Dilated Cardiomyopathy Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Effects of Autologous Intracoronary Stem Cell Transplantation In Patients With End-Stage Dilated Cardiomyopathy
Several studies have documented that transplantation of bone marrow-derived cells (BMC)
following acute myocardial infarction is associated with a reduction in infarct scar size
and improvements in left ventricular function and perfusion. The available evidence in
humans suggests that BMC transplantation is associated with improvements in physiologic and
anatomic parameters in both acute myocardial infarction and chronic ischemic heart disease,
above and beyond the conventional therapy. In particular, intracoronary application of BMC
is proved to be safe and was associated with significant improvement in the left ventricular
ejection fraction (LVEF) in patients with chronic heart failure.
In contrast to ischemic heart failure, the data on effects of BMC transplantation in
patients with dilated cardiomyopathy are limited to pre-clinical studies. In a rat model of
dilated cardiomyopathy, intramyocardial delivery of pluripotent mesenchymal cells improved
LVEF, possibly through induction of myogenesis and angiogenesis, as well as by inhibition of
myocardial fibrosis, suggesting that the beneficial effects of stem cell transplantation in
dilated cardiomyopathy may primarily be related to their ability to supply large amounts of
angiogenic, antiapoptotic, and mitogenic factors. Similarly, transplantation of cocultured
mesenchymal stem cells and skeletal myoblasts was shown to improve LVEF in a murine model of
Chagas disease.
Study Aim:
To define the clinical effects of BMC transplantation in dilated cardiomyopathy in a pilot
clinical study investigating the effects of intracoronary CD34+ cell transplantation on
functional, structural, neurohormonal, and electrophysiologic parameters in patients with
end-stage dilated cardiomyopathy.
Patients were randomly allocated in a 1:1 ratio to receive intracoronary transplantation of autologous CD34+ stem cells (SC group) or no intracoronary infusion (control group). At the time of enrollment, and at yearly intervals thereafter, we performed detailed clinical evaluation, echocardiography, 6-minute walk test, and measured plasma levels of NT-proBNP. To better-define the potential role of inflammatory response, we also measured plasma inflammatory markers (tumor necrosis factor [TNF]-α and interleukin [IL]-6) at the time of CD34+ stem cell injection. ;
