About this study

Official title: Long-term Evaluation and Follow-up Care of Patients Receiving Intracoronary Bone Marrow-derived Cell Administration for Heart Disease

This study will provide follow-up information and care of patients who have undergone autologous intracoronary bone marrow cell administration at our institution. Patients are monitored for their response to treatment, progression of heart failure and coronary artery disease, and potential later occurring effects of the administered bone marrow cells.

Patients are eligible for this follow-up study if they have received their first intracoronary bone marrow cell administration for the treatment of cardiac disease at our institution from 2001 ongoing.

Read more

Participants are generally seen in the clinic at 12 months and 5 years after cell administration, in the meantime regular yearly telephone contacts are performed until 10 years after cell transplantation.

The detailed description contains the planned procedures that are performed during the clinical visits and, if necessary, at additional contacts.

Read the detailed description

In detail, the following procedures are performed during the clinical visits and, if necessary, at additional contacts:

  • periodic physical examination and blood tests
  • non-invasive imaging studies may include echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging
  • electrocardiogram at rest and during treadmill testing (may include spiroergometry testing)
  • interrogation of implanted defibrillators / pacemakers for monitoring of arrhythmias
Being tested
autologous bone marrow-derived cells
Medical subject headings
Cardiomyopathy, Dilated, Heart Failure

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 0 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Feb 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evaluation of procedural and long-term safety of intracoronary administration of bone marrow cells for the treatment for cardiac disease (time frame: 10 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00962364, which also lists 6 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Feb 2020.
