A 12-Month Follow-Up Study to Protocol 24779 (A Double-blind, Prospective, Randomized, Placebo-controlled Study to Determine the Tolerability, Efficacy, Safety, and Dose Range of Intramyocardial Injections of G-CSF Mobilized Auto CD34+ Cells for Reduction of Angina Episodes in Patients With Refractory Chronic Myocardial Ischemia [ACT34-CMI])
A 12-Month Follow-Up Study to Protocol 24779 (A Double-blind, Prospective, Randomized, Placebo-controlled Study to Determine the Tolerability, Efficacy, Safety, and Dose Range of Intramyocardial Injections of G-CSF Mobilized Auto CD34+ Cells for Reduction of Angina Episodes in Patients With Refractory Chronic Myocardial Ischemia [ACT34-CMI])
The purpose of this 12-month, observational, follow-up study is to collect additional data (by telephone contact) with which to assess the efficacy, safety, and effects of intramyocardial injections of adult autologous CD34+ cells on quality of life (QoL) in subjects with chronic refractory myocardial ischemia. No treatments will be administered during this study. However, the investigators and other study site personnel and the subjects will remain blinded to the treatment assignments from the core therapeutic study (# 24779) so as to provide a total of 24 months of blinded data.
