E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
2-year observed mortality is significantly lower in patients receiving 2 repeated intracoronary applications of autologous bone marrow-derived cells (t2c001) compared to patients receiving 1 intracoronary application of autologous bone marrow-derived cells (t2c001) |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
2 years after inclusion into the trial |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
Efficacy endpoints: - In patients receiving 2 repeated intracoronary applications of autologous bone marrow-derived cells (t2c001), the observed mortality is significantly lower than the SHFM-predicted mortality at 2-year follow-up
Comparison between the 2 treatment groups at 2-year and 5-year follow-up - Cardiac mortality, cardiovascular mortality - Rehospitalisation for heart failure - Ischemic cardiac events (STEMI, NSTEMI, ACS) - Coronary revascularisations (PCI / CABG) - Heart transplantation, Assist-device implantation - New resynchronization therapy, ICD implantation - NYHA-Status, NT-proBNP serum levels - Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire
Prespecified combined clinical endpoints: o Death and rehospitalisation for heart failure o Cardiac Death and rehospitalisation for heart failure o Cardiac and Cardiovascular Death and rehospitalisation for heart failure o Death and myocardial infarction o Death and myocardial infarction and rehospitalisation for heart failure o Death and any cardiovascular event
Safety endpoints: - All in-hospital events (during hospitalization for cell therapy) - Life-threatening arrhythmias (sustained ventricular tachycardia; ventricular fibrillation and cardiopulmonary resuscitation) - Any new malignant disease - Bleeding events - Safety of intracoronary application of autologous bone marrow-derived cells (t2c001) (procedural complications, adverse events at 30 days, SAEs at 4 months after each cell application)
