Acronym: SAPPHIRE
Brief Summary: The SAPPHIRE clinical trial seeks to establish the efficacy and safety of repeated monthly dosing of autologous EPCs transfected with human eNOS heNOS in patients with symptomatic severe PAH on available PAH-targeted medical therapy
Detailed Description: SAPPHIRE will use autologous progenitor cell-based gene delivery to enhance lung microvascular repair and regeneration in patients with severe symptomatic PAH A total of 45 patients will be enrolled in this multi-centre late phase randomized double-blind placebo-controlled 3-arm protocol Up to nine centres across Canada will participate

Consented study participants who meet all eligibility criteria during the screening period will be scheduled to undergo apheresis Following successful apheresis collection and receipt of the cell samples by the cell manufacturing facility randomization will take place though a web-based system Manufacturing of the cell therapy product will then be performed by the cell manufacturing facility according to the assigned treatment allocation

Arm 1 Placebo Plasma-Lyte A 4 monthly IV infusions in Course 1 1st 6 months followed by Autologous EPCs transfected with human eNOS in Course 2 2nd 6 months 4 monthly IV infusions

Arm 2 Autologous EPCs transfected with human eNOS in Course 1 1st 6 months 4 monthly IV infusions followed by Placebo Plasma-Lyte A in Course 2 2nd 6 months 4 monthly IV infusions

Arm 3 Autologous EPCs transfected with human eNOS in Course 1 1st 6 months 4 monthly IV infusions followed by a repeat dosing with Autologous EPCs transfected with human eNOS in Course 2 2nd 6 months 4 monthly IV infusions

Approximately 5-9 days later the study product will be transported to the investigative site where the initial treatment will be delivered to the study participant in an outpatient setting which is equipped for continuous monitoring of vital signs and oxygen saturation Participants will subsequently be monitored for a minimum of 1 hour and discharged from the clinic once judged by the study investigator to be clinically stable

Treatment and follow-up assessments will take place over a 12-month period 11 study visits in total Once the 12-month trial data collection is completed the trial will convert to a registry with the goal of collecting long-term safety information through annual telephone contacts for 10 years Participants will be permitted to enroll in other clinical trials during the registry period
