Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: ADRCs

Adipose-Derived Regenerative Cells (ADRCs) processed by the Celution System: 0.8 x 10^6 cells/kg body weight (not to exceed 80.0 x 10^6 cells) Delivered via the MYOSTAR™ Injection Catheter in 15 intramyocardial injections

Device: Celution System
ADRCs processed by the Celution System for reintroduction into the myocardium

Placebo Comparator: Placebo

Placebo - Physiological Solution Inactive substance (Lactated Ringers + autologous blood) Delivered via the MYOSTAR™ Injection Catheter in 15 intramyocardial injections

Device: Placebo
Physiological solution made of Lactated Ringers solution and a small amount (<1mL) of autologous blood

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Primary Efficacy - Change in Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire [6 months post treatment]

    Change in Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire prior to treatment and at 6 months post treatment.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Secondary Efficacy - Change in mVO2 [6 months post treatment]

    Change in mVO2 at 6 months as assessed by Exercise Tolerance Test

  2. Secondary Efficacy - Change in LVESV/LVEDV [6 months post treatment]

    Change in LVESV/LVEDV at 6 months as assessed by Echocardiography

  3. Secondary Efficacy - Change in Ejection Fraction [6 months post treatment]

    Change in Ejection Fraction (%) at 6 months assessed by 2D Contrast Echocardiography

  4. Secondary Efficacy - Change in perfusion defect [6 months post treatment]

    Change in perfusion defect at 6 months assessed by Rest/Pharmacologic Stress SPECT

  5. Secondary Efficacy - Resource Utilization [through 12 months post treatment]

    Resource utilization - hospital length of stay, re-hospitalization for cardiac related events

  6. Secondary Efficacy - Change in heart failure symptoms, angina, and quality of life [through 12 months post treatment]

    Change in heart failure symptoms, angina, and quality of life assessed by - NYHA classification, CCS classification, MLHFQ (other than 6 months)

Other Outcome Measures

  1. Safety - Number of Patients Experiencing Treatment Emergent SAEs [Treatment through 12 months]

  2. Safety - Number of Patients Experiencing Arrhythmias Assessed via Holter monitor [Screening through 3 months post treatment]

  3. Safety - Number of patients that experience a MACE [Treatment through 12 months]

    Number of patients that experience a Major Adverse Cardiac Event (MACE)
