it appears so. But I'm not a doctor.

The paper reports for the first time on the results from the first 10 patients in the open-label Roll-In Phase of the CardiAMP-HF Trial treated with CardiAMP therapy. Treated patients showed improvements in Six Minute Walk Distance (+47.8m ± 19.6, 20.5% relative improvement; p=0.01), improvements in New York Heart Association Heart Failure Class (40% of patients improving one class, p=0.037), and a positive trend in MLHFQ Score (-10.2 ± 7.9, 31% relative improvement, p=0.21) at six months when compared to their baseline values. The magnitude of these improvements is greater than those seen in the trial's predecessor, the double blind, Phase II Transendocardial Autologous Cell Therapy in Heart Failure Trial, which demonstrated statistical significance in functional capacity as measured by six-minute walk and quality of life as measured by the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire.
