Study hypothesis
|
BOOST-2 examines 3 principle hypotheses:
1st hypothesis:
An intracoronary infusion of high-dose, non-irradiated Bone Marrow Cells (BMCs) is superior to an intracoronary infusion of control cells
2nd set of hypotheses:
1. An intracoronary infusion of high-dose BMCs (irradiated and non-irradiated) is superior to an intracoronary infusion of control cells
2. An intracoronary infusion of low-dose BMCs (irradiated and non-irradiated) is superior to an intracoronary infusion of control cells
3. Low-dose BMC-transfer (irradiated and non-irradiated) is not inferior to high-dose BMC-transfer (irradiated and non-irradiated)
3rd set of hypotheses:
1. An intracoronary infusion of non-irradiated BMCs (low-dose and high-dose) is superior to an intracoronary infusion of control cells
2. An intracoronary infusion of irradiated BMCs (low-dose and high-dose) is superior to an intracoronary infusion of control cells
3. Irradiated BMC-transfer (low-dose and high-dose) is not inferior to non-irradiated BMC-transfer (low-dose and high-dose)

Please note that as of 13/08/10 the end date of this trial has been extended from 31/12/09 to 13/12/2013. The trial is currently in the recruitment phase.
BOOST-2 is a randomized-controlled, double-blind, multicenter clinical trial investigating the effects of intracoronary nucleated BMC-transfer in patients after Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI). BOOST-2 will investigate whether intracoronary BMC-transfer will have an effect on Left Ventricular (LV) functional and structural regeneration and have an impact on clinical endpoints as compared to a placebo cell infusion (erythrocytes only). BOOST-2 will address a number of biological and procedural issues. Irradiation of BMCs will be performed in two groups of patients just prior to intracoronary transfer. This study arm will reveal whether replication-competent cells (non-irradiated cells) are required for regeneration after AMI. In addition, BOOST-2 will address the question whether dose matters in BMC-therapy for AMI.
BOOST-2 has six groups of patients:
1. Low dose, placebo cell infusion (20 patients)
2. High dose, placebo cell infusion (20 patients)
3. Low dose, non-irradiated BMC infusion (40 patients)
4. High dose, non-irradiated BMC infusion (40 patients)
5. Low dose, irradiated BMC infusion (40 patients)
6. High dose, irradiated BMC infusion (40 patients)

Primary outcome measure(s)
|
Change in LV Ejection Fraction (LVEF) from baseline to 6 months follow-up (assessed by MRI).
The primary endpoint will be analyzed separately in four subgroups:
1. Patients with a baseline LVEF smaller/larger than the median of the study population (assessed by MRI)
2. Patients undergoing PCI/stenting earlier/later than the median in the study population
3. Patients with an infarct size smaller/larger than the median of the study population (assessed by late contrast enhancement MRI)
4. Patients with a functional regenerative capacity of the infused bone marrow cells smaller/larger than the median of the study population
Additional subgroups will be analyzed in an exploratory manner.
|
|
Secondary outcome measure(s)
|
1. Change in LVEF from baseline to 18 months follow-up (assessed by MRI)
2. Changes in LV end-diastolic volume index, LV end-systolic volume index, infarct size (late enhancement), regional LV function, and myocardial perfusion from baseline to 6 and 18 months follow-up (assessed by MRI)
3. Changes in LV diastolic function from baseline to 6 and 18 months follow-up (echocardiography)
4. Exercise capacity at 6 and 18 months follow-up (cardiopulmonary exercise testing)
5. Quality of life (Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire) and New York Heart Association (NYHA) class at 6 and 18 months follow-up
6. Combined clinical endpoint of death and hospitalization with heart failure
