Correlation between improvement of LV function and CD 34+ cells at 1-yr FU (Leone et al, EHJ 2005)
Which patients? • Myocardial infarction • Heart Failure • Refractory angina
Back to GISSI 1 (Volpi et al, Circulation 1993)
Effects of enalapril on long-term progression of left ventricular dysfunction in patients with heart (SOLVD, Circulation 1992)
Room for improvement • Celltype • Cell preparation • Myocardialhoming • Administration timing • Delivery method • Patientselection

Surrogate end-points: negative results (ASPIRE, EHJ 2011)
Surrogate end-points: positive results • Flecainide in post-AMI • Reducesventricularectopicbeats • Increasesmortality (CAST trial, NEJM 1991) • Ibopamine in severe HF • Improvescardiacfunction • Increasesmortality (PRIME II trial, Lancet 1997) • Torcetrapib in dyslipedemia • Improveslipidprofile • Increasesmortality (ILLUMINATE, NEJM 2007)
Time for clinical end-points • BAMI • BMSC • STEM-AMI OUTCOME • G-CSF
