Failure Due to Ischemic Dilated Cardiomyopathy. This study is designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of ixmyelocelT, an experimental product that contains your own cells IxmyelocelT contains cells which have been expanded from the subjects own bone marrow cells. (July 2015–June 2017)
Cell004: A Phase 2b, Double Blind, Placebo Controlled, Multinational, Multicenter, Randomized Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Intracoronary Administration of MYDICAR (AAV1/SERCA2a) in Subjects with Heart Failure. The study primary objective is to determine the efficacy of a single intracoronary infusion of 1 x 1013 DRP MYDICAR added to an optimal HF regimen in patients with ischemic or dilated cardiomyopathy and moderate to advanced symptoms of heart failure (HF) by reducing the frequency and/or delaying HF related hospitalizations compared to placebo treated patients. Secondary objectives will include assessment of the safety of MYDICAR by determining the incidence and severity of AEs and changes in laboratory parameters. In addition, a
third-party vendor will be employed to assess the resource utilization, health related quality of life
and const effectiveness of MYDICAR treatment compared to standard of care alone. (July 2015–

Neurocardiogenic Injury in Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
We designed a prospective observational study evaluating the clinical predictors of cardiac complications and long term outcome in the patients admitted with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. The major benefits of this study are defining prevalence and risk/protective
factors, evaluating intermediate to long term neurocardiovascular outcome and expanding our understanding of the cardiac complications related to neurologic injury in patients with SAH. As the nature of the study which is observational and questionnaire design, this study carries a minimal risk including psychological distress and anxiety during follow up interviewing and cognitive testing. We hypothesize that the cardiac complications in this population is related to a good long-term prognosis
and catecholamine related medications may impact to the clinical course of disease. The findings from this study may help to develop an evidence-based treatment. (May 2015– June 2017)
TEVA: A Double-Blind, Randomized, Sham-Procedure-Controlled, Parallel-Group Efficacy and Safety Study of Allogeneic Mesenchymal Precursor Cells (CEP-41750) in Patients With Chronic Heart Failure Due to Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction of Either Ischemic or Nonischemic Etiology. This is an event-driven study and the study duration will be determined by the number of HF-MACE events. Patients are expected to participate in this study until the required number of HF-MACE occurs. The last patient enrolled must be followed for a minimum of 6 months.
The primary objectives of this study are to:
determine whether transendocardial delivery of 150 million (M) allogeneic human bone marrow-derived MPCs (cep-41750) administered during a single index cardiac catheterization and intracardiac mapping procedure is more effective than a scripted sham cardiac mapping and cell delivery procedure in patients with chronic HF due to LV systolic dysfunction who have received optimal
medical/revascularization therapy (April 2015– June 2017)

The TRIDENT Study: A phase II Randomized, Blinded Study of the Safety and Efficacy of Transendocardial Injection of Allogeneic Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Patients with Chronic Ischemic Left Ventricular Dysfunction Secondary to Myocardial Infarction.
The TRIDENT protocol proposes the use of a percutaneous injection catheter (Biocardia Helical Infusion Catheter) as a delivery method for human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). The protocol involves use of allogeneic bone marrow derived mesenchymal cells, cultured ex vivo. The Primary Objective of this study is to demonstrate the safety of allogeneic hMSCs administered by transendocardial injection in patients with chronic ischemic left ventricular dysfunction secondary to myocardial infarction (MI). The Secondary Objective is to demonstrate the efficacy of allogeneic
hMSCs administered by transendocardial injection in patients with chronic ischemic left ventricular dysfunction secondary to MI. (June 2013– June 2017)

Gene Expression Profiling and Prognosis in Cardiomyopathy.
Primary: To validate a previously discovered molecular signature that accurately predicts the long-term prognosis of patients diagnosed with new onset heart failure and/or cardiomyopathy in an independent sample. To grow cardiac stem cells from a biopsy sample to test the hypothesis that cardiac stem cell growth and quality predict outcome in patients with heart failure.
Secondary: To correlate the gene expression levels of an established cardiac biopsy derived multigene biomarker with corresponding gene expression profiles from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). The risks of this study include: Catheterization with Heart Biopsy (part of the standard of care biopsy) The following is a list of risks and discomforts related to a heart biopsy: Unlikely risks: bleeding, infection, serious and long-lasting heart rhythm problems, injury to the pulmonary artery, blood clots in the lungs, and damage to the walls of the heart.
