Pilot randomised trial to assess recruitment for a larger trial to compare the efficacy and adverse effects of the subcutaneous and transvenous ICD in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and indication for ICD therapy, with no requirement for pacing
Egyptian HCM program aims at defining incidence, severity, phenotype, genotype and determinants of the disease in Egypt, and providing state-of-the-art treatment strategies including medical, surgical and interventional procedures which are patient- and disease-specific.
This is a first-in-human, non-randomized, open-label study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacodynamics (PD) of TN-201 in adult patients with symptomatic MYBPC3 mutation-associated nonobstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (nHCM).
The EXCITE-HCM study is a randomized, controlled, blinded clinical trial designed to evaluate the effect of moderate intensity exercise training versus usual physicial activity on the improvement of HCM-related symptoms and cardiac function. About 70 participants will be recruited and randomized on a 1:1 ratio to either moderate intensity training or usual physicial activity interventions. Patients will be followed during a period of 24 weeks and assesesments as physical examination, questionnaires, 12 lead ecg's, biomarker levels, echocardiogram, Cardiac Magnetic resonance, PET and CPET will be performed to evaluate their response to the intervention.
Fatigue and dyspnea that reduce exercise performance are common symptoms in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Since the cause of this functional limitation has not yet been described, this study aims to evaluate the cardiopulmonary parameters measured at cardiopulmonary exercise test in combination with those obtained by non-invasive measurement of cardiac output by impedance (Physioflow) and echocardiography. These results will help to better define the mechanisms underlying limitation in these patients, also in relation to the degree of LVOT obstruction. The aim of the present study is to assess the cardiopulmonary response to exercise in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, based on the degree of LVOT obstruction, by adding non-invasive measurement of cardiac output by Physioflow and echocardiographic parameters to the cardiopulmonary exercise test parameters associated with stroke volume and cardiac output (ie. VO2/WR, O2pulse) Consecutive patients with a previous diagnosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy on optimised medical therapy will be enrolled to perform a cardiopulmonary exercise test with simultaneous measurement of cardiac output and an exercise echocardiogram for clinical routine.
Cardiomyopathies are diseases of the heart muscle. Known genetic factors may account for some cardiomyopathy cases but there is still much to understand about the genetic and environmental causes and how the disease progresses. Finding new ways to diagnose and treat cardiomyopathies could improve the health and well-being of patients with these conditions. This study will collect data from individuals with cardiomyopathy or related heart muscle disease, or with a possible genetic predisposition to cardiomyopathy, and follow them over time to observe the progress of their heart and health. This study will collect DNA, blood samples, and detailed clinical & lifestyle information at the start of the study, and data collected during routine healthcare visits over time. - learn what causes cardiomyopathy, and therefore how to treat it - understand why cardiomyopathy progresses differently in different people, to improve the ability to recognise who will benefit from different treatments at different times The investigators will collaborate with other centres internationally to collect a large of group of participants with similar cardiomyopathies, providing power to identify new pathways that cause disease and ways of predicting which participants are at risk of having more severe disease.
In this study, the investigators evaluated the association between various measures of adiposity [BMI and waist circumference (WC)] and clinical outcomes in Asian patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, using a nationwide population based cohort.
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common inherited monogenic heart disease. There is an abnormal increase in myocardial mass in this disorder that leads to a state of cardiac sympathetic hypertonia, which is involved in disease progression, development of arrhythmias and heart failure. Cardiac sympathetic hyperactivity may constitute a new therapeutic target in HCM patients who persist symptomatic despite conventional treatment. The hypothesis of this project is that renal denervation (a minimally invasive percutaneous interventional therapy with proven efficacy in resistant arterial hypertension) reduces cardiac sympathetic activity in HCM. The SNYPER pilot study is a non-randomized clinical trial with medical devices (proof of concept), in which a renal denervation procedure will be performed in 20 patients with genetically confirmed sarcomeric HCM, severe left ventricular hypertrophy and persistent symptoms. The impact of denervation in reducing the 123I-meta iodo benzyl guanidine (MIBG) washout rate quantified by isotopic tracing (planar imaging and SPECT) at 6 months is established as a primary efficacy objective, and the proportion of renal denervation-related complications as a safety objective. The most relevant secondary endpoints are the outcomes of renal denervation on left ventricular mass (echocardiogram), diastolic function, maximum oxygen consumption (ergospirometer), ventricular arrhythmia burden (Holter), blood pressure (ABPM), N-terminal (NT) Pro Brain Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) and quality of life (KCCQ questionnaire). The results of this study may open the development of a new, technically simple and easily accessible therapeutic line for the treatment of HCM.
Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy (HOCM) is an inherited cardiac condition which causes the heart muscle to become abnormally thick causing obstruction of blood flow in the heart. This causes debilitating symptoms including shortness of breath, blackouts and chest pain. Current treatments are not ideal as the medication is often poorly tolerated or ineffective. People with HOCM can often have an Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) to shock them out of dangerous arrhythmias. ICD's can also be used as pacemakers and are a promising treatment option, since they can alter the sequence of the heart muscle contraction thereby relieving the obstruction to the blood flow, making it easier for the heart to pump. The study will recruit patients who already have an ICD/pacemaker or who are scheduled to have an ICD / pacemaker implanted. For patients who are due to have a device implanted high precision haemodynamic, echocardiographic and electrical measurement techniques will be used to assess whether adjusting the position of the pacing lead (at the time of implant) can bring about changes in LVOT gradient and blood pressure. These patients with a new device and also patients who already have a device in situ will then go on to have atrioventricular delay (AV Delay) optimisation so we can assess what the optimum AV delay should be programmed at in order to bring about the most improvement in LVOT gradient and blood pressure. Patients will then be recruited into a medium term double blinded randomised crossover study. They will have optimum RV pacing settings turned on for 3 months. They will then return and be crossed over and have optimum RV pacing turned off for a further 3 months. The primary outcome will be to see if optimum RV pacing being turned on is effective in improving symptoms and quality of life.
