Overview
Brief Summary
The main objective of the CIRCULATE project is to compare the clinical outcomes of CardioCell administration in treatment of ischemic damages of cardiovascular system with control group, who will be treated by the administration of placebo during the sham procedure.
Detailed Description
It is planned to enroll 105 patients into AMI trial with randomization into active (CardioCell) therapy and sham procedure/placebo administration with 2:1 ratio. Additional 5-10 subjects meeting inclusion/exclusion criteria will receive, in a non-blinded fashion, labelled CardioCell to determine the early uptake and retention of IMP in the target ischemic tissues. The primary research question of this project is to check if the administration of CardioCell could improve the clinical outcomes in patients with AMI. There are several secondary questions, defined by secondary endpoints, e.g.: if the investigated treatment is possible to administered, if the investigated treatment is safe and way of CardioCell administration, if it is possible to define any selected subgroup in which the treatment results are significantly different than in whole group.

Arms & Interventions
Active Group
Patients randomized to the active treatment group will receive 30 000 000 WJMSCs suspended in 20mL 0.9% NaCl and 5% albumin administered via the IRA.
Intervention: Cardiac Drug
Control Group
Patients randomized to the control group will receive 0.9% NaCl and 5% albumin injections (in the same volume as CardioCell) in the same manner.
Intervention: Placebos
Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Reduction of infarct size
Time Frame: Index hospitalization and in 6 month FU
Reduction of infarct size assessed in cardiac MRI during index hospitalization and in 6 month FU between two groups (active vs sham).
Secondary Outcomes

- Myocardial perfusion improvement(6 month FU)
- Increase of left ventricle ejection fraction (LVEF)(6 month FU)
- Left ventricle ejection fraction (LVEF) change against baseline.(6 month FU)
- Left ventricle end-systolic volume (ESV) change against baseline.(6 month FU)
- Left ventricle end-diastolic volume (EDV) change against baseline.(6 month FU)
- The occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events(1 year FU)
- Quality of life improvement(6 month and 1 year FU.)
