Benefits of bone marrow mononuclear cell (BM‐MNC) therapy. A and B, Intracoronary BM‐MNC delivery led to a 6.7% point improvement in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) at 6 months in the BOOST clinical trial and to 5.5% improvement in LVEF at 4 months in the REPAIR‐AMI clinical trial, respectively. C, Kaplan–Meier event‐free survival analysis in the REPAIR‐AMI at 12 months showed better survival from death, recurrence of myocardial infarction, or revascularization procedures and (D) death, recurrence of myocardial infarction, or rehospitalization for heart failure in the BM‐MNC group. Panel A was reproduced with permission from Wollert et al, Lancet, 2004,21 panel B from Schachinger et al, New England Journal of Medicine, 2006,22 and panels C and D from Schachinger et al, European Heart Journal, 2006.23 BOOST indicates BOne marrOw transfer to enhance ST‐elevation infarct regeneration; REPAIR‐AMI, Reinfusion of Enriched Progenitor Cells and Infarct Remodeling in Acute Myocardial Infarction.
