A Phase I/II Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of JVS-100 Administered by Retrograde Delivery to Cohorts of Adults With Ischemic Heart Failure

A phase I/II study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of JVS-100 administered by retrograde
delivery to cohorts of adults with Ischemic Heart Failure.

72 subjects with ischemic cardiomyopathy. The Phase I portion (n=12 subjects) will be open
label. In the first cohort, six subjects will receive a single dose of 30 mg of JVS-100 with
a minimum of 3 days between each enrollment. After seven days following the enrollment of
the last patient of cohort 1, a safety assessment by the DSMC will be performed. Upon DSMC
approval, the second cohort of six subjects will receive a single dose of 45 mg of JVS-100
with a minimum of 3 days between each enrollment. After seven days following the enrollment
of the last patient of cohort 2, a safety assessment by the DSMC will be performed. Upon
DSMC approval, up to 60 subjects will be randomized (1:1:1) to receive a single dose of 30
mg or 45 mg of JVS-100 or matching placebo.

radiation or chemotherapy treatment, 5 years or more prior to enrollment in this
study without recurrence.

- Subjects with persistent (per ACC/AHA/EEC guidelines)53, defined as recurrent AF
