Purpose

The proposed study will be a prospective, open-label, single-center, safety and feasibility phase 1 trial of allogeneic bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cell (BM-MSC) delivery though cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) using a homogeneous population of infants with congenital heart disease (CHD) who will be undergoing a two-ventricle repair within the first six months of life

Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) ii. Tetralogy of Fallot with Pulmonary Atresia (TOF,PA) iii. Truncus arteriosus (TA) iv. Double outlet right ventricle (DORV) - Scheduled surgery at or before three months of age. - Parent/guardian capable of providing informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Birth weight less than 2.0 kg - Recognizable phenotypic syndrome - Associated extracardiac anomalies of greater than minor severity - Previous cardiac surgery - Associated cardiovascular anomalies requiring aortic arch reconstruction and/or additional open cardiac surgical procedures in infancy - Prior severe hypoxic event - Significant screening test values that place subjects at increased risk of complications from participation in the study

Detailed Description

This study is a prospective, open-label, single-center, safety and feasibility phase 1 trial of allogeneic bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cell (BM-MSC) delivery though cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) using a homogeneous population of infants with congenital heart disease (CHD) who will be undergoing a two-ventricle repair within the first six months of life. The dose-escalation methods with a modified continual reassessment at the five dose levels (1x10^6, 10x10^6, 20x10^6, 40x10^6, 80x10^6, cells/kg) will be performed to determine safety and feasibility of allogeneic BM-MSC infusion during pediatric cardiac surgery and the maximum tolerated dose in infants with CHD. In addition to the primary objective of assessing the safety and feasibility of BM-MSC delivery through CPB, our secondary objectives are designed to develop biological signature measures and clinical outcome measures feasible for use in larger efficacy and effectiveness trials with a particular focus on neurodevelopmental outcome and early postoperative course after BM-MSC treatment. We will determine actual magnitude of differences in neuroimaging and neurodevelopmental variables and postoperative inflammatory and pathophysiological variables after BM-MSC delivery in infants with CHD. Enrollment, follow-up, and analysis are planned to occur over 36 months for the treatment and initial follow-up portions of the study. Long-term follow-up until 18 months of age will be subsequently reported.
