DCM Clinical Trials

Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is the most common form of heart failure (HF). The American Heart Association estimates that 4.9 million people in the Unites States have HF and of these 33% are estimated to have DCM.

Clinical Trial Information for Dilated Cardiomyopathy

IMPACT-DCM(55-0712-1)

Status: Active not enrolling patients

Study Design: Phase 2a, open-label, prospective, randomized, multicenter

Patients: Patients with a diagnosis of ischemic or non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy based on WHO criteria, symptomatic heart failure in NYHA class III or IV, left ventricular ejection fraction of ?30%, and no other cardiac intervention options likely to improve clinical status.

Purpose: To assess the safety and tolerability of ixmyelocel T surgically delivered compared to standard-of-care in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM).

Locations: Multiple sites in the United States

Publications based on study: Abstract: A.N. Patel, B. L. Hamman, B. Bruckner, O. M. Lattouf, et al. Safety and Efficacy of Ixmyelocel-T, an Expanded Patient-Specific Mixed Cell Product, in Dilated Cardiomyopathy (IMPACT-DCM) Journal of Cardiac Failure Vol. 17, Issue 8, Supplement, Page S58

Clinical Trial Information for Dilated Cardiomyopathy

Catheter (55-0811-1)

Status: Active not enrolling patients

Study Design: Phase 2a, open-label, prospective, randomized, multicenter

Patients: Patients must have a diagnosis of ischemic or non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy based on WHO criteria, symptomatic heart failure in NYHA class III or IV, left ventricular ejection fraction of ?30%, and no other cardiac intervention options likely to improve clinical status.

Purpose: To assess the safety of ixmyelocel-T delivered by catheter and transendocardial injection in patients with DCM. Two strata will be used: ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDCM) and non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (NIDCM).

Locations: Multiple sites in the United States

Publications based on study: None
