The patients had an acute STEMI and were stented within 3 days of chest pain onset; had reduced LVEF (\u2264 45% to 48%) and wall motion abnormality; and were NYHA class I, II, or III. An infusion was given to 78 of the 100 patients in the NBS10 arm and 83 of the 95 patients in the placebo arm.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp id=\u0022p-5\u0022\u003EThe patients had a mean age of 57 years, and most were men (about 80%). The mean LVEF was 34%, and the mean left ventricular end diastolic and systolic volume indices were 92 (placebo) to 98 (treated) and 58 (placebo) to 61 (treated), respectively. The time from symptom onset to stent placement was significantly longer in the NBS10 vs placebo arm (mean 931 vs 569 minutes; \u003Cem\u003EP\u003C\/em\u003E = .041).

Mortality was significantly lower with NBS10 (0 vs 3 with placebo; \u003Cem\u003EP\u003C\/em\u003E = .04). A nonsignificant dose-dependent reduction in MACEs was observed with the higher NBS10 doses (10% for \u0026gt; 14 million cells; 7% for \u0026gt; 20 million cells; 14% for placebo; 17% for \u0026lt; 14 million cells).\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp id=\u0022p-8\u0022\u003EThe primary outcome of mean change in myocardial perfusion at 6 months was \u2212142.7 with NBS10 and \u2212149.6 with placebo (\u003Cem\u003EP\u003C\/em\u003E = NS), measured by the single-photon emission computed tomography resting total severity score. A nonsignificant reduction was found for the secondary outcome of mean change in LVEF at 6 months (4.1% with NBS10 vs 4.9% with placebo). A dose-dependent improvement in LVEF was found with the higher doses of NBS10 vs placebo. A relation between greater improvement and the higher NBS10 doses was suggested by a multiple regression model adjusted for time from pain onset to stenting (\u003Cem\u003EP\u003C\/em\u003E = .045).\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp id=\u0022p-9\u0022\u003EPreSERVE-AMI showed IC NBS10 was well tolerated and safe in patients with an acute STEMI. Although there were no significant differences in the primary end point of cardiac death, recurrent MI, HF hospitalization, or coronary revascularization, there was evidence that higher doses of stem cells may improve LVEF. These findings provide some evidence that this therapy may be beneficial and should be further tested to determine if stem cells can improve outcomes in patients with acute MI.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cul class=\u0022copyright-statement\u0022\u003E\u003Cli class=\u0022fn\u0022 id=\u0022copyright-statement-1\u0022\u003E\u00a9 2014 MD Conference Express\u00ae\u003C\/li\u003E\u003C\/ul\u003E\u003Cspan class=\u0022highwire-journal-article-marker-end\u0022\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cspan id=\u0022related-urls\u0022\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/mdc.sagepub.com\/content\/14\/52\/24.abstract\u0022 class=\u0022hw-link hw-link-article-abstract\u0022 data-icon-position=\u0022\u0022 data-hide-link-title=\u00220\u0022\u003EView Summary\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \n  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\n  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cscript type=\u0022text\/javascript\u0022 src=\u0022http:\/\/mdc.sagepub.com\/sites\/all\/modules\/highwire\/highwire\/plugins\/highwire_markup_process\/js\/highwire_openurl.js?nzodgp\u0022\u003E\u003C\/script\u003E\n\u003C\/body\u003E\u003C\/html\u003E"}
