Through the injection of Hearticellgram-AMI into acute myocardial infarction patients who are the primary targets of the drug, long term efficacy in the improvement of the left ventricle ejection fraction upon the first cell treatment is to be evaluated and compared with the current existing treatments (contemporary drug treatment).
This study will also compare the efficacy and safety of single dose of hearticellgram-AMI.
Condition or disease | Intervention/treatment | Phase |
---|---|---|
Acute Myocardial Infarction | Biological: Hearticellgram-AMI | Phase 3 |
We are enrolling a patient who had successful conventional percutaneous coronary intervention after acute myocardial infarction. Patients are allocated to one of three groups (group1=comparator, group2= one dose of hearticellgram-AMI).
single dose of hearticellgram-AMI have been attained new drug approval from MFDS (related to NCT01392105).

---|---|
No Intervention: Control
After implementing PCI, contemporary drug treatment is conducted. *Contemporary drug treatment is a general drug treatment (Unfractionated heparin, Low Molecular Weight Heparin, Glycoprotein llb/llla inhibitor, Aspirin, clopidogrel or Ticlopidine, Nitrate, ACE inhibitor or ARB, β-blocker, CCB, Diuretics, Statin, etc.) |
|
Experimental: Single dose of Hearticellgram-AMI
Within 30 days (+ / -7 days) after aspirating bone-marrow, approximately 1×10^6/kg (refer to usage/dosage according to mass) of autologous bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells are adminstered into the infarct coronary artery using balloon tipped catheter. Furthermore, contemporary drug treatment is conducted.

Inclusion Criteria:
- As of the date of written consent, between 20 and 75 years of age
- Those with less than 50% of the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) on echocardiography performed after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) (evaluated by investigator)
-
Who has been identified as an acute myocardial infarction in any of the following on an electrocardiogram (12-lead electrocardiography, ECG) performed before PCI
- ST-segment elevation 0.1 mV in two or more limb leads or
- 0.2 mV elevation in two or more contiguous precordial leads indicative of acute myocardial infarction (AMI)

Exclusion Criteria:
- Who have not been diagnosed with malignant blood diseases (acute myelogenous leukemia, acute lymphocytic leukemia, non-Hodgkins lymphoma, Hodgkins lymphoma, multiple myelopathy) within 5 years of screening criteria
- Patients with severe aplastic anemia
- Patients with solid cancers in their previous medical history (within 5 years)
- Patients whose blood serum AST/ASL rates are more than three times the normal maximum rate, and whose creatinine rates are more than 1.5 times the normal maximum rate (but AST in myocardial infarction patients can temporarily rise, thus, as decided by the researchers, if there is no damage to the liver function, the rise will not be taken into consideration)
