About
The objective is to obtain initial information regarding the safety and efficacy of the use of Filgrastim in the setting of acute myocardial infarction.
The secondary objectives are to obtain information regarding the mobilization of relevant stem cell progenitor cells by Filgrastim in this setting and to obtain further clinical information that may be helpful in the assessment of safety and efficacy of this drug as utilized.
It is a one center, randomized, placebo controlled, dose escalation, blinded study. It will be 2:1 randomization with 9 patients total.
Filgrastim 10 mcg/kg/day will be administered SQ for 5 days vs. placebo.
