Autologous Transplantation of Bone Marrow Mononuclear Stem-Cells for Dilated Cardiomyopathy
Autologous Transplantation of Bone Marrow Mononuclear Stem-Cells for Dilated Cardiomyopathy: Randomized Clinical Trial

This study describes a controlled randomized clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of bone marrow derived stem-cell implants by minithoracotomy in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy and cardiac failure class III or NYHA.

Phase 2
Phase 3
Allocation: Randomized
Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study
Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment
Masking: Open Label
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Dilated Cardiomyopathy
Procedure: intramyocardial bone marrow stem cells implantation

Control group: the patients will be monitored with regular medical visits. Echocardiography: baseline,3,6,9 months. Cardiac NMR at baseline, 3 and 9 months.

Interventional group: Bone-marrow was collected from in the anterior-superior iliac crest and mononuclear stem cells were isolated by centrifugation in the density rate Ficoll-Hypaque 1.077 media. Technique - The approach was through a left mini-thoracotomy. Twenty small injections of cellular suspension were directly made through a 21F butterfly needle(total=5ml), in the anterior, lateral, posterior and apical faces of the LV ((average 9.6±2.6 x 10[7] cells). After the procedure, the patients were kept in the p.o. for a minimum period of 24hrs. They were released from the hospital in a period that varied from 5-7 days.
