NCT00346437

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a single intracoronary infusion of Ad5FGF-4 is effective in improving exercise capacity measured by exercise treadmill testing, angina functional class, patient symptoms, quality of life, and cardiovascular outcomes. Two doses will be studied, 2.87 x 10(8) and 2.87 x 10(9) viral particles, to evaluate the dose-response of Ad5FGF-4. Short-term and long-term safety of Ad5FGF-4 will also be evaluated.

Eligibility Criteria

Age30 Years - 75 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Aged 30-75 years, male or female, with coronary artery disease
  • Patients over 50 years of age agree to undergo sigmoidoscopy, unless they have undergone such an exam or colonoscopy within the preceding 36 months with negative findings
  • CCS angina Class 2 to 4
  • Stable angina for =\>4 weeks despite antianginal drug treatment, and who are able to exercise for at least 3 minutes but no more than 10 minutes on the first qualifying baseline ETT and no more than 12 minutes on the last qualifying baseline ETT using the modified Balke exercise protocol
  • LVEF =\>30% by echocardiography, LV angiogram, or a MUGA scan undertaken within the preceding 12 months
  • Classic angina or angina equivalent associated with =\>1mm ST segment depression (horizontal or down sloping) at least in the first qualifying ETT. The variability in exercise duration (time to grade 3/4 angina or angina equivalent) does not vary by \> 20% in 2 consecutive tests
  • Single, double, or triple vessel coronary artery disease. Patients with 3 vessel disease should have at least 1 proximal major vessel or graft with \<70% stenosis
  • Patients who do not require immediate PTCA or CABG surgery
  • Provided written informed consent

You may not qualify if:

  • Unstable angina
  • CCS Class 1 angina
  • Patients in whom ECG evidence of exercise induced myocardial ischemia is difficult to detect
  • Intercurrent illness which may interfere with the ability to perform the ETT
  • Untreated life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias
  • Left main coronary artery stenosis =\>70%, unless bypassed with a patent graft
  • Coronary artery bypass surgery within the past 6 months, unless those grafts are closed
  • In situ arterial CABG other than the RIMA or LIMA, unless it is 100% occluded
  • Myocardial infarction within the last 8 weeks
  • CHF (NYHA class IV) despite treatment
  • Angioplasty within the previous 6 months
  • Prior transmyocardial laser revascularization
  • Enhanced external counterpulsation (EECP) within 12 weeks prior to study entry
  • Coronary ostial stenosis that precludes adequate catheter engagement in any target vessel
  • Coronary artery to venous communications which bypass the coronary capillary bed
  • +18 more criteria
