Overview

The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of HS-001 CS transplanted into severe heart failure patients with underlying ischemic heart disease for 26 weeks after transplantation.

Description

This is a multicenter, open-label, two-group dose-escalation, phase I/II study in 10 severe heart failure patients (five in the low-dose group and five in the high-dose group) with underlying ischemic heart disease.

After screening period is completed, subjects undergo HS-001 CS transplantation. After transplantation, subjects take immunosuppressant and have efficacy/safety assessments.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with resting left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≦40% based on institutional assessment on either screening cardiac MRI or echocardiographic assessment
  • New York Heart Association (NYHA) cardiac function classification of grade II or higher at screening
  • Other Criteria apply, please contact the investigator

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients screened less than 1 month after the onset of myocardial infarction
  • Patients with congenital heart disease, or cardiac sarcoidosis
  • Other Criteria apply, please contact the investigator
