Safety Study of Adenovirus Hepatocyte Growth Factor to Treat Ischemic Heart Disease

August 19, 2013 updated by: zhijian yang, The First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University

Phase 2 Study of Adenovirus Hepatocyte Growth Factor for Treatment of Ischemic Heart Disease

To explore the safety and efficiency of adenovirus-hepatocyte growth factor(Ad-HGF) treatment in ischemic heart disease.

Study Overview

Status

Unknown

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

  1. Ischemic heart disease refers to a group of closely related syndromes by an imbalance between the myocardial oxygen demand and the blood supply.
  2. Gene therapy offers an attractive alternative to current pharmacologic therapies and may be beneficial in refractory disease. Gene therapy with hepatocyte growth factor induces angiogenesis, decreases apoptosis and leads to protection in the ischemic heart. In this study, we mainly explore the safety and effects of adenovirus hepatocyte growth factor for the treatment of ischemic heart disease.
