Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Primary endpoint: Safety The planned i.m. MABs injections will provide knowledge on safety of autologous MABs as asCTMP by: * Monitoring HR, BP, ECG, SaO2 to assess acute adverse events * Angiography before and after cell infusion to asses vessel obstruction * Assessment of systemic inflammation and muscle markers in venous blood samples collected within first 24 hours after infusion and after 28 days. * Assessment of local inflammation in tibialis anterior muscle biopsies taken 24 hours and 28 days after infusion. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| - Secondary endpoints: *Assess homing by quantifying the number of IC-Green labelled autologous MABs in the muscle biopsy 24 hours after i.a. administration. *Assess effectiveness of intra-arterial delivered autologous MABs at the tissue level by quantifying the number of new (eMHC-positive) muscle fibers and by assessing the mtDNA mutation load in muscle biopsies after 28 days. | — |
