Efficacy and Safety Study of Genetically Targeted Enzyme Replacement Therapy for Advanced Heart Failure

Summary

The study is divided into 2 parts. In the first part, the safety of the gene transfer agent MYDICAR® will be evaluated. In the second part, the ability of MYDICAR® to improve heart function will be studied.
