About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Heart Failure
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- 30 to 80 years of age
- Signed informed consent
- Chronic stable ischemic heart disease
- Symptomatic heart failure - New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II-III
- EF ≤45%
- Plasma NT-pro-BNP > 300 pg/ml (> 35 pmol/L) in sinus rhythm and plasma NT-pro-BNP > 422 pg/ml (> 450 pmol/L) in patients with atrial fibrillation
- Maximal tolerable heart failure medication
- Medication unchanged two months prior to inclusion
- No option for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass graft (CABG)
- Patients who have had PCI or CABG within six months of inclusion must have a new angiography less than one month before inclusion or at least four months after the intervention to rule out early restenosis
- Patients cannot be included until three months after implantation of a cardiac resynchronisation therapy device
Exclusion Criteria:
- Heart Failure (NYHA I or IV)
- Acute coronary syndrome with elevation of creatine kinase (CK) isoenzyme MB (CKMB) or troponins, stroke or transitory cerebral ischemia within six weeks of inclusion
- Other revascularisation treatment within four months of treatment
- If clinically indicated the patient should have a coronary angiography before inclusion
- Moderate to severe aortic stenosis (valve area < 1.3 mm2) or valvular disease with option for surgery.
- Diminished functional capacity for other reasons such as: obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with forced expiratory volume (FEV) <1 L/min, moderate to severe claudication or morbid obesity
- Clinical significant anaemia (haemoglobin < 6 mmol/L), leukopenia (leucocytes < 2 109/L), leucocytosis (leucocytes >14 109/L) or thrombocytopenia (thrombocytes < 50 109/L)
- Anticoagulation treatment that cannot be paused during cell injections
- Patients with reduced immune response
- History with malignant disease within five years of inclusion or suspected malignity - except treated skin cancer other than melanoma
- Pregnant women
- Other experimental treatment within four weeks of baseline tests
- Participation in another intervention trial

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The present aim is to perform at clinical double-blind placebo-controlled Cardiology Stem Cell Centre - Adipose Stem Cells (CSCC_ASC) study in heart failure patients to investigate the regenerative capacity of the CSCC_ASC treatment.
Detailed Description
The primary objective is to investigate the regenerative capacity of direct intra-myocardial injection of 100 mio. allogeneic CSCC_ASCs in patients with reduced left ventricular Ejection Fraction (EF) (≤45%) and heart failure in a double-blind placebo-controlled design.
A total of 81 patients with will be enrolled in the study and treated in a 2:1 randomization with either CSCC_ASC or placebo (saline).
The primary endpoint is change in left ventricle end-systolic volume (LVESV) at 6 months follow-up.
