Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of four different strategies for preventing the ventricular postinfarction remodelling: 1) Conventional treatment for reperfunded extensive acute myocardial infarction, 2) Autologous bone marrow stem-cells intracoronary transplantation 3) mobilization of bone marrow stem-cells induced by granulocyte colony-stimulating factors (G-CSF); and 4) combined treatment (stem-cells transplantation plus mobilization with G-CSF).


Clinical Trial Description

This clinical study is a phase II randomized trial for patients with an acute extensive reperfunded myocardial infarction who undergo coronary artery revascularization with sirolimus coated stents. The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of four different strategies for preventing the ventricular postinfarction remodelling: 1) Conventional treatment for reperfunded extensive acute myocardial infarction, 2) Autologous bone marrow stem-cells intracoronary transplantation 3) mobilization of bone marrow stem-cells induced by granulocyte colony-stimulating factors (G-CSF); and 4) combined treatment (stem-cells transplantation plus mobilization with G-CSF). The investigational follow-up will be at 30 days, 4 and 9 months.Effectiveness of the therapies on neomyogenesis will be measured by Magnetic Resonance Imaging analysis of left ventricular size and global and regional function and the myocardial viability.The impact of the therapies on stent re-endothelialization and restenosis will be analysed by angiography and intracoronary ultrasounds at 30 days and 9 months. The impact of the different treatments on neoangiogenesis will be measured by infarct related artery intracoronary study of the evolution of coronary flow reserve. Also, it will be measured the haematopoietic precursors kinetic in the different treatment branches. ;
