Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Adults with ischemic cardiomyopathy (EF \>10 and \<40% by functional imaging \[ECHO, CT, MRI, contrast ventriculography\])
  • Symptomatic heart failure of NYHA Class 2 or 3
  • History of prior remote (\>3 mo) myocardial infarction and/or documented obstructive coronary artery disease with corresponding dysfunctional segments by functional imaging

  • Absence of significant gadolinium-enhanced scar (\>10% of LV mass) at baseline MRIc
  • Positive panel-reactive antibodies (PRA)
  • Need for further revascularization clinically indicated at the time the patient is assessed for participation in the clinical trial. This will be determined by a cardiologist who is not an investigator in the clinical trial.

  • Viral hepatitis
  • Uncontrolled diabetes and/or hemoglobin A1C \> 8.5%
  • Abnormal liver function (SGPT \> 3 times the upper reference range) and/or hematology (hematocrit \<25%, WBC \<3000, Platelets \<100,000) studies without a reversible, identifiable cause
  • Ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation not associated with an acute ischemic episode
  • Canadian Cardiovascular Society Angina Class 3 or 4
  • History of cardiac tumor or cardiac tumor demonstrated or suspected on MRI other imaging modality
