Randomized Controlled Pivotal Trial of Autologous Bone Marrow Mononuclear Cells Using the CardiAMP Cell Therapy System in Patients With Ischemic Heart Failure II Trial
BioCardia, Inc.
Summary
Concentrated autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells (ABM MNC) contain potentially therapeutic cell factors and past studies support therapeutic benefit to patients with cardiac diseases of acute myocardial infarction, ischemia, and heart failure when utilized as this study is designed. The purpose of the study is to determine the safety and efficacy of CardiAMP cell therapy system in patients with ischemic heart failure. It is a prospective, multi-center, randomized, controlled, patient and evaluator-blinded study comparing treatment with the CardiAMP cell therapy system to a control procedure with diagnostic catheterization.
Description
Chronic heart failure is in need of new therapies. Over the past few years, cardiovascular regenerative medicine using bone marrow derived cells has emerged as a new treatment strategy that could have tremendous benefit in treating heart failure and are well supported by recent meta analyses of early clinical data sets. Concentrated autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells (ABM MNC) are the subject of the current study as they are supported by more clinical data than any other cell type described, and contain all of the potentially therapeutic cell factors from studies of selected cells.
