Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine cell therapy efficacy in patients with ST elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI)

Detailed Description

This study protocol describes a randomized double blind clinical trial, which main purpose is to evaluate the effect of the autologous bone marrow mononuclear cell (ABMMC) implant in 300 Brazilian pat...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Patients will be eligible if presenting all characteristics described below:
  • ST segment elevation myocardial infarction in two or more contiguous leads, and according to the WHO definition, at least one of the following two:
  • i) Presence of chest pain. ii) Elevation of the myonecrosis markers.
  • Age between 30 and 80 years old.
  • Ejection fraction ≤50% on Echocardiogram (Simpson) and segmentary dysfunction of the infarction area, measured between the 3rd and 5th day post AMI.
  • Among patients submitted to thrombolytic therapy, the angioplasty of the related artery should be preferably done up to 24h after thrombolysis, with a maximum deadline of 72h after thrombolysis.

Exclusion

  • Patients will be ineligible if presenting any of the characteristics described below:
  • AMI related artery presenting TIMI \< 3 at the moment f cell injection.
  • Left Main Coronary Artery Lesion of \>50% or multivessel coronariopathy (\>70% lesion in vessels with \>2,0mm diameter in left anterior descending, circumflex and right coronary territory) indicating the need for CABG or angioplasty with three or more stents implant.
  • Coronary anatomy, after thrombolytic reperfusion, presenting no need for angioplasty with stent implant.
  • Final Diastolic Pression of the LV higher than 30 mmHg during ventriculography for evaluating EF inclusion criteria for the research protocol (item "c" of inclusion criteria).
  • Cardiac arrest or Killip IV AMI at admission with need of ventilatory support.
  • Cardiogenic shock persisting up to the third day after AMI (with need of Intra-aortic balloon pump or vasopressors).
  • AMI mechanical complications (ventricular septal defect, papillary muscle rupture, and left ventricular free wall rupture).
  • Significant valve disease, defined as aortic stenosis (mean systolic pressure gradient across the aortic valve \>50mmHg), mitral stenosis with a valvar area less than 1,5 cm,2 moderate to severe aortic and/or mitral regurgitation.
  • Chronic use of immunosuppressive agents.
  • \> 2,0 mg/dl creatinine or previous dialysis treatment.
  • Presence of fever on the past 48h before injection glaring active systemic infection according to ACCP/SCCM (American College of Chest Physicians/Society of Critical Care Medicine) sepsis definition.
  • Sustained ventricular tachycardia 48h after AMI.
  • Illicit drugs abuse or alcohol abuse (based on DSM IV).
  • Any co morbidity, with survival impact in two years.
  • Myocarditis
  • Active liver disease
  • COPD in continuous steroids use.
  • Hematological disease, neoplasm, bone disease or hemostatic disturbances.
  • Inflammatory disease or chronicle infectious disease.
  • Presence of definitive implantation of a cardiac pace maker or cardiac defibrillator.
  • Impossibility to reach a cells suspension of 100 million mononuclear cells due to cells paucity in the bone marrow aspirate.
