Filter by:Up to 72 healthy volunteers will be given a single dose of MYK-491 or placebo and be monitored for safety and tolerability over a 7 day period.
This study aims to 1)characterize the differentially expressed metabolites between cardiomyopathy patients and healthy controls,2)identify the specific biomarkers associated with outcomes or risk evaluation in patients with different cardiomyopathies in a follow-up of a cohort and 3)to determine whether differentially expressed may affect the pathological process of cardiomyopathies . Standardized protocols will be used for the assessment of medical history and examinations, laboratory biomarkers, and the collection of blood plasma.
The study objective is to identify the earliest changes in energy substrate metabolism in patients with cardiomyopathies (CMP). To achieve this objective, we plan first to test the hypothesis that patients with CMP present focal alterations in myocardial hyperpolarized [1-13C]pyruvate flux.
The aim of this randomized controlled study is to investigate the effect of continues positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and concomitant obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The primary endpoint is left ventricular function measured by magnetic resonance (improvement of at least 4%) after six months treatment with CPAP. The secondary endpoints include diastolic dysfunction, cardiovascular biomarkers and quality of life.
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) causes significant morbidity and mortality and is the third most common cause of heart failure and the most frequent reason for heart transplantation. The etiology of dilated cardiomyopathy(DCM) is complex. There is a growing body of literature suggesting that the humoral immune system activation and autoantibodies against myocardial generation play an important role in the progression of DCM. At present immunoadsorption technology has been successfully applied in autoimmune antibody removal treatment of a variety of diseases. And some applications of immunoadsorption(IA) in patients with DCM showed that immunoadsorption(IA) can indeed reduce the autoantibodies, improve symptoms and prognosis, but additional research is needed to identify indications and instruments for the IA treatment of DCM.
Biobank is a program which collects biological samples, health information and imaging data from consented patients and stored them at the core facility. These information would be used to study the molecular, imaging and outcome studies of cardiovascular health and disease.
Randomized study of medication withdrawal in patients who have recovered LV function in Dilated Cardiomyopathy.
Paediatric long-term safety follow-up clinical trial in maximum 100 children with heart failure due to dilated cardiomyopathy or congenital heart disease, from 1 day to less than 12 years of age at recruitment into the preceding short-term pharmacokinetic (PK)/pharmacodynamic (PD) trials. Pharmacodynamic measurements and renal monitoring in all children after 1 , 4, 7 and 10 months of follow-up; in addition PK assessments as well as acceptability and palatability assessments in children still under enalapril Orodispersible Minitablet (ODMT) treatment.
Paediatric clinical trial in 50 children, from 1 month to less than 12 years of age, suffering from heart failure due to dilated cardiomyopathy, to obtain paediatric pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data of enalapril and its active metabolite enalaprilat while treated for 8 weeks with enalapril in form of Orodispersible Minitablets (ODMTs), to describe the dose exposure in this patient population.
First, investigators must determine the physiological standards across age classes of myocardial stiffness estimated by Elastography in ultrafast (estimated right ventricular stiffness [VD] and left ventricular [LV]). This will be done in groups of children without heart condition, age group (10 children per group, four age groups [0-1mois, 1 month-1 year 1 year-5 years, 5 years-15years]). Secondly, investigators will evaluate myocardial stiffness Elastography (RV and LV) on different groups of children (same age group) with cardiomyopathy and examine correlations with the conventional parameters of systolic and diastolic function of both ventricles and with myocardial strain values. The total population of the study will be 120 children (40 healthy, 80 patients).
