Results from the SCIENCE and Danish ASC trials using allogeneic mesenchymal stromal cells to treat ischemic heart failure patients.
Trial report in Regenerative medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND
aimsAllogeneic mesenchymal stromal cell (ASC) therapy is a potential treatment option in patients with ischemic heart failure (HF). We aimed to investigate the effect of allogeneic Cardiology Stem Cell Center Adipose tissue derived mesenchymal Stromal Cell product (CSCC_ASC) by joining data from the international SCIENCE and the Danish ASC trial.
methodsData from two double-blinded placebo-controlled phase II studies including patients with same inclusion and exclusion criteria and identical endpoints were combined. Patients had left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 45% and New York Heart Association (NYHA) II-III without further treatment options.
resultsTwo hundred and fourteen patients were randomly assigned to receive CSCC_ASCs or placebo injections. There was no difference in baseline characteristics between groups.No significant differences from baseline to 6-month follow-up were detected between the intervention and placebo-group in left ventricular end-systolic volume, end-diastolic volume or LVEF (
conclusionsPost-hoc analysis demonstrated that a single intramyocardial CSCC_ASC injection in patients with chronic ischemic no-option HF did not improve cardiac function.
