Abstract

Purpose of Review

The purpose of this review is to discuss recent advances in the field of cell therapy in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) of ischemic (iCMP) and nonischemic (dCMP) etiology, heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), and in advanced heart failure patients undergoing mechanical circulatory support (LVAD).

Recent Findings

In HFrEF patients (iCMP and dCMP cohorts), autologous and/or allogeneic cell therapy was shown to improve myocardial performance, patients’ functional capacity, and neurohumoral activation. In HFpEF patient population, the concept of cell therapy in novel and remains largely unexplored. However, initial data are very encouraging and suggest at least a similar benefit in improvements of myocardial performance (also diastolic function of the left ventricle), exercise capacity, and neurohumoral activation. Recently, cell therapy was explored in the sickest population of advanced heart failure patients undergoing LVAD support also showing a potential benefit in promoting myocardial reverse remodeling and recovery.

Summary

In the past decade, several cell therapy-based clinical trials showed promising results in various chronic and advanced heart failure patient cohorts. Future cell treatment strategies should aim for more personalized therapeutic approaches by defining optimal stem cell type or their combination, dose, and delivery method for an individual patient adjusted for patient’s age and stage/duration of heart failure.

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
