of life. A cell therapy that could reduce the damage associated with AMI and positively affect heart function would provide substantial benefits to the AMI patient.

- Decreasing levels of CK/CK-MB or troponin following reperfusion
- Successful acute PCI/stent implantation (residual stenosis visually <30% and TIMI flow >2). Absence of severe disorder of the microcirculation (e.g. pulsatile flow pattern, systolic flow reversal) at the time of administration of the trial therapy
- Significant regional wall motion abnormality in left ventricular angiogram or transthoracic echocardiogram ≤48 hours post PCI

- Pregnant or lactating
- Known allergy to contrast agents
- Known allergy or religious objections to bovine or porcine products
- History of malignancy of any type except non-melanoma skin cancer
- Presence of major hematological conditions or laboratory abnormalities (low hemoglobin (<10 gm/dl), - WBC (<3,000 cells/mm2) or platelet count (<100,000 cells/mm3))
- Prothrombin time (PT) > 1x ULN

- Hepatic function: Screening ALT and AST ≥3x upper limit of normal for the laboratory or total bilirubin ≥2.0 mg/dL (exception: acceptable if patient is identified with pre existing condition e.g. Gilbert's disease that will contribute to baseline elevations of bilirubin)
- Other serious medical or psychiatric illness that, in the investigator's opinion, would not permit the patient to be managed according to the protocol.
