Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Early in the morning, bone marrow harvest under local analgesia, up to 100 ml, this takes approximately 60 minutes. Cell processing in the CEll therapy laboratory: CD133+ stem cells purification using the CliniMACS system from Miltenyi Biotech Inc. Later in the same day, and withing 24hrs from bone marrow harvest: intracoronary injection of autologous CD133+ selected stem cells, up to 10 millions cells. This procedure requires percutaneous intervention, requires approximately 60 to 90 minutes.

Treatment
Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
Patients are screened in our cardiovascular center, after acute myocardial infarct and reperfusion therapy. Patients who fulfill the inclusion criteria are asked for informed consent, this informed consent is for participation in the randomized trial, for bone marrow aspiration, for infusion of stem cell/placebo,and for baseline and follow up testing and clinical visits.
For patient allocation, we use similar sequentially numbered, sealed envelopes. Half of envelopes will contain CD133+ treatment cards, and the remaining half envelopes will contain placebo cards.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Similar sequentially numbered, sealed envelopes. Half of envelopes will contain CD133+ treatment cards, and the remaining half envelopes will contain placebo cards.

Summary
Brief summary
Our proposed research protocol involves patients presenting an acute myocardial infarction with left ventricular dysfunction. It is a phase II, prospective, randomized, 2 arms, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial recruiting 40 patients to test the safety, feasibility and the functional effect of the intracoronary administration of a selected population of Autologous bone marrow CD133+ cells as compared to placebo.
Following a successful primary or rescue percutaneous intervention (PCI) for an acute myocardial infarct (MI), patients are eligible for inclusion in this study if the following criteria are fulfilled: age between 30 and 75 years, chest pain for more than 30 minutes and less than 24 hours, ST segment elevation >1 mm in 2 consecutive leads in the limb leads or >2 mm in the precordial leads and an increase in CK or CKMB. Patients need to be < 7 days of admission for their acute ST elevation myocardial infarction, have successful stenting of the culprit stenosis with a normal thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow, a reference lumen >3mm, single vessel disease, an LVEF <50 and >25%, regional wall motion abnormalities (moderate to severe hypokinesia, akinesia, dyskinesia) in at least 2 adjacent segments on the resting Echocardiography obtained within 48 hours after the acute event, clinically and hemodynamically stable over the last 12 hours.
A total of 40 patients in the participating center will be recruited.
