Brief Summary:
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

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) Biological: BM-MSC Phase 1

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.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cell (BM-MSC)
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.
Biological: BM-MSC
Allogeneic bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cell (BM-MSC) delivery through 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.




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number of subjects who experience serious adverse events, adverse events, and/or early treatment discontinuations. [ Time Frame: 45 days following the MSC administration ]
    Dose Limiting Toxicity is attributable to the MSC administration.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Actual magnitude of differences in neuroimaging and neurodevelopmental variables will be measured after MSC delivery. [ Time Frame: 18 months ]
    Secondary objective will be measured by using the Pediatric Cardiac Critical Care Consortium (PC4) registry system.
