Results of a phase 1, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of bone marrow mononuclear stem cell administration in patients following ST-elevation myocardial infarction.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Initial clinical trials from Europe have demonstrated that the administration of bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells (BMCs) may improve left ventricular (LV) function in patients following ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). However, results from trials performed in the United States have not yet been presented.

Methods

We developed a phase 1, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial to investigate the effects of BMC administration in patients following STEMI on recovery of LV function using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (cMRI). Forty patients with moderate to large anterior STEMIs were randomized to 100 million intracoronary BMCs versus placebo 3 to 10 days following successful primary angioplasty and stenting (percutaneous coronary intervention) of the left anterior descending coronary artery.

Results

Administration of BMC was safely performed in a high-risk cohort with minimal major adverse clinical event rates, and all patients remain alive to date. Left ventricular ejection fraction increased from 49.0% +/- 9.5% at baseline to 55.2% +/- 9.8% at 6 months by cMRI in the BMC group (P < .05), which was not different from the increase in the placebo group (48.6% +/- 8.5% to 57.0% +/- 13.4%, P < .05). Left ventricular end-diastolic volume decreased by 4 mL/m(2) in the BMC group at 6 months but increased significantly in the placebo group (17 mL/m(2), P < .01).

Conclusions

This phase 1 study from the United States confirms the ongoing safety profile of BMC administration in patients following STEMI. The improvement in LV ejection fraction at 6 months by cMRI in the cell therapy group was not different than the placebo group. However, BMC administration had a favorable effect on LV remodeling at 6 months.

Project description:Most studies on intracoronary bone marrow mononuclear cell transplantation for acute myocardial infarction involve treatment 3-7 days after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI); however, the optimal timing is unknown. The present study assessed the therapeutic effect at different times after ST-elevation myocardial infarction.The present trial was not blinded. A total of 104 patients with a first ST-elevation myocardial infarction and a left ventricular ejection fraction below 50 %, who had PCI of the infarct-related artery, were randomly assigned to receive intracoronary infusion of bone marrow mononuclear cells within 24 hours (group A, n = 27), 3 to 7 days after PCI (group B, n = 26), or 7 to 30 days after PCI (group C, n = 26), or to the control group (n = 25), which received saline infusion performed immediately after emergency PCI. All patients in groups A, B and C received an injection of 15 ml cell suspension containing approximately 4.9 × 10(8) bone marrow mononuclear cells into the infarct-related artery after successful PCI.Compared to control and group C patients, group A and B patients had a significantly higher absolute increase in left ventricular ejection fraction from baseline to 12 months (change: 3.4 ± 5.7 % in control, 7.9 ± 4.9 % in group A, 6.9 ± 3.9 % in group B, 4.7 ± 3.7 % in group C), a greater decrease in left ventricular end-systolic volumes (change: -6.4 ± 15.9 ml in control, -20.5 ± 13.3 ml in group A, -19.6 ± 11.1 ml in group B, -9.4 ± 16.3 ml in group C), and significantly greater myocardial perfusion (change from baseline: -4.7 ± 5.7 % in control, -7.8 ± 4.5 % in group A, -7.5 ± 2.9 % in group B, -5.0 ± 4.0 % in group C). Group A and B patients had similar beneficial effects on cardiac function (p = 0.163) and left ventricular geometry (left ventricular end-distolic volume: p = 0.685; left ventricular end-systolic volume: p = 0.622) assessed by echocardiography, whereas group C showed similar results to those of the control group. Group B showed more expensive care (p < 0.001) and longer hospital stays during the first month after emergency PCI (p < 0.001) than group A, with a similar improvement after repeat cardiac catheterization following emergency PCI.Cell therapy in acute myocardial infarction patients that is given within 24 hours is similar to 3-7 days after the primary PCI.NCT02425358 , registered 30 April 2015.

Project description:ObjectiveOur aim was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intracoronary autologous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BM-MSC) transplantation in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).MethodsIn this randomized, single-blind, controlled trial, patients with STEMI (aged 39-76?years) were enrolled at 6 centers in Beijing (The People's Liberation Army Navy General Hospital, Beijing Armed Police General Hospital, Chinese People's Liberation Army General Hospital, Beijing Huaxin Hospital, Beijing Tongren Hospital, Beijing Chaoyang Hospital West Hospital). All patients underwent optimum medical treatment and percutaneous coronary intervention and were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to BM-MSC group or control group. The primary endpoint was the change of myocardial viability at the 6th month's follow-up and left ventricular (LV) function at the 12th month's follow-up. The secondary endpoints were the incidence of cardiovascular event, total mortality, and adverse event during the 12?months' follow-up. The myocardial viability assessed by single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). The left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was used to assess LV function. All patients underwent dynamic ECG and laboratory evaluations. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrails.gov, number NCT04421274.ResultsBetween March 2008 and July 2010, 43 patients who had underwent optimum medical treatment and successful percutaneous coronary intervention were randomly assigned to BM-MSC group (n?=?21) or control group (n?=?22) and followed-up for 12?months. At the 6th month's follow-up, there was no significant improvement in myocardial activity in the BM-MSC group before and after transplantation. Meanwhile, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in the change of myocardial perfusion defect index (p =?0.37) and myocardial metabolic defect index (p =?0.90). The LVEF increased from baseline to 12?months in the BM-MSC group and control group (mean baseline-adjusted BM-MSC treatment differences in LVEF 4.8% (SD 9.0) and mean baseline-adjusted control group treatment differences in LVEF 5.8% (SD 6.04)). However, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in the change of the LVEF (p?=?0.23). We noticed that during the 12?months' follow-up, except for one death and one coronary microvascular embolism in the BM-MSC group, no other events occurred and alanine transaminase (ALT) and C-reactive protein (CRP) in BM-MSC group were significantly lower than that in the control group.ConclusionsThe present study may have many methodological limitations, and within those limitations, we did not identify that intracoronary transfer of autologous BM-MSCs could largely promote the recovery of LV function and myocardial viability after acute myocardial infarction.
