 - Administration of MultiStem was found to be well tolerated at all dose levels - No clinically significant changes in vital signs, allergic reactions, or infusion-related toxicities were associated with MultiStem administration - Each dose group showed improvement in mean left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), a measure of heart function, compared to baseline and relative to the registry group - Patients in the 50 million dose group had a statistically significant absolute improvement in mean 4-month LVEF relative to baseline (9.8 percentage points, representing a 23.4% improvement over baseline, p less than 0.02) - Among patients with more severe heart attacks - as measured by baseline LVEFs less than or equal to 45% - the 50 and 100 million dose groups each demonstrated better than a 25% improvement in mean LVEF at 4 months post treatment over baseline
