Recombinant Human Thymosin Beta 4 for Injection(NL005) for Acute Myocardial Infarction
A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group Phase IIc Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Pharmacokinetics of Recombinant Human Thymosin Beta 4 Injection (NL005) in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 14 May 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The goal of this phase IIc clinical trial is to learn if recombinant human thymosin beta 4 injection (NL005) works to treat heart damage in people who have had a serious type of heart attack called ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and have been treated with emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI, a procedure to open the blocked artery). It will also learn about the safety of NL005. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does NL005 lower the size of permanent heart muscle damage measured by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) scan 90 days after treatment? * What medical problems do participants have when taking NL005? Researchers will compare two different doses of NL005 to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if NL005 works better to reduce heart damage caused by the heart attack. Participants will: * Receive NL005 or placebo through a vein within 4 hours after the PCI procedure, then once a day for 7 days * Stay in the hospital for the first week for monitoring, blood draws, and electrocardiograms (heart tracings) * Have a CMR scan on Day 6 and Day 90 to measure the size of the heart injury * Return to the hospital for checkups on Day 30 and Day 90 * Be contacted by the study team (by phone or online) 3 times during the first year and come back to the hospital on Day 360 to check long-term recovery

Who cannot take part
Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.
Prior treatment
- Prior history of acute myocardial infarction, chronic total coronary occlusion, coronary thrombolysis, PCI, or coronary artery bypass graft surgery
- Participation in another clinical study within 3 months before screening
Other illness
- Diagnosis of severe acute heart failure (Killip class III or higher) or chronic heart failure (NYHA functional class III or higher)
- Severe, uncontrolled arrhythmia that cannot be corrected
- History of stroke within the past 6 months
- Current or past diagnosis of any malignancy
- History of clinically significant allergic reaction, especially known allergy to protein or biologic drugs
- Unable to undergo cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging (e.g., due to implanted metal devices, severe claustrophobia, or other contraindications)
- Any other condition that the investigator believes makes participation unsuitable (for example, the need for urgent or planned revascularization of non-LAD coronary arteries within 3 months)
Other
- Presence of aortic dissection
- Severe liver or kidney dysfunction
- Blood pressure that remains at or above 180 mmHg systolic and/or 110 mmHg diastolic despite adequate antihypertensive treatment
Who the study is looking for
- Willing and able to provide written informed consent (by the participant or legally authorized representative)
- Aged 18 to 75 years old, any sex
- Diagnosis of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) with electrocardiogram (ECG) meeting protocol-specified ST-elevation criteria, and scheduled to undergo primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)
- OR, regardless of ECG criteria, the participant has a completely or nearly completely blocked (TIMI flow grade 0 or 1) proximal or mid left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery as the single culprit vessel
- The blocked LAD artery has no visible collateral blood supply from other coronary arteries (Rentrop grade 0)
- Total myocardial ischemic time (time from chest pain onset to guidewire passage during PCI) meets one of the following: 1. More than 2 hours and less than 6 hours of ischemic time, with either post-PCI LAD TIMI flow grade of 2 or less, or left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 50% or lower measured by cardiac ultrasound during PCI hospitalization; 2. Between 6 and 24 hours of ischemic time (inclusive)
- Males and females of childbearing potential must agree to use adequate contraception (such as hormonal or barrier methods, or abstinence) throughout the study
